Jack White creates new vinyl format for Dead Weather single
By CMU Editorial | Published on Wednesday 15 September 2010
The Dead Weather have announced that their latest single ‘Blue Blood Blues’ will be available as a ‘triple decker record’, which is a new format designed by the band’s Jack White with the United Record Pressing Nashville company, who, it seems, like doing freaky things with vinyl. Basically the TDR is a 12″ record with a 7″ record in the middle if that makes sense. If not, watch the video here where Jack himself explains.
Only 300 copies of the special format will be made available, on Friday, 100 reserved for a Nashville record shop, the rest available via selected indie stores and by mail-order. Everyone else will have to make do with the normal seven-inch release, which is out today. Or maybe one of the tricolour releases, which I think is a normal seven-inch but with the vinyl bearing three different colours.
