The White Stripes + Bob Dylan: The White Album

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!

R.I.P. The White Stripes (Life on the Flipsides)

So, The White Stripes have broken up. Snark what you will about the band's supposed inauthenticity, their visual gimmickry or about their becoming tabloid fodder, but Jack and Meg White were a powerful force for good in the aughts. Jack White's absolute commitment to all that is desperate, dark n' dirty in rock n' roll from pre-war blues, to rockabilly, to garage rock to punk and many points between forestalled rock's disappearance from the pop charts. Quite a feat for a duo who never had much truck with modern music.
