Can someone run down the various cd releases of this song title? I have seen at least 3 versions but the one I am most interested in has a photo of Jack and Meg dancing on the cover. What can you tell me about these - are they rare?

The cd you are after is the promo version (I dont have more info unfortunately)

Was thinking about the strange and unique history of this release the other day - an old BBC radio performance gets released as a B side to a single from the third album, then two years later it is included on the fourth album, then later on gets released as an A side in its own right. Surprising they didn't go a for a Toe Rag re-record for Elephant.

I've heard strong rumours about there being a maroon coloured vinyl of I just don't know what to do with myself? Apparently there are only 5 in the world and jack asked the 5 to be placed in hardest button to button sleeve. How true this is I don't know but it sounds like a thing jack white would do. Anybody know anything else?

That's an interesting first post.

One sold on eBay a few years ago for about $350.

Jack white does some strange but good stuff. I'm a big collector of white stripes records and I'm missing 4 (including that maroon vinyl) known vinyls that's the hand painted laffeyette blues, 10" ball and biscuit (limited to 10) 3" denial twist and that maroon do with myself limited to 5. If anybody has one on here let me know lol. How much would one go for on eBay today???

Thats like saying... "I have a lot of cups, but what I really want is the holy grail." You are looking for things that are attainable, but just barely. And that is providing you have both the connections and the cash. Why don't you post these in an ISO thread and see what comes of it?

If it helps, there's a 3" denial twist on ebay at the moment...

[crimpies]

I'm surprised you have a Meg Icky Thump picture disc but not a 3" Denial Twist, which are fairly are easy to get. I've had three DT3" over the years. Currently I have none, though that might change in the future.

[sandmaniac3]

I want a DT3", but it doesn't mean quite as much if Jack doesnt give one to you. I keep hoping that there is still a chance for this to happen.

[orangeshoeskid]

Was this the one that sold a few years back?
Looks like it went for £206 which was $317.23 back then.

So the maroon is real then!!!! I normally get my records from eBay and have to end up paying a fair old bit. My mrs is going to kill me one day.... It's funny because I brought a get behind me Satan lp (the bootleg one) from a record shop in London and it had the meg picture disc inside it!! Obviously a major mistake, I couldn't believe my luck! Another thing I've had chances to bid on a 3" denial twist but never been to urgent for it. (perhaps I'm waiting to meet jack lol) I bet there's loads more vinyl out there we don't know about.

Back to the maroon vinyl I would pay £260 for that any day of the week. Especially that there's only meant to be 5 of them!!

Can you buy/sell on popsike or is it strictly a database?
