Conan O'Brien 'to release comedy albums'

Conan O'Brien is to release two comedy albums featuring all new sketches and a collection of songs performed by his band.

The first release, And They Call Me Mad?, will include O'Brien's comedic take on the legend of Frankenstein and a recently recorded interview with the talkshow host conducted by White Stripes frontman Jack White, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

The second album, Conan O'Brien Live At Third Man, will be a recording of rockabilly songs performed by the comedian's band and White.

The two new albums will be released by the singer's Third Man record company and are expected to be available for purchase on iTunes next week.

O'Brien will return to TV this fall for a new late-night comedy show on TBS.
