Record Store Day has announced its Black Friday 2026 release lineup, with exclusive records and other formats scheduled for independent stores on Nov. 27. The list includes live recordings, rarities and reissues from artists spanning Skid Row, Prince, Joni Mitchell, King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard and others; availability and store-level stock details are not specified in the report.

Record Store Day has announced its Black Friday 2026 slate, a collection of exclusive releases set for independent record stores on Nov. 27. The lineup includes previously unreleased live recordings, archival material, reissues and new editions from artists including Skid Row, Frank Black, King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard, Prince and Joni Mitchell.

Among the announced titles are Skid Row’s “Live At The Moscow Music Peace Festival” and a previously unreleased live disc included with the 30th-anniversary reissue of Frank Black’s “Teenager Of The Year.” The report describes both as previously unheard live collections. Ween’s “Shinola, Vol. 2” is listed as a two-LP set of outtakes, fan favorites and rare B-sides spanning the band’s recording career.

King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard will add “Expand Your Mind: Songs In 3D” to its Bootlegger series. The live recordings are from Bulgaria, and the release is billed as a first-ever 3D zoetrope record and is to include 3D glasses. Other formats appear in the slate: TV Girl’s catalog is to be collected on one CD titled “Four Classic Albums,” while J.I.D is releasing audio from his NPR Tiny Desk concert.

The lineup also includes “America,” an EP by Run-DMC’s Daryl “DMC” McDaniels made with rock musicians including Sebastian Bach, Mick Mars, Duff McKagan and Travis Barker, according to the report. Live albums are listed from artists such as Bruce Springsteen, Jeff Tweedy, Marianne Faithfull, Funkadelic and Billy Joel, alongside jazz recordings associated with Stan Getz, Charlie Parker and Bill Evans. Noah Kahan, KATSEYE and Masayoshi Takanaka are among other artists named.

A Broad Slate for Independent Stores

The announcement gives collectors and independent record shops an early look at a wide-ranging Black Friday release program. The titles cover multiple eras and genres, and include releases that are described as previously unreleased, such as the Skid Row live set and Frank Black’s bonus disc. That may make the event relevant both to fans seeking new archival material and to shoppers looking for special editions.

The list also spans vinyl and CD releases, rather than focusing only on LPs. TV Girl’s catalog compilation and J.I.D’s Tiny Desk audio are examples of formats and source material that broaden the announced selection. The report does not provide prices or quantities, so the announcement establishes which releases are planned but does not show how easy they will be to find or what they will cost.

Black Friday’s Record Store Day Edition

Record Store Day is a recurring event built around special releases distributed through independent record shops. Its Black Friday edition is a separate seasonal release date from the event’s main annual edition. The 2026 date given in the announcement is Friday, Nov. 27, when the listed releases are scheduled to reach participating stores.

The report describes the slate as a familiar mix of rarities, new color variants and vinyl returns, alongside new collections and live recordings. It also notes one notable omission: no 20th-anniversary edition of Clipse’s “Hell Hath No Fury” is included, despite the album’s anniversary falling that weekend. The absence is specific to the reported list and does not explain whether a release could be announced separately.

““previously unreleased outtakes, fan favorites and rare B-sides spanning the length of the band’s recording career””

Prices, Stock and Store Details

The report lists planned titles and the event date but does not state retail prices, pressing quantities, participating-store allocations or whether every listed release will be available at every shop. It also does not provide a complete track listing or detailed product specifications for most titles. Readers should treat the lineup as the announced slate, not as confirmation of local stock.

The account says Clipse’s “Hell Hath No Fury” anniversary edition is not on the list, but it gives no reason for that omission and does not rule out a separate announcement. The report points readers to Record Store Day’s site for the full release list; additional product or store information may be published there.

Check the Final Store Listings

The releases are scheduled for Nov. 27, 2026. Readers interested in a particular title can consult Record Store Day’s full list and check with independent shops about ordering, allocation and opening-day availability. Until stores publish their own information, local stock and purchasing arrangements remain unconfirmed.
