With the news that Hammersmith Odeon London '75 will be released as a 4-LP set on Record Store Day, I decided to go through my collection and list all Springsteen and Springsteen-related RDS exclusive releases. I'm compiling this list for my own records, but it may also serve as a guide to you and feel free to comment if you have any additions or corrections.

This year's Southside Johnny's release, Live From E Street, seems to be a reissue of his 2016 EP Live From 10th Avenue. The tracks are the same, but the artwork, the title, and tracks order are different.

I couldn't find Live From 10th Avenue anywhere online. Anybody knows where I can find a copy?

It seems that Jason Isbell will also release a cover of "Atlantic City"

Some copies are already on eBay (for pre-order)

Graziano Romani will also release on RDS (in Italy) an album and a single of Springsteen covers.

Regarding Hammersmith, it seems that it is limited to around 12000 copies worldwide. The first 3000+ copies are US issue and the remaining ones are the EU issues. There is some overlapping.

I've seen US copies numbered as low as 000016 and as high as 003322.
I've seen EU copies numbered as low as 003056 and as high as 011589.

In Australia they used the EU issue. The one I saw has number 007260.

Anyone knows which issue was used in Japan?

Any differences in the Australian issue like address imprint, lables etc. or is it completely identical to the EU release?
The US version I've seen has no Sony logo and numbering in silver with a prefix "No.".

Completely identical to the EU issue. These are the photos I was sent.

schrefel wrote:The US version I've seen has no Sony logo and numbering in silver with a prefix "No.".

That is correct. There is also a small difference in the sticker: "S1" added at the end of the catalog number. These are three differences I've noticed. Haven't seen labels yet.

It seems both EU issues (see above) and US issues (see below) were also sold in Australia.

In Japan they are selling the EU issue, based on the one copy I saw from an eBay seller in Japan. It's number 006990.

New USA highest number: 3.422

Now we have almost 400 numbers overlapping:

I've seen US copies numbered as low as 000016 and as high as 003422.
I've seen EU copies numbered as low as 003056 and as high as 011589.

Just seen US issue #003540. This is the maximum we've seen so far.

I've seen 2 more at Yahoo Auctions, all of them EU

EU 3.009

Good find.

I've seen US copies numbered as low as 000016 and as high as 003648.
I've seen EU copies numbered as low as 003009 and as high as 011589.

Update:
I've seen US copies numbered as low as 000001 and as high as 003648.

I now have the US issue of Hammersmith Odeon, London '75 # 000001

I added the upcoming release of the Greatest Hits red-vinyl reissue. I assume that both US and EU versions will be issued, both will probably be made in the EU. According to the RSD website, it will be limited to 5000 copies. I assume that number is for copies sold in the US, and not including those sold elsewhere. And as was the case with Hammersmith, I doubt that this will be a RDS exclusive.

I also added two RDS release from previous years that contain Springsteen covers. If you know of any from this year, please let me know.

From the pictures I saw on eBay, the difference between the US issue and the EU issue is in the size of the "We Are Vinyl" sticker. I have not seen good quality photos of the back sleeve, so I'm not sure if there are any other differences. I assume that both the US issue and the EU issue were pressed in France. Based on only one example I saw, the US issue seems to be the one sold in Australia.

On the back cover, the difference is the numbering of the copy. Different position, different front... just like last year with Hammersmith.
I've seen US copies numbered as low as 61 and as high as 5958.
I've seen EU copies numbered as low as 6218 and as high as 14020.

Were there any Springsteen-related this year? There must be some covers released.
