Taylor Swift chosen for first GLOBAL Record Store Day Ambassador Though many may not care about her or Vinyl, this is HUGE for the actual selling of music, and the focus back on buying music and owning music rather than RENTING it as an after thought. Swift will be the first GLOBAL ambassador, which in the past their have been choices but it differed country to country that did "record store day" in the past, Eddie Vedder and David Grohl were just a few of the honorees for the USA. Upon selection of SWIFT she announced their will be a "record store day" release from her, this is also HUGE because you may actually see a high charting record store day release, which to my knowledge has not happened yet at all. Since the releases tend to be limited to a number of copies some as low as 1,000 and some as high as 50,000 I think you can bet that Swift will be pressing a lot more records and dont doubt a release on CD and Tape something Record Store Day has done in the past. So like her or NOT this is huge for bringing a culture of buying back into the world.
