BLACKWELL'S RECORD OF THE WEEK

BLACKWELL'S RECORD OF THE WEEK

The Raconteurs

“(embargoed from sharing the title)” one-sided single

scums stats: WOULDN’T YOU LIKE TO KNOW?

Hard to believe I’m even doing one this week, but the collectibility has me all keyed up. Multiple covers? Multiple paper colors? Only given out to Ultra Ticket purchasers? SIGN ME UP.

Everybody is gonna want one, so let me just pre-emptively tell you…I don’t have any to spare!

You wanna place bets on the high price these reach on Discogs? Will anyone be able to collect ALL four?

Good luck to those trying, as you will need it.

You know, this song originally wasn’t going to be on the album. But Swank and I had to explain to the band how DAMN GOOD it was. It makes multiple statements that need to be made. The performance is tight…who even knew Brendan could DO that?

People who won't play the game the hard way, let’s do easy. Let’s give away a test pressing for commenters. You’ve got a week to get it in there. Tell me your favorite Third Man moment of the past ten years. I may use discretion or I may just pick a comment at random, so everyone has a chance.

Yondr pouch. Best thing ever!

bollweevil-

as a younger vault member (15) and witnessing the increasing deficit of integrity in music, my favorite third man “moment” is just all the wonderful things you guys do to put the integrity and emotion back into art and music. Thank you so much!

My favorite moment was the opening of the Detroit store, it made the circle complete. Being a Detroit native, it was a HUGE deal. This is where it all started, so much history. Then the fact Third Man started manufacturing records here blew everyone away! The best things are made in Detroit! Not trying to take anything away from the Nashville store, it obviously rocks too.

All about the World’s Fastest Record, me. Being four feet away from the front of the stage, having my ears seared by JW’s triple tube amps …yo, that was awesome. But the moment during Hello operator when the crowd out-shouted the lyrics as one – priceless!
