| 12" vinyl LP front cover of Jack White's Lazaretto album |
Below are two great sounding tracks by Jack White from his album titled Lazaretto. Followed by the story on the how Lazaretto was uniquely being put out on vinyl as a specially tweaked ULTRA LP. It's like some sort of sonic heaven.
Jack White - "High Ball Stepper"
Jack White - "Lazaretto" (Audio)
Lazaretto was released as what Jack White and his label, Third Man Records, called the ULTRA LP. It's 180 gram vinyl with 2 vinyl-only hidden tracks hidden beneath the center labels. One hidden track plays at 78 RPM, and the other plays at 45 RPM, making this a 3-speed record. Side A plays from the outside in. The record features dual-groove technology: plays an electric or acoustic intro for "Just One Drink" depending on where needle is dropped. The grooves meet for the body of the song. There is a matte finish on Side B, giving the appearance of an un-played 78 RPM record. Both sides end with locked grooves. The vinyl pressed in seldom-used flat-edged format. The dead wax area on Side A contains a hand-etched hologram by Tristan Duke of Infinity Light Science, the first of its kind on a vinyl record. Zero compression was used during mastering of this LP. There is a different running order from the CD/digital version. The LP utilizes some mixes different from those used on CD and digital version. Just below is a video on the ULTRA LP.
