Chief amongst the virtues of Jack White was his reverence for so much of the best that had gone before him. And chief amongst his revered elders was none other than Mr. Bob Dylan. (more rare White Stripes here.)
Fortunately, White often interpreted some of the less beat-to-death items of the Dylan catalog, whether it was "Lovesick" , "Outlaw Blues", "One More Cup of Coffee or "Meet Me in the Morning".
As the art indicates, this collection of Dylan (and Dylan-related) live cover songs was expertly compiled, annotated and designed by StewART, though I can't yet determine if he ever made a volume two!

I think Jack's obsession with Dylan was totally understandable. I would guess that he wish to emulate the best and his willingness to bathe in the river of time that is Dylan's catalog provided first hand experience in how to write a song and if he did his extra-credit homework (which he obviously did) how to re-interpret his own material and re-invent himself as Dylan did.
ReplyDeleteI think he learned his lessons well!
Looking forward to this.
ReplyDeleteThanks
Thanks for the White Stripes stuff. This kind of boot--where the complier has been very thoughtful--is always great to see.
ReplyDeleteLove the White Stripe's version of Love Sick; Looking forward to checking out the rest of these
ReplyDeletethanks for posting this again!
ReplyDeleteNo Vol 2 yet, but I have enough tracks to do something soon !
Will be listed on the Watchtower torrent site when done

Thanks for the good words for stewArt - they are fitting.

Great work, man and 400 d/l's in 24 hours is pretty damn near a record here!
If you want to drop a line here when you're done v. 2 that'd be great but I'll try to keep my eye on Watchtower regardless.
Thanks again.
Thanks a lot for this. A really great choice of covers. They sure have good taste
ReplyDeleteExciting to see this! Thanks. Both Bob and Jack tap the blue root of the Americana tree, so it's fitting younger sings older. I'd like the hear the vice versa too (say, "You're Pretty Good Lookin' for a Girl"?)
ReplyDeleteCheers,
but thanks for this download! Perish the Stripes... but they left behind a great body of tunes... and played a role in semi-rescuing rock and roll from banal tendencies at the turn of the century
ReplyDeleteWhen something goes musically wrong or sad in the world, I turn to Dylan. Therefore, this is a fitting post. I can't wait to hear it!
ReplyDeleteI've appreciated Jack's appreciation of Dylan since I first heard "One More Cup of Coffee".
ReplyDeletethanks for this comp
Ingvar
ReplyDeleteThey certainly do
JBull
yeah Bob should do more WS's songs.

Well-put, sir, well-put.

Bob is there for just about every phase of your life.
Aikain
that was my first exposure to Dylan-Stripes as well.
thanks
ReplyDeleteAny chance of relinking this jewel?
ReplyDeleteYou know what, Jack White and Bob Dylan are the two greatest musicians of all time!!!!
