About Vault 15 -
The LP for this round of the Vault is the first-ever live show by a short-lived band called Jack White and the Bricks. Featuring Jack White on vocals and guitar, Brendan Benson (the Raconteurs) on guitar, Kevin Peyok (the Waxwings, the See-See) on bass and Ben Blackwell (the Dirtbombs) on drums, the band gigged for only a few short months in 1999. Focusing mainly on covers and White-penned tracks that had yet to have been appropriated by his main concern the White Stripes, this live show took place on White's 24thbirthday, July 9th, 1999. Sharing a bill with the Greenhornes, the stage itself was situated on lanes 11-14 (yes, the actual bowling lanes!) of the legendaryGarden Bowl in Detroit. While being the longest continually-run bowlingestablishment in North America, the Garden Bowl, along with the Gold Dollar, was also the de facto home of the then-bustling Detroit garage rock scene. The final song of the night, a blistering cover of Michigan's 60's garage legends ?and the Mysterians "Ain't It a Shame" is to "a girl who has to go get surgery soon"...a heartfelt dedication Jack sent out to band mate Meg White prior to a tonsillectomy operation. The show was recorded to four-track reel-to-reel in lane ten by an engineer who, although forgotten to time, left his imprint on the recording with a few track cut-outs and slight audio imperfections. These mild flaws notwithstanding, the vocal performance is extremely fierce and the show captures all four musicians at the height of the Detroit garage rock scene playing with unbridled energy.

Drawing from that same time period and the samecollaboration-happy times this Vault package features the pre-Raconteurs demo of"Steady, As She Goes" by Jack White and Brendan Benson. Recorded atBenson's East Grand Studios in his Detroit home in May of 2004, all thesignifying parts of the classic song are existent and there, but it would takethe incomparable touch of Jack Lawrence and Patrick Keeler to get the song toits classic state that fans know and love from the Raconteurs. On the flip sideis a full-band orchestration of Jack and Brendan nailing "The Same BoyYou've Always Known" in 1999 a full two years before it would appear onthe White Stripes "White Blood Cells" album, and in a much differentstate. This single serves as a wonderful document of the germinations of whatwould become the fruitful songwriting partnership between White and Benson inthe Raconteurs.
The bonus item this go-round is a behind-the-scenes tourtravelog film entitled "White Heat" and packaged in a splendiddigital versatile disc. Shot and edited by Brad Holland (Whirlwind Heat) thefilm follows the Heat and the White Stripes on their European tour during thewinter of 2002. Backstage tomfoolery, onstage pranks, the Louvre, brief insightinto the malaise that is life on the road...it all culminates in a previouslyunseen live performance by Whirlwind Heat of "The Big Three Killed My Baby"with Jack White as featured vocalist. This is definitely a side of the WhiteStripes you have never seen before along with explosive and unseen footage ofWhirlwind Heat in thier prime.
