Vinyl From Pink Floyd, ‘KPop,’ Springsteen, Katseye, 350 More
What do you get when you combine Pink Floyd with Katseye? No, not pink-eye… you get the wild-ranging roster for Record Store Day 2026. The full lineup of exclusive releases, mostly but not entirely in the vinyl format, includes more than 350 titles that will be offered only in independent record shops on April 18, certain to be the biggest record retail day of the year.
Although Record Store Day is often associated with classic rock releases, this year’s roster has plenty from contemporary pop artists. Although there are no Taylor Swift or Olivia Rodrigo titles, as there have been in some other RSD rollouts in recent years, the 2026 lineup includes pop favorites like Olivia Dean, the “KPop Demon Hunters” soundtrack, the “Wicked” cast, Charli xcx, Carly Rae Jepsen, Madonna, Dijon, PinkPantheress, Niall Horan, Gigi Perez, Bruno Mars, pop-punk favorites Fall Out Boy and, yes, the mania-stirring women of Katseye.
But on the rock front, vinyl hounds can look forward to previously unreleased material or catalog reissues from — besides a widely anticipated Floyd set — vinyl LPs (and the occasional CD) from Bruce Springsteen, Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers, Weezer, Talking Heads, Elton John, the Grateful Dead, Deadheaven, Paramore, Muse, Robert Plant, Judas Priest, Brian Wilson, Crosby, Stills & Nash, Jeff Buckley, Cream, John Lennon, George Harrison, KISS, the Who, the Doors, the Cure, the Rolling Stones, Todd Rundgren, Yes, David Bowie, Rod Stewart, Steely Dan and countless others.
Classic singer-songwriters will be well-represented with releases from Joni Mitchell and John Prine, and the modern era of that with Brandi Carlile and Lucy Dacus. Jazz has its usual plethora of previously unreleased material, including some never-before-heard John Coltrane and live sets from Bill Evans, Ahmad Jamal and any more. It’s a lighter year than some others have been for hip-hop and country, but those genres are represented as well, from Polo G to Waylon Jennings studio outtakes and a Billy Strings live EP.
Look here for the full list of releases, which are being issued in quantities from the low 100s up to 20,000 (the number given for Fall Out Boy’s slightly less limited edition). Note: “RSD First” means the project may come out later in a wider release; “RSD Exclusive” means this pressing really is a one-time thing, although in some cases the exclusivity is about the cover art or vinyl color and there still could be a wider release with different packaging.
We can’t highlight all 360 or so releases here — again, refer to the RSD site for full details — but we can put the spotlight on about a tenth of those exclusives, with a focus on what look likely to be some of the more popular or mainstream items:
Pink Floyd, “Live From the Los Angeles Sports Arena, April 26th, 1975”
On LP: 15,400 in U.S.; 30,000 worldwide; on CD: 7,100 in U.S.; 20,000 globally
This live album came out in December as part of the “ Wish You Were Here” 50th anniversary boxed set but was only included on a Blu-ray component. Fans hungered to have it on either vinyl and/or CD, and now they are getting both those wishes with this stand-alone release. The concert was originally recorded by a famous bootlegger in the audience, and got an audio upgrade from Steven Wilson’s skills; it is considered extremely high-quality for a so-called audience recording. (The LP version is RSD Exclusive; the CD version is RSD First.)

Bruce Springsteen, “Live from Asbury Park 2024”
LP edition: 6,050 copies in the U.S.; 12,000 globally; CD edition: 3,700 in the U.S.; 10,000 globally
Previously available only on Nugs and never on a physical format, this captures his homecoming performance in Asbury Park at the 2024 Sea.Hear.Now festival and spans over three hours of performances in front of 35,000 people across 5 LPs or two CDs. (The LP version is RSD Exclusive; the CD set is RSD First.)

8,000 copies in the U.S.
The songs “Touch” and “Gabriela” are heard in both “tour” and a cappella versions on one side of a 12-inch disc, pressed on pink-and-red splatter viny, with an etching on the B-side. Previously unavailable. (RSD First.)

Ariana Grande/Cynthia Erivo, “Wicked: One Wonderful Night (Live) – The Soundtrack”
7,000 copies in the U.S.
The 2-LP set, on splatter color vinyl, offers the audio from the recent NBC special, with not just the two above-the-title stars but also Jeff Goldblum, Bowen Yang, Ethan Slater and Marissa Bode, backed by a 37-piece orchestra led by Stephen Oremus. (RSD First.)

Brandi Carlile, “Live at Easy Street Records Vol. II”
8,000 copies in the U.S.
Carlile brought the Hanseroth Twins and SistaStrings with her to a record release party at Seattle’s preeminent retail shop, celebrating her 2025 “Returning to Myself” album. That set is captured on this LP, a sequel to her first live album, also recorded at Easy Street, from 20 years ago. This LP marks the first release of the performance from a few months ago in any form. (RSD Exclusive.)

Various Artists, “KPop Demon Hunters (Soundtrack from the Netflix Film) – HUNTR/X Edition” and “KPop Demon Hunters (Soundtrack from the Netflix Film) – Saja Boys Edition”
10,000 copies each in the U.S.
Two different “special effect vinyl” editions of the soundtrack featuring original art cover by Marion Bordeyne plus a fold-out poster, sticker sheet, and three snapshot cards (3 of 12 versions). These aren’t the only chances to get the “Demon Hunters” soundtrack on vinyl, but these two editions are exclusive to RSD, for anyone collecting ‘em all. (RSD Exclusive.)

Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers, “July 16, 1978 – Paradise Theater, Boston, MA”
8,000 copies in the U.S.; 8,700 globally
The tour behind their “You’re Gonna Get It” album was recorded on 2-track at the Paradise and broadcast by local rock radio station WBCN-FM. While bootlegs have been out there for decades, the Petty estate is finally making the concert officially available, with audio restoration done by Ryan Ulyate. It’s on 180g pink and green translucent splatter color vinyl and contains a vintage-style tour sticky pass.

Fall Out Boy, “So Much For (2our) Dust: Live At Madison Square Garden”
20,000 copies in U.S., 21,200 worldwide
The first release of the band’s 2024 Madison Square Garden concert, on a 3-LP set with 32 songs. The performance was previously available as a livestream and VOD film, but the audio has never been released as a standalone item.

Olivia Dean, “BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge”
11,000 copies
Fresh from a Grammy win for best new artist, Dean will offer a live performance of her smash “Man I Need” backed with a cover of Ravyn Lenae’s “Love Me Not,” as performed on BBC 1 Live Lounge. These were only previously available on YouTube via her performance videos. (RSD First.)
Bruno Mars, “The Collaborations”
11,000 copies in the U.S.
The only release that was announced prior to now, when Mars was announced as RSD 2026 Ambassador a week before the rollout. It’s a compilation album of his collabs, like “Uptown Funk” with Mark Ronson, “Die With A Smile” with Lady Gaga, “APT.” with ROSÉ, and more, in a one-time pressing just for this occasion. (RSD Exclusive.)
Weezer, “1192”
3,000 copies in the U.S., 4,000 globally
These are said to be Weezer’s very first studio sessions, forgotten and recently rediscovered by Matt Sharp, with “raw, vividly emotional and ecstatic versions” by the original lineup of songs that went on to be on the group’s “blue” debut album. The album is named named after the month and year it was originally recorded. (RSD First.)

Neil Young & the Chrome Hearts, “The Live Album”
6,000 copies in the U.S.
Young’s new live album will be released initially exclusively for RSD. A standard CD and vinyl will follow on May 1. But this edition is on clear vinyl with an exclusive lyric poster and gatefold jacket. The track list includes classics like “Ohio,” “Harvest Moon” and “Like a Hurricane” as well as newer-vintage material, recorded on the 2025 “Love Earth” tour. (RSD Exclusive.)
Madonna, “The Confessions Tour – Live From London”
5,700 copies in the U.S., 16,500 globally
Recorded live at Wembley Arena in August of 2006, the two-LP set captures 13 tracks, on starburst pink/purple splatter vinyl. (RSD Exclusive.)

Joni Mitchell, “For the Roses”
3,500 copies in the U.S.; 6,350 globally
For her 1972 album, MItchell originally had intended the album cover to feature a horse with roses coming out of its rear end, reflecting her view of the music business. Eventually cooler heads (or asses) prevailed, and she compromised and agreed to use the Joel Bernstein photo that was ultimately the album’s cover, but this limited edition for Record Store Day restores her original vision for the cover for the first time. On rose color vinyl. (RSD Exclusive.)

Dijon, “How Do You Feel About Getting Married?”
4,900 copies in the U.S. and Canada

2,000 copies in the U.S.
An unreleased track, originally recorded for her 2019 album “Dedicated” before being left on the cutting-room floor. A demo leaked online but this is the first release of the finished track, on baby blue 7” vinyl with a disco ball etching on Side B. (RSD Exclusive.)

Billy Strings, “Live from NPR’s Tiny Desk”
7,000 copies in the U.S.
A 12-inch EP on “milky white” vinyl brings Strings’ live set from NPR’s desk to yours, and features the virtuoso and his band getting a big sound out of “Red Daisy,” “My Alice,” “Malfunction Junction” and Gild the Lily.”
Crosby, Stills & Nash, “The Solo Albums”
1,950 copies in the U.S.; 4,400 globally
An ingenious idea for a boxed set: bundling the debut solo albums that were released by David Crosby, Stephen Stills and Graham Nash in the wake of the CSNY smash “Déjà vu” — with a fourth LP of demos and sessions from all three albums. (RSD Exclusive.)

The jacket is foil-stamped and numbered. A few of the tracks have been previously issued on CD deluxe editons, but the last four tracks on side B have been unreleased in any format. (RSD Exclusive.)
Lucy Dacus, New Lucy Dacus Song
2,000 copies in the U.S.
Not much information on this 7-inch single yet — not even a title (mysterious!) — but it is said to be the premiere physical release of a song that is otherwise available digitally.

Haim, “Relationships”
1,500 copies in the U.S.
A four-track 12-inch EP on clear vinyl includes the Grammy-nominated title track, from last year’s “I Quit” album, plus three bonus tracks not previously on the format: “Tie You Down (with Bon Iver),” “The Story of Us” and “Even the Bad Times.”

Bill Evans, “At the BBC”
3,500 copies in the U.S.; 5,500 globally
Bill Evans is nearly synonymous with RSD, at least to a certain subset of jazz aficionados who reliably look forward to the releases that come from the vault and his estate. This two-LP set is the first official release of a Bill Evans Trio show at the BBC Television Theatre in March 1965, with an extensive booklet with photographs from the show and liner notes by authority Marc Myers. (RSD Exclusive.)

Muse, “Muscle Museum” and “Muse”
2,500 copies each in the U.S.; 11,170 copies each globally
Muse is putting out two 12-inch EPs from early in the band’s career that had never been out on vinyl before. “Muscle Museum,” from 1999, has four songs that later appeared on “Showbiz,” in earlier, different versions, plus a B-side.

2,000 copies in the U.S.
A 75th anniversary reissue of Davis’ first album as a bandleader, cut AAA from the original mono tapes by Kevin Gray. The 10-inch vinyl is housed in a Stoughton tip-on jacket… yes, “tip-on” is a magic word to RSD junkies.

4,500 copies in the U.S.; 13,000 globally
It’s the first live album from the ethereal French band, recorded in Athens under the Acropolis on their 2024 – 2025 tour.

Steely Dan, “Alive in America”
4,000 copies in the U.S.
An official Steely Dan album that has never been available on vinyl, until now? Hard to believe but true. This two-LP set marks what the label calls “an audiophile-grade document” of the duo’s first reunion tour in the mid-1990s.

The Record Store Day Rolling Stones 3″ Turntable Set
2500 copies of the full turntable set; 1,500 additional single copies of each record
