The Vault has long served as a prime outlet for Third Man Records to share otherwise overlooked live performances. To celebrate the 60th Vault package, we’re proud to highlight live recordings spanning years, continents, genres and thensome. Drawn from our three Third Man venues - the Blue Room in Nashville, the Blue Stage in Detroit, and the Blue Basement in London - these records showcase the energy, verve and spirit that is imbued in everything Third Man does.
The package features shows from Jack White, Zam Rock legends W.I.T.C.H, Dinosaur Jr., as well as a special 7” from Mudhoney. All discs will be pressed on a unique, blue and white vinyl mix we’ve named skycloud, which recalls that specific hue of paint that graces the walls of all three of these venues. LPs are all 180-gram beasts housed in psychedelic, marbleized inner sleeves. Those sleeves live sumptuously in their own custom jackets inspired by their original show posters, with Sophy Hollington’s Dinosaur Jr. imagery being of particular delight. As an extra treat, we’ve included a fresh new Third Man bumper sticker exhorting all to “Support Live Music.” The whole shebang is all collected in a sharp slipcase to keep it nice and cozy.
Bonus time: We dug around the warehouse and found 10 copies of the original “World’s Fastest Record” 7-inch, stashed long ago and promptly forgotten about. Ten lucky Vault packages will have a copy of this coveted single randomly inserted inside and hey, that package has a shot at landing on your doorstep. So what are you waiting for?

Well, not for me. In France VP are increase a lot (100$ easy plus customs fees). It must be something outstanding, something I will listen and love. Ok there is a Jack White's live but it is not enough. See you in July.
