Jack White (Lazaretto) June 10th

[zeb]

I think that the Ultra LP is a fantastic idea. I mean, why not try to smoosh all of these eccentric things into one release?

[southp]

I think it's pretty cool, I don't particularly care for his music much myself but if I was a fan I would be pissed if the ultra LP would be the only version, but I don't believe that to be the case.

Yeah it's kinda funny they call it the "ultra LP" but right there on the website it says "THIS ULTRA LP IS THE STANDARD VERSION OF THE VINYL FORMAT OF LAZARETTO"... anyways, it's only $20.

I think it's pretty great that there is (allegedly) only one version of the album -- Ultra, Box-set, or otherwise.

heard Lazaretto on the radio this morning for the first time. pretty solid... i REEEALLY liked that breakdown in the middle

[Dev]

lazaretto didn't really grip me

Jack put up a studio cut of a Power of My Love (Elvis) for free on the vault. It fucking shreds.

that just means it's standard black vinyl and not the Vault blue/white version, it still has all of the Ultra LP features.

White also uses the interview to comment on the general lack of moral support he got from Meg, saying, “She’s one of those people who won’t high-five me when I get the touchdown.”

She viewed me that way of “Oh, big deal, you did it, so what?” Almost every single moment of the White Stripes was like that. We’d be working in the studio and something amazing would happen: I’m like, “Damn, we just broke into a new world right there!” And Meg’s sitting in silence.

Haha, hilarious.

[BurtReynolds]

She's a firecracker, that one.

[VinylGuy]

haha i love Meg.

Kill Jack White, take his place, then announce you quit music. Thanks.

Who plays drums on this record?

[Fuzzcharger]

I streamed this today. It's okay. It feels a little bit Jack White by numbers. Nothing really jumped out but nothing really compelled me to skip a track. Not sure I'll listen to it a lot but I wasn't horrified.

[BigRedLedbetter]

Very excited for this album to drop tomorrow!
