kaiser Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 I love The White Stripes. "Death Letter" off of "De Stijl" is like a junior version of Zep's "In My Time Of Dying", so I happy to see Page & White along with the Edge play that song in "It Might Get Loud".

Otto Masson Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 There already is a thread devoted to the Stripes - it's here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquamarine Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 It could be time to revive this thread-- Stripes thread I adore that band, though as they've now been inactive for a while and for the foreseeable future, it might be better to turn it into a Jack White/Dead Weather thread. (Btw, I don't think Death Letter is a junior version of anything, though I agree that the three of them playng IMTOD was the highlight of IMGL! ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaiser Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 (Btw, I don't think Death Letter is a junior version of anything, though I agree that the three of them playng IMTOD was the highlight of IMGL! ) I don't even know what that means but "Death Letter" is my favorite White Stripes song with "Let's Build A Home" & "Bound To Pack It Up" not that far behind. That whole album is a modern classic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otto Masson Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Snap, Otto! Doesn't matter - happy new year Aqua! Kaiser, IMGL = It Might Get Loud and IMTOD = In My Time of Dying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquamarine Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Happy New Year Otto! Sorry to write in acronyms, Kaiser, but I hope it's now clear what I was saying! I was just disagreeing that Death Letter was a junior version of In My Time of Dying, as apart from the fact they both use slide I don't think they've got much in common. But I too love that whole album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I too love that whole album. Oh, ok. Sorry, I was a bit confused. But that's what I was referring to as far as Jack's guitar playing on "Death Letter". I feel it's somewhat similar to Page's on parts of "IMTOD", even though "Death Letter" as a song is completely stripped down & "IMTOD" is an ambitous musical monster, that's why I said "junior" in regards to "Death Letter", not as a slight to either song as I love them both. I can't wait until that White Stripes box set comes out. It's not out yet is it? I'm a little behind on dates of releases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ninelives Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 I love the White Stripes a ton but I have to say I think of all Jack's projects, Dead Weather is by far the one I'm most drawn to. They were phenomenal live and I love the record. I hope he'll do another album with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
