White Stripes to release Peel Sessions on Record Store Day
Jack White's label will release complete Peel Sessions on double-vinyl for the first time

White Stripes are releasing a complete Peel Sessions double LP for Record Store Day on April 16.
The duo appeared on John Peel’s BBC radio show twice in 2001 following the release of their third album, White Blood Cells. The sessions feature songs from the record and its 2000 predecessor, De Stijl.
The promo also includes covers of Dolly Parton’s Jolene, Gene Vincent’s Baby Blue and the MC5’s Looking at You.
Record Store Day 2016 ambassadors Metallica revealed they’ll release a live benefit album, Liberte, Egalite, Fraternite, Metallica! to raise money for victims of the Paris Bataclan terrorist attacks in November.
