Third Man Records To Reissue Flat Duo Jets’ ‘Go Go Harlem Baby’

Third Man Records have announced they will reissue Flat Duo Jets’ 1991 album ‘Go Go Harlem Baby.’

‘Some of you may remember [label boss] Jack White dropping the needle on the Jets’ version of ‘Froggy Went a Courtin’’ in the ‘It Might Get Loud’ doc as an indicator of his early influences,’ explain Third Man. ‘Maybe you remember the White Stripes covering ‘You Belong to Me’ or ‘Apple Blossom Time’ in their live performances.

‘Those songs, as well as all the rest featured on ‘Go Go Harlem Baby’ are genuinely important in the pantheon of American music. Out-of-print on vinyl since it’s original issue twenty years ago, Third Man Records worked solidly for a year-and-a-half to make this record available again. Please enjoy.’

The official release date is 18th October, with the label shop itself selling 75 limited edition black and white Split Color LPs. There’s also an online pre-sale here.
