Third Man Records Presents Document Reissue Series (Volume 1)
It’s easy to accuse Third Man Records of hawking gimmicks. But don’t get it confused — Jack White is a man of passion, and regardless of what you think about some of their more outlandish wares, it’s impossible to ignore the curatorial skill that goes into something like the Document Reissue Series. These are records that you would not have a chance in hell of ever owning otherwise (at least not a decent copy), and here the Third Man crew is taking care to release these amazing editions, just so you can spin some classic jams in the comfort of your home. Kicking off the series with Volumes 1 of The Complete Recorded Works in Chronological Order from Charley Patton, Blind Willie McTell, and the Mississippi Sheiks; featuring fantastic new artwork from Grammy winner Rob Jones. You can pick up the standard edition vinyl right now at thirdmanstore.com. We’ll try to stay on top of this one, there’s limited edition color vinyl coming soon…
I still love the gimmicks he hawks. That 3rpm record was great :p
