Van Halen, Stevie Nicks, Motley Crue Part of Record Store Day

For the first time, Van Halen will release the 1993 live album Live: Right Here, Right Now on vinyl. The four-LP set features all 24 songs that originally appeared on the original CD version, plus three additional live recordings – “The Dream Is Over,” “Eagles Fly” and “Mine All Mine” – that were not included on the 1993 album.

The vinyl set of Live: Right Here, Right Now will be limited to 7,500 copies for Record Store Day. Notably, this marks the first Van Halen reissue focusing on the band’s Sammy Hagar era, with further vinyl releases highlighting that period of the band’s career reportedly on the way.

Stevie Nicks’ Bella Donna Live 1981 will be released on vinyl for the first time this Record Store Day. Recorded during her White Winged Dove Tour, the tracks include the beloved Bella Donna tunes “Stop Draggin’ My Heart Around,” “Leather and Lace” and “Edge of Seventeen,” along with Fleetwood Mac classics “Gold Dust Woman,” “Dreams,” “Sara” and “Rhiannon.”

Motley Crue’s Record Store Day release will be a vinyl EP including four songs: “Helter Skelter,” “Red Hot,” “Live Wire” and “Piece of Your Action.” The 12-inch picture disc also features new images from the band’s infamous “blood” photo session, along with a bonus picture on a paper insert.

The annual Record Store Day will take place on April 22 at independent shops across the country. The complete list of releases, along with participating stores, can be found on the Record Store Day website. We’ve highlighted a handful of other notable classic rock releases below.
