KLBJ’s On-air talent has filtered through the enormous list of music coming out on Black Friday, so you can get your friends and family the gift that really matters … GREAT rockin’ music!
Check out L.A’s recommendations below, and stay tuned for more blogs from our on-air team!
“Traditionally, Black Friday has been about super-cheap prices on mass-produced goods and primarily takes place in malls and big box stores. But we really like the idea of a shopping season, especially when that shopping is all about, at its heart, a way to show the people you like that you like them. (And a way for them to show you, too. Gift-GETTING is also awesome!) So we created RSD Black Friday.” The Record Store Day’s website reads.
