Jack White To Speak At Yale University

On the history and legacy of Paramount Records...

Last year, Jack White's Third Man label assisted in a lavish box set dedicated to the history of Paramount Records.

An outlet which specialised in early jazz and blues during the 20s and 30s, the box set received widespread praise.

Now Jack White is set to speak on a panel at Yale University focussing on the Paramount story and its ultimate legacy.

Packed with heavyweights, the panel also includes renowned pop historian Griel Marcus, Revenant's Dean and Scott Blackwood, musician Adia Victoria, and Yale university professor Daphne Brooks.

Taking place on October 28th, you can check out the event poster above. Taken from the recent box set, check out 'That Da Da Strain' by Ethel Waters & Her Jazz Masters below.
