I’m not usually excited enough about Record Store Day releases to get up ridiculously early for them. But I might maker an exception for The Action 7-inch Singles Box Set.

It’s the standout ‘mod’ release for Record Store Day, which takes place on Saturday 19th April 2014. If you’ve never participated in it before, let’s just say that there’s a glut of limited edition vinyl available, the best of which will be snapped up – so get up early and queue.

That’s almost certain to be the case for The Action 7-inch Singles Box Set. According to the official write-up, it contains:

7x 7-inch singles in replica and new sleeve constructions
A 24-page booklet with unseen and rare photos and memorabilia
An A2 double-sided poster
Sticker
Download card  – so you can get the vinyl in digital form for free too

We haven’t seen the sleeve yet (we’ll update as soon as we see it, the image above certainly isn’ it), but regardless of that, this is a must-have item.Not sure of the actual singles in the box either – presumably the six official releases in the UK, along with one extra. That’s just a guess though, but probably an educated one.

Set the alarm if you want it and if you want to know more about Record Store Day (and your nearest participating store), the website is here.

Love Modculture? If you enjoy what you read or have benefitted from it and want to help with the ever-increasing costs of the site and newsletter, you can always buy me a coffee at Ko-Fi. Every penny is helpful and appreciated.

  1. I live in the US but would love to have this- anyone in the UK want to trade for some US RSD releases?

  2. This Dutchman wants it too!
