Loath though I am to regurgitate a news story from Pitchfork, I just can't help myself when Jack White and vinyl are involved. I wouldn't go so far as to say Jack White and vinyl are the two loves of my life because we all know that Okkervil River and my ipod are the two loves of my life but White and vinyl? They rank up there.
Let's face it: White is the coolest fella around. From his devil may care attitude to his fantastical ability to multitask to his Macguyver-ing a guitar out of a coke bottle in It Might Get Loud, White didn't go to the School For Cool. He founded it.
So it's only natural that I'm pretty pumped about the Racounteur introducing a triple decker vinyl. Head over to The Dead Weather's site to watch the tutorial but first, stick around here and let me put it in layman's terms for you...
An oreo is delicious, right? It's a cookie, a delicious sugar substance, then another cookie! That's great! Who thought of that? They're a genius! Now... Imagine a record... INSIDE ANOTHER RECORD. Is your mind blown? Well, get thee to the record store now! White and company are only pressing 300 of these babies!
