I just received my Vault 16 in the mail. My mailman was walking up when me and the wife were walking out the door for the airport. Heading to Cozumel!

 

Anyway, I opened it up quick and I saw Nine Miles From The White City and in another sleeve the Elephant Booklet. Didn't have time to open up the NMFTWC...is my The White Stripes Demos 7" inside NMFTWC????

 

Or did Third Man forget to put mine in?

 

Thanks...not going to be home for 10 days and needed to know if I should be contacting them while I'm on vacation to have one waiting for me when I get home. Hoping it's sealed up with the 12", but for some reason I have a feeling they left it out.

 

How did everyone else receive their three items?

FYI...it looks like Third Man will be label pressing Jay-Z's new Magna Carta...Holy Grail LP.  Vinyl will feature the track Open Letter excuslively it appears.  Any guesses as to the crazy packaging types available for this thing?  Get your wallet ready.

each copy will come with a 1inchx1inch square cut from Jesus Christ's burial shroud

 

I just figured we'd get some sort of description like this:

 

"Third Man Records is pleased to announce the limited "Magna Carta Version" vinyl pressing of Jay-Z's Magna Carta....Holy Grail.   This 3LP gatefold set is printed on actual paper from 1215...the year the Magna Carta was released.  In addition, specs of the paper have been carefully molded into the vinyl, so you can play a piece of history.  In addition, all labels and linear notes will be in Latin.  The first 500 orders will get a special Third Man Grail Gold flecked cup".   Price:  $666.66     Note:  Third Man will not be responsible for any tearing/ripping as paper from 1215 is very fragile and shouldn't ever be touched/opened....perfect for the Ebay flipper!"

I haven't heard MCHG but all the reviews are just destroying it.

It's a victory lap for a victory lap of the last several years of his career. He's established as one of the greatest rappers of all time and he isn't rapping about the struggle like he did with the Black Album and others. He's really the first successful rapper to be a businessman, have a healthy marriage and a child he loves. It's a different album from anything else out there because he's a different person from anyone else making music.

tl;dr- he's not a poor kid from the Bronx and MCHG shows it

Pokey LaFarge - Central Time 7"

Yes, the very song Pokey played on his LATE SHOW WITH DAVID LETTERMAN last month. Pack up your portable record player and sit by the Ohio River blasting this gem of a tribute to living in the good ol' Midwest, featuring super snazzy artwork, and non-album B Side "St. Louis Crawl." Sitting at the crossroads of early jazz, country blues and western swing, these two homegrown tracks are enough to make any damn yankee, mountain man or California dream reconsider their stomping grounds.

The White Stripes - Elephant Reissue LP

This is the official release date for the long-awaited reissue of The White Stripes fourth album and major label debut. TMR is pleased to announce that this 180 gram black vinyl version has been mastered direct from the original, analog source for the 2002 recordings at Toe Rag Studious. The discs come housed in a double-gatefold sleeve, with printed inner sleeves and an MP3 download card. This album dedicated to the death of the sweetheart is still as poignant today as when it was originally released 10 years ago. We draw a firm line here... you can't consider yourself a White Stripes fan without this record on your shelf. 

 

Sept. 3rd:

 

Volume 3: Charlie Patton, Blind Willie McTell and Mississippi Sheiks Complete Recorded Works Document Records Reissue LPs

The much anticipated 3rd volume from our re-issue series of the complete works of Charlie Patton, Blind Willie McTell and The Mississippi Sheiks hit the shelves. Casual fans of American Music and history and blues completists alike, this is your time to rejoice. 

 

Sept. 10th:

 

Melvins - Live At Third Man LP

The mighty Melvins stomped through Third Man last May and threw down an epic live set on the label's Direct To Disc live to acetate system. The results of that evening of legends doing a legendary set are coming your way on Sept. 10th on glorious vinyl. Tell the people. 

 

All that and a whole lot more coming your way over the coming weeks and months. As always, stay tuned for all the excitement coming your way from the most recklessly fun label in the business.
