  Neil Young - Before and After - Reprise
  On Before and After, Neil Young chooses favorites from his playbook like a trip into his music history and performs them mostly alone on a solo acoustic journey. Each of the songs blend into each other and morph with mesmerizing clarity into a continuous flow of music creating a 48-minute pure and intimate listening experience. The 13-track album spans Neil’s career, from Neil’s early Buffalo Springfield contribution, "Burned" (1966) to the recent "Don't Forget Love"(2021) and includes the previously unreleased song “If You Got Love”. As Neil put it on his NYA site: "Songs from my life, recently recorded, create a music montage with no beginnings or endings. The feeling is captured, not in pieces, but as a whole piece. Only for listening."

  Stephen Marley - Old Soul - Island / Tuff Gong
  Stephen Marley is one of the most respected artists in reggae and pop, with eight GRAMMY® Awards from his career as a solo artist, as a producer and as a member of his family band, Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers. His brand-new album, Old Soul, is his fifth, and is releasing on UMe in partnership with the Marley Family, Tuff Gong and Ghetto Youth International. It’s Stephen stretching himself as a singer and songwriter, bringing along some special guests in a wide range of material beyond the reggae category. Among its 14 tracks is the title song, released as a single on Stephen’s fortuitous birthday, 4/20 – which also got a lyric video on Father’s Day Weekend – plus “Winding Roads,” a collaboration with Jack Johnson and the Grateful Dead’s Bob Weir; a new version of his father’s song, “I Shot the Sheriff,” with Eric Clapton, who made the song globally famous, on guitar; two songs with his brothers; and unique covers of the traditional pop songs, “Georgia On My Mind” and “These Foolish Things,” both transformed into modern ska singalongs.

  The Beatles - Now and Then - Capitol
  The Beatles’ double-A-side single for “Now and Then” and “Love Me Do” pairs the last Beatles song with the band’s first UK single. Powerful musical bookends to The Beatles’ recorded canon, both songs are also featured in the expanded 2023 Editions for 1962-1966 (‘The Red Album’) and 1967-1970 (‘The Blue Album’). “Now and Then” is the last Beatles song, written and demoed by John Lennon in the mid/late 1970s. With John’s voice now pristine in the mix, “Now And Then” features elements from the 1995 sessions including George Harrison’s guitar parts, and vocal and instrumental parts recorded by Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr in 2022, along with a new arrangement for strings. Produced by Paul and Giles Martin, “Now And Then” is the last song recorded by all four Beatles, a powerful and fitting finale for the band’s timeless recordings. The song that started it all, “Love Me Do” was The Beatles’ first UK single in 1962. For the first time, the iconic song has been de-mixed using machine aided learning and remixed in true stereo. “Love Me Do” launched The Beatles’ journey to unparalleled worldwide success and acclaim that continues to this day.

  Bad Wolves - Die About It - Better Noise Music
  Bad Wolves refuse to follow. Instead, the platinum-certified Los Angeles band-John Boecklin [drums], Daniel"DL" Laskiewicz [lead vocals], Doc Coyle [lead guitar, backing vocals] and Kyle Konkiel [bass, backing vocals]-circumvent convention by stretching the boundaries of hard rock with earthquaking heaviness, enigmatic experimentation, and enthralling melodies. Bulldozing boundaries is nothing new for the boys though and their new album, DIE ABOUT IT, continues to carry on that narrative. With a story that emphasizes the sarcastic statement pointed towards those defending their own beliefs into absurdity, wrong or right, the Bad Wolves believe if you're gonna cry about it then you might as well DIE ABOUT IT.

  RSD Black Friday

  Friday November 11/24

  Doors open @9AM

  Reminder: It's Black Friday time, a smaller version of Record Store Day, with limited edition copies of exclusive titles only found at indie record stores like us! Here's a few things to know about the Black Friday Event at Down In The Valley

  -Doors open at 9am at our Golden Valley and Maple Grove locations

  -No advanced pre-orders or holds on any BF titles. BF titles are VERY LIMITED and sold on a first come, first serve basis so arrive early for your best shot at getting the titles you want.

  -BF titles vary between locations in quantity and stock levels. We will send out a specific BF email next week to VIP Members listing which stores have each title.

  -Only available in our stores 11/24 through the weekend. We will put any remainders online on Monday 11/27. (more details to come)

  -All titles are limited to 1 per customer of any single title.  (You can buy multiple BF titles of course)

  -VIP Members can choose 8 BF titles the first time through the line. Non-VIP members can choose 6. You can go through the line as many times as you'd like but we will still honor 1 of each title/customer.

  -The entire store is open for shopping, not just BF vinyl.  This is a great time to get a jump on your xmas shopping so bring your lists and we'll help you find everything you need.
