Announced yesterday on RecordstoredayUK
and Davidbowie.com
"Drive-In Saturday is next RSD Bowie exclusive
“It's a crash course for the ravers”
You're probably aware that the next Record Store Day falls on Saturday 20th April 2013.
The fourth in a series of David Bowie picture disc releases is scheduled as an exclusive RSD release at participating stores on that day.
As you’ve no doubt started seeing a pattern to these releases, it will be no surprise to learn that Drive-In Saturday is that next disc.
Originally released on April 6th 1973 as the second track from the soon-to-be-released Aladdin Sane album, the single was a #3 hit for Bowie in the UK.
This new release will feature the studio version on the A-side and the performance from January 1973 on Russell Harty Plus Pop as the AA-side.

Check both the US and UK sites for your nearest record emporium."
And so the confusion that is the release of Bowie product via RecordstoredayUK continues.
Whereas the release of Starman was the fiasco of only being sold via actual record stores (whilst most copies ended up being sold on eBay by unscrupulous types!) and the release of John I'm Only Dancing & The Jean Genie being available via preorder from the above mentioned site it looks like we're back to the fiasco of standing outside record stores for hours only to have to go home and spend silly prices on eBay. Hmmmph!
