Update: You're all almost as excited about the Triple Decker 12" as we are. Thanks for the emails and inquiries. To reiterate: on this title we're not doing holds, sending out special emails to people when it arrives, or doing mail order.* Truly there will be no exceptions to this as that wouldn't be fair. Trust me, if I was cool with doing holds on this title, you'd already be too late as a heap of regulars already made that request. However, we will be announcing the title's arrival here on the site and on our Facebook.

I just sent out the fifth volume of the Vortex Specialty Mailing List which featured news about:

Syl Johnson
The Black Angels
Grinderman
Nina Nastasia
Art Blakey
Thelonious Monk and Sonny Rollins
Sun Ra
David Vandervelde
Avey Tare
Smashing Pumpkins
Animal Collective
DJ Shadow
Audio Fidelity

and

Our next Vortex Exclusive... the Dead Weather "Blue Blood Blues" Triple Decker 12". We'll be the only store in the city with these. Jack White's label Third Man Records pressed just 300 copies. Most were sold directly through their mail order or Nashville retail shop (us$30 a pop) and a few select brick-and-mortar shops world-wide are offering the few remaining copies. In Toronto, that's us! I'll post to the site when they arrive.

No holds on this one and a limit of one per customer!

* We don't do mail order on any titles, so this isn't really news.
