Yes, Conan O'Brien is Releasing a Spoken Word Album
And you thought that the rockabilly album Conan O'Brien claimed to be making with Jack White in June was just a joke. Not only is it completely real, but it will be released next week alongside an improvised spoken word album where the former Tonight Show host tells you his own version of a scary classic.
Pictured here is the cover for Conan's And They Call Me Mad? album. According to HitFix:
[The album] will be pressed on 7" vinyl and digital; the A-side features O'Brien's improvised spoken word take on the legend of Frankenstein while the B-side is an interview with White Stripes/Raconteurs/Dead Weather/Third Man man Jack White. "Conan O'Brien Live at Third Man" is a 12" LP collection of rock and rockabilly tunes performed by O'Brien and his band, and includes a duet with White on a cover of Eddie Cochran "20 Flight Rock."
Both albums were recorded at Third Man Records and will be available for iTunes purchase early next week.

The words spoken on the album will be "LENO SUCKS!"
The album's spookiest part will be when Leno pops out and starts talking about peace and cuckoo clocks.
More importantly, WHO CARES? O'Brian is a no talent would have been who has basked in the love of an ignorant sector of the population. But, enjoy, all.
You know, he says he can't help that his hair does that, but he really can - view some old Late Show clips. Please tame the wave, Conan. The other end of that road is the 'Phil Spectre' and you don't want to go there.
Somewhere Mike Nichols is rolling...his eyes. Hard.
It's a shame I'll have to give this a pass if it's not being released on CD. I love the idea that it's coming out on vinyl but have no real way of playing it anymore. And I'd rather watch Jay Leno than support the destruction of physical media by buying a download. If it shows up on CD I'll buy it.
Alex- they said vinyl and digital, right? So you can just download it, you don't have to get the vinyl.
Pretty impressed with what Conan's been doing since he left NBC.
I can't find the info, but from what I'd read, Conan discovered The White Stripes playing in New York and brought them on his old Late Night show and they'd become friends after that.. Conan then had them on several times throughout the run of his show and I believe they were the last band to play on Late Night before he moved to L.A.
@nick haha no i actually did try it and it did work. so i recommend you go on and try it yourself 😉 http://tinyurl. com/3yrh3qo
Believe it or not....peanut butter! Slap some on an english muffin and the protein from the pb, and the carbs from the em, should get you through the rest of the day! ; )
Weezy is really back! Its great that I can finally hear some quality rap songs played on radio! Its not like he actually left since he still had a a hit with Right above it. Soulja Boy and these other lames are too weak for me. GO WAYNE!!
