From Pitchfork:
The few, the proud, the independent record stores. With the rest of the economy joining the music business in a perilous free fall, indie shops are getting hit hard right now. But help is on the way in the form of the second annual Record Store Day, which will be celebrated April 18 at mom and pop favorites around the country. As an incentive to get customers into the shops, Matador is releasing several sweet limited edition vinyl specials. There's a 7" with Sonic Youth covering Beck's "Pay No Mind" on the A-side and Beck doing SY's "Green Light on the flip, a previously unreleased LP of a 1997 Pavement gig from Cologne, Germany and another 7" with Jay Reatard's "Hang Them All" on the top and Sonic Youth's "No Garage" on bottom. Start drooling. Only 2,500 copies of each record will be available at participating Record Store Day spots, so plan your camp-out accordingly. Nice and orderly-like: Matador Record Store Day Limited Edition Vinyl: Pavement: Live in Germany [Cologne, 1997] Pay No Mind 7" A1: Sonic Youth: "Pay No Mind" (Beck cover) B1: Beck: "Green Light" (Sonic Youth cover) Hang Them All 7" A1: Jay Reatard: "Hang Them All" B1: Sonic Youth: "No Garage" |

Now that I've had a moment to calm down: "Pay No Mind" is a brilliant track. And probably one of the strangest choices for SY. So I'm super, super excited. And what the fuck is "No Garage" ???

Green Light really suits Beck, and pay no mind is like T's acoustic works

To be honest, if there's 2500 copies of each, I can't see them being too hard to get hold of, even if you're not close to a participating store (though it might mean paying slightly more on eBay or something) - there were 1500 white copies of the Erase Errata split, and they're still pretty easy to find for about $5-$10.
