Vault package #8

[orangeshoeskid]

very excited about this. Too bad it wasn't the show before it, I was there and it was amazing. But then again it would have the same ring to it if they were describing it as "the second to last live show." Doesn't sound as appealing.

Call me a piece of shit but I'm not familiar with either of the songs on the 7"...what I mean by that is, by not really going into the abyss of the WS catalog, it's nice to get new WS music after the break up, even if it's only new to me...This package should arrive around by birthday too...nice.

Yeah. I don't have a lot of WS deep tracks myself. So I am really excited by this too. I just hope that they have enough stuff like this so that there will be a reasonable number of future WS Vault releases.

You want the White Stripes. We get it. So for our upcoming Vault package we’re excited to present our fans with peeks at the White Stripes from three decidedly different eras of the band.

First off, we’re pleased to offer Live in Mississippi a recording of the White Stripes’ final live concert from July 31st, 2007 in Southaven, Mississippi. Presented in crystalline audio quality and spread across 2 LP’s pressed on 180-gram vinyl, this recording is (arguably) the band at the top of their game. With the local geography looming large on their minds, the set list is decidedly heavy on the blues and features covers of songs by Robert Johnson, Son House and Leadbelly. The rest of the set includes songs from all six of the White Stripes’ studio albums and the show is offered in its entirety.

Our 7” this quarter features some of the earliest recordings the White Stripes ever made. The a-side is a haunting, stark version of “Signed DC” originally done by the band Love on their self-titled debut record from 1966. The flipside is a breathtaking rendition of the Otis Redding classic “I’ve Been Loving You Too Long.” Recorded in Detroit in September of 1997 a mere two months after the Stripes’ live debut, this single provides a heretofore unheard era of the band. Although their debut single “Let’s Shake Hands” wouldn’t be released for another eight months, this recording shows how fully-formed the general idea, aesthetic and approach of the White Stripes was from the very start.

The final component of this collection is a DVD entitled Under Moorhead Lights All Fargo Night. Recorded at Ralph’s Corner Bar in Moorhead, Minnesota on June 13th, 2000, this previously unseen footage captures the band immediately following the release of their sophomore album De Stijl on what was their first extended bout of touring across the United States. Performing for only a handful of people, the show is heavy on the band’s earlier material with a spirited cover of Iggy Pop’s “I’m Bored” being of particular excitement and note.

This is fricken ORGASMIC! What an EXCELLENT package! Now I definitely know why I'm a member of the Vault. This is hands down my favorite by far! Now I'm going to be the guy complaining about getting my package in the mail.

Man, are there stories to be told about this. I know a couple guys and a gal who attended the Moorhead show. It would be kick ass to see them in the video. I might have to pick up a couple additional Vault packages and send them over as a gift.

I'm kicking myself for not attending this show now. Even though I ended up seeing them a couple weeks later outside of Chicago. Man, so many stories to be told about the early days of the Stripes.

Does anyone else think it is kind of weird that they did not play seven nation army at there last show?
