Jack White “That Black Bat Licorice/Blue Light, Red Light (Someone’s There)” 45 rpm single, Third Man Records, 2014/2015. Another pick from Third Man Records Rolling Record Store. We nabbed two copies, one for the Vault and the other for our 10 year old son, who really liked “That Black Bat Licorice” off of Jack White’s 2014 LP “Lazaretto.” Side B features “Blue Light, Red Light (Someone’s There)” by Harry Connick Jr., all jazzy filtered through Jack White’s garage blues lenses.

Ever the creative mind, White released a collaborative video for “That Black Bat Licorice,” which features three visual accompaniments for the single. The first is black and blue bat-spitting, tongue cutting animation from James Blagden. The second, if the viewer holds down the computer’s B key, is a Brand Holland directed slo-mo head-banging, air punching version. If you hold down 3, you get army-jacket clad, George Washington-masked hallucinations and Jack White on air violin.

Mudhoney “Live at Third Man Records”

Mudhoney “Live at Third Man Records” recorded live to acetate on Sept. 26 2013. Third Man Records’ Rolling Record Store rolled through Milwaukee earlier this week. We stood in line for about an hour (early April in the midwest is FREEZING) but so worth it to score a few releases like this one (and the folks working the truck were absolutely sweet and lovely, warming our hearts if not our toes).

Five of the tracks from the album are from Mudhoney’s “Vanishing Point” LP, plus a couple of oldies-but-goodies like “Here Comes Sickness” and “When Tomorrow Hits” from their 1989 debut studio album. Also included is a Cheater Slicks cover song, “Ghost.” It’s a raucous live performance, fuzzy and fast like 25+ years ago was just yesterday.

Love that Third Man includes run-off groove etchings! Side 1: Dr. Groove says “crazy sweet.” Side 2: Keeping the Shannons paid.

Who are the Shannons??

Third Man Records Rolling Record store rolled through my neighborhood this evening, we stood in the freezing cold for an hour but so worth it for live LPs of The Kills and Mudhoney plus a couple of Jack White singles.
