The Mississippi Sheiks were a blues string band that recorded extensively during the early 1930s. Comprised of various members including Bo Chatman, Lonnie Chatmon, Sam Chatman, and Walter Vinson, their lineup often changed over time. Their music was characterized by interchangeable instrumentation and a unique sound. They recorded for several record labels such as OKeh, Paramount, Columbia/OKeh, and Bluebird. The Mississippi Sheiks' contributions to the blues genre are significant and their recordings continue to be celebrated today.

Third Man Records was founded in 2001 by Jack White, Ben Swank, and Ben Blackwell in Detroit. In 2010, they established a physical location in Nashville, TN. The TMR building serves as the company headquarters and houses the label's offices, a vinyl record store, photo studio, dark room, and performance stage.
The label is best known for producing bands such as The White Stripes, The Raconteurs, and The Dead Weather. They have become synonymous with high-quality vinyl records and have created a strong presence in the music industry.
With their commitment to preserving the art of vinyl records and their dedication to supporting emerging artists, Third Man Records continues to be a driving force in the music e-commerce world.

The fourth set of Document Records reissues and the final installments of The Complete Recorded Works in Chronological Order from Charley Patton, Blind Willie McTell and the Mississippi Sheiks. It is worth noting that the Mississippi Sheiks required a Volume 5 to include the full catalog in this series, so we are simultaneously release Volume 4 and 5 of their collection in this batch. This final installment features gorgeous new covers from Rob Jones, extensive liner notes, and, of course, amazing music morsels of blues history on vinyl for the first time in decades. Here's hoping these reissues are just the beginning of your exploration into the building blocks of American music and early blues.
