In other Jack White news, the rock star is gearing up to release his anticipated collaboration with Tenacious D. Earlier this month it was revealed that the project would drop during Record Store Day Black Friday.
Marketed as the Blue Series, the 7" features two tracks — "Don't Blow It" and "Kage" — both of which were produced by White and will be released on his label, Third Man Records.
The Blue Series record isn't the only cool record coming out on RSD Black Friday. Pearl Jam will be releasing their 1992 MTV Unplugged set on vinyl for the first time. The National are releasing their new live album. Arcade Fire are re-releasing their iconic single "Neighborhood #1 (Tunnels)" with a cover of The Alvino Rey Orchestra’s “My Buddy” as the B-side. Kings of Leon are giving their 2004 EP Day Old Belgian Blues its vinyl debut, and so much more.
RSD Black Friday is going down on November 29. Check out a full list of releases here.
