The White Stripes may be gone, but thanks to Jack White's Third Man Records, we can soon buy plenty of White Stripes music that we haven't heard before.
As the Third Man website points out, the latest package available to subscribers to Third Man's Vault subscription series consists of a double-vinyl recording of the White Stripes' last-ever live show in 2007, a DVD of a live show from 2000, and a 7" single of some of their earliest recordings.
Live in Mississippi, the 180-gram vinyl double album, is a complete recording of the band's final show, which took place in Southaven, Mississippi on July 31, 2007. The sprawling tracklist includes covers of old blues greats Robert Johnson, Leadbelly, and Son House, as well as tracks from throughout their career. Speaking as someone who caught one show from that final tour, the band was in an absolutely magnificent zone onstage at the time.
The DVD is Under Moorhead Lights All Fargo Night, a recording of a show at Ralph's Corner Bar in Moorhead, Minnesota in June 2000, shortly after the release of their album De Stijl. The show includes a cover of Iggy Pop's "I'm Bored". We've got the tracklists for Live in Mississippi and Under Moorhead Lights All Fargo Night below.
The 7" single features two songs that the band recorded in 1997, before the release of their first single: covers of Love's "Signed D.C." and Otis Redding's "I've Been Loving You Too Long".
