4 Years Ago DEF LEPPARD's RRHOF Live EP Released For RECORD STORE DAY UK/RSD Drop October
Def Leppard's Rock And Roll Hall of Fame vinyl EP for Record Store Day 2020 was released on this day in 2020 in the UK.
The official list of releases for Record Store Day 2020 were announced on 5th March.
The organisers then changed the event to be spilt over three different days in three different months.
The 'RSD Drops' took place on 29th August, 26th September and 24th October.
Today's RSD Drop October sees both the Def Leppard and Down 'n' Outz releases available in the UK and various other countries.
The event was originally postponed in March to 20th June before changing again.
All of the Def Leppard and related releases can be seen below.
The 'Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame' live 12" vinyl can be purchased now in the UK.
The fifth time the band have been involved in Record Store Day.
This follows the 2019 RSD release of 'The Story So Far Vol. 2' double LP.
The release was first mentioned by Joe during a December 2019 interview when he said the band were releasing 'something special' for Record Store Day.
Joe is also involved in two other releases from the Down 'n' Outz and the Doctors Of Madness album he guested on which was first released in 2019.

Record Store Day - June 2020 News Update
As announced earlier this year, Record Store Day as it has come to be known will not be celebrated in 2020. Instead there are three RSD 'Drop Dates' in which you can get hold of the RSD titles from local record shops: August 29, September 26 or October 24. You can find the 2020 releases and their new Drop Dates on the RSD website or you can download a copy of that list here! Now would be a great time to find those releases you really want and let your local record shop know what you would like them to order in for you.
While we’d all love nothing more than a party at our local record stores, large groups just aren’t the right thing right now. Those independently-owned community businesses remain essential, in our eyes, and may need the revenue brought in by the sales of the sought-after titles on the Record Store Day 2020 List this year more than any other.More details on what social distancing measures will be put in place by each store will be issued closer to the time and releases will be made available online from participating record shop websites at 6pm.
