Let's Shake Hands ft. David Buick

Hello. Nice to meet you. Let's shake hands!

In 1998, Dave Buick approached Jack White with an idea to produce a single for the White Stripes. Italy Records would go on to release the band's first two singles, playing a significant role in the early days of the group.

Dave and Ryan discuss the origins of Italy Records, the release history of "Let's Shake Hands," and the impact the song would have throughout the band's entire career.

David Buick is a Detroiter who founded Italy Records in 1997 and has worked with Third Man Records for over a decade.
