Favorite Musician-Direct Release Pick-ups Fulfilled in 2020?
Let’s face it, this has been a challenging year for almost everyone. Even ignoring situations like a worldwide pandemic, simply ordering Musician-Direct releases this year has been a bumpy ride. It feels like every third thread here ends up digressing to discussions about misleading merchandisers (lookin’ at you MusicToday), atrocious autographs (*ahem* Ms. Gaga), daunting delays (*cough* Halsey *cough*), sketchy signatures (Lil Wayne, Biebs, Ozzy, etc.), regional restrictions ("US/UK Only"), or lousy labels (UMG).
However, since it’s currently Thanksgiving eve here in the US, and 2020 is almost coming to a close - let’s discuss the more positive side of collecting musician-direct releases. Even with the many hiccups, there were a lot of great drops this year, from Jimmy Page to Ozzy to Liam Gallagher to Diana Ross.
So, what has been your favorite one or two musician-direct pick-ups fulfilled in 2020?
To keep this category-appropriate, let’s limit this to items that were label/publisher/artist-direct (ie. that were or could’ve been posted in this category originally), and that were actually fulfilled in 2020 (so including ’19 releases that were actually delivered this year is okay).

Oh and to add as well, Tim McGraw Here on Earth, my first ones came damaged, contacted them and took pictures. They contacted me back, replaced them and didn’t have to send the damaged ones back. Was really impressed with the customer service his team gave me.

I am thankful that I was able to get a signed CD by Jon Bon Jovi and another signed CD by Katy Perry. I am also thankful that I was able to pick up a signed Taylor Swift CD as well. So, 2020 has treated me a lot better than I deserve to be treated. I feel blessed that I was able to add these music icons to my collection.
