[Watch] Wanda Jackson & Jack White - "Thunder on the Mountain" (Bob Dylan Cover)

Are you ready to have a few minutes out of your day to truly sit back, relax and sit open mouthed as Jack White graces your computer screen with his presence and a guitar thrown together with a boutique amp? You are!? Awesome. Take a look at him, Wanda Jackson and the Third Man Records House Band as they tackle the legend that is Bob Dylan's "Thunder on the Mountain".

Why that song you may ask...well in an interview with Spinner Jackson told them that "Jack wanted me to do a Bob song...They're longstanding friends and Bob suggested 'Thunder on the Mountain.'" Naturally, you kno whow it is just hanging out with Bob on a Saturday afternoon.  Wanda goes on to say that when recording the video for this one afternoon in the very same pressing plant her vinyl was pressed Jack was in "rare form....Every time that we taped it, he had the energy, jumping around like that and playing the guitar." 

What are you waiting for, hit play already and soak in Jack White, Wanda and the House band rocking the plant like there's no tomorrow! The Party Ain't Over will be out Jan. 25 via Nonesuch Records and White's Third Man Records.

[Watch] Fistful of Mercy Cover Bob Dylan, PJ Harvey and The Velvet Underground

Last year I was pretty excited when heard new of a new band called Fistful of Mercy consisting of Ben Harper, Joseph Arthur and Dhani Harrison. Their debut As I Call You Down was made available in October via Hot Records, and you can pick yourself up a copy over here.

The band were recieved with warm open arms and their live shows were also impressive out of a recording studio environment. You can see them in a live situation here, when they performed on Conan O'Brien's late night show where they perform lead single "Father's Son" with the help of RATM's Tom Morello.

Now, Their live show's consist of their debut but they have also played numerous covers on stage. As our friends over at TwentyFourBit have pointed out they do pretty good renditions of Bob Dylan’s 1975 Blood on the Tracks “Buckets of Rain”  as well as PJ Harvey’s To Bring You My Love title track, and The Velvet Underground's “Pale Blue Eyes”. Check out the Dylan cover up top and the other two after the jump.

[Download] Colin Munroe - "One (Sky Ferreira Revox)"

Colin Munroe is working on a new project called The Revox Suite. For those of you familiar with Munroe's work already, it's the same idea as the Bob Dylan - "Who Killed Davey Moore" revox he did on his Unsung Hero Mixtape.

The first sampling of his new project is a revox of Sky Ferreira's "One". According to Munroe, he helped Ferreira with her upcoming LP but hasn't unveiled any other details other than that.

Really like what he did with the song. Looking forward to more from this project.
