Rock 'n Roll is alive and well - Jack White

<p>Wow. I pretty much think that music is a wasteland these days, but Jack White’s new album released this week is some seriously creative rock n’ roll. He is playing with a whole bunch of genres. Here a few samples:</p>

<p>I just watched his live 2 hour American Express webcast of a concert from NYC tonight. He’s touring with two bands. The Penguins is an all-girl band. The Buzzards is an all guy band. He did a set with each band tonight. Both were fantastic.</p>

<p>He’s a bit of an acquired taste, but I suspect this will be the album this year.</p>

<p>Rebroadcast of the concert is starting now:</p>

<p>Cool. D has tickets to Sasquatch next month & White is one of the headliners.
Thanks for the links!</p>

<p>Thanks, interested dad.</p>

<p>Idad Check out this band. They will be Jack White’s opener starting in Nashville – they’ll be a Sasquatch next month too.</p>

<p>He is brilliant and Blunderbuss is a phenomenal album. I’m seeing him in LA on Monday. I can’t wait.</p>

<p>Love Alabama Shakes too. I will be seeing them and Jack White again at Outside Lands in August.</p>

<p>Another in the blues rock genre that I love right now is Gary Clark Jr. The man is a guitar god.</p>

<p>Here is A taste. <a href=“Gary Clark Jr. - Bright Lights [Official Music Video] - YouTube”>Gary Clark Jr. - Bright Lights [Official Music Video] - YouTube;

<p>Saw him on Colbert the other night. IMHO, the interview was better than the music. Definitely an acquired taste which I don’t have.</p>

<p>YouTube VEVO now has the entire Jack White concert from last night up:</p>

<p>My favorite song was the guy band doing the White Stripes song:</p>

<p>[We’re</a> Going to Be Friends](<a href=“- YouTube”>http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=MJYy9QaPGD4#t=5251s)</p>

<p>And, this one’s pretty awesome. A Hank Williams song about a cheating red haired woman (White just divorced his red haired fashion model wife).</p>

<p>[You</a> Know That I Know](<a href=“- YouTube”>- YouTube)</p>

<p>The most charismatic performer I have EVER seen on stage. The first time was around nine years ago with Meg in the White Stripes. He is brilliant.
It’s funny, I was just listening his “Evil” with Tom Jones when this post popped up: <a href=“Tom Jones feat. Jack White - Evil - YouTube”>www.youtube.com/watch?v=rudl6CCDozg</a></p>

<p>I am also getting a kick out of his recent antics with my favorite actor Gary Oldman.</p>

<p>The girl band is rockin’ some Raconteurs (my favorite Jack White band):</p>

<p>Darn, how did I miss a Jack White/Tom Jones duet?</p>

<p>His duets with female artists are all pretty amazing:</p>

<p>And my favorite, the band is just smoking…</p>

<p>Some of his duets with Allison Mosshart in The Dead Weather are pretty crazy, too:</p>
