When the White Stripes announced their break-up five months ago, they also announced that they were going to continue releasing previously unavailable songs, demos, live sessions, etc. through Jack White's Nashville-based Third Man Records. A mere two months later, the White Stripes announced plans to release a double-vinyl album of their final show ever in July 2007 (Live in Mississippi), a live DVD recorded in Moorhead, Minnesota in June 2000, shortly after the band released its second album De Stijl (Under Moorhead Lights All Fargo Night), and a 7" single featuring a cover of 60s garage band Love's "Signed D.C." and a cover of the King of Soul Otis Redding's "I've Been Loving You Too Long." The White Stripes recorded both "Signed D.C." and "I've Been Loving You Too Long" in 1997, before the candy-coloured duo even had a single its their own. As of a few days ago, sites such as Antiquiet.com have been streaming both "Signed D.C." and "I've Been Loving You Too Long" in full. Click here to check out both tracks. They're the sounds of the White Stripes at their most infantile - literally.
