Jack White Plans Acoustic Double Album With New White Stripes Song
Jack White has announced the release of Jack White Acoustic Recordings 1998-2016 on Third Man Records/Columbia. The 26-track double-LP and double-CD will be released physically and digitally worldwide on Sept. 9.
The set features alternate versions, mixes and previously unreleased recordings from The White Stripes, The Raconteurs and solo material all completely remastered.
The 26 tracks were remastered earlier this year by Andrew Mendelson at Georgetown Masters in Nashville. All songs were written and produced exclusively by White, except “Never Far Away” (produced by T Bone Burnett), “Honey, We Can’t Afford To Look This Cheap” (produced by Beck), “Top Yourself (Bluegrass Version)” and “Carolina Drama” (written & produced by White & Brendan Benson), and “Machine Gun Silhouette” (written by White & Rob Jones).
The song “City Lights” was written for The White Stripes’ Get Behind Me Satan but then forgotten until White revisited the 2005 album for Third Man’s Record Store Day 2015 vinyl reissue and finished the recording in 2016. The track is the first new, worldwide commercially released White Stripes song since 2008.
