VAN LEAR ROSE, THE GRAMMY WINNING STUDIO ALBUM BY LORETTA LYNN AND PRODUCED BY JACK WHITE.
NOT AVAILABLE DIGITALLY OR PHYSICALLY IN ALMOST A DECADE.
THE ALBUM DEBUTED AT NO. 2 ON THE US BILLBOARD TOP COUNTRY ALBUMS CHART, AND NO. 24 ON THE US BILLBOARD 200.

In January of 2004 recording commenced on Loretta Lynn's 42nd solo album. This particular album was poised from the start to be a unique and standalone installment in a long well established, unbelievable, legendary, career already spanning five decades due to the role of producer going to none other than a 28 year old Jack White. White, a long time admirer of Lynn's work, leapt at the chance to conduct this musical experimentation of blended styles and see what fruits the two very separate but cosmically intertwined approaches to writing, playing, and producing music could yield.

The album would go on to win the 2005 Grammy Award for "Country Album Of The Year", with the albums second single "Portland, Oregon" winning "Best Country Collaboration With Vocals". A litany of other accolades were to follow and the record firmly cemented itself in the annals of Country music history as the most successful crossover album of Lorettas historic career. Twenty-two years later, we're still celebrating it.

Third Man Records is proud to announce Van Lear Rose reissued and expanded. Now including the additional track "Just to Have You Back", previously only available to members of The Vault vinyl subscription series, rounding out the already impeccable tracklist. This LP is available in both a standard black and limited edition orange (while supplies last) colorways as well as CD.
