Parlophone Records and its imprint label Regal are issuing 12 ultra-limited edition 7” vinyl singles to celebrate UK Record Store Day on April 17th.
The series will be limited to a run of 1000 copies of each vinyl and features a diverse selection of artists from The Beatles to Tinie Tempah.
Each release will come in a specially designed, vintage-style paper Parlophone house bag and uses elements of historic sleeves from the 1960’s to the present day.
Bat For Lashes, Pet Shop Boys and Hot Chip will all be releasing previously unheard material on their respective 7”'s while the remaining acts will issue tracks that have been previously available.
Neil Tennant, of the Pet Shop Boys, said: "Independent record stores play a vital role in selling music from the fringe as well as the mainstream. We're delighted to be releasing a one-off vinyl single only available in independent shops as part of Record Store Day."
The releases will only be available in participating independent record stores around the UK. You can see the more details here.
