JuanCarlosVejar Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 I'm a fan . His guitar playing is amazing and his solo album is great it has three grammy nominations and some british award nomination too . That interview is really good I was going to post it but alot of people here don't seem to care for him at least I think so JC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grampa Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Jack White is very cool. Did you see him on Austin City Limits recently? He played with two different bands, one all male and the other all female. It was great!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zombywoof Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 While I generally embrace a minimalist style of playing not really a fan. I do respect his producing and ability to have a real rock star meltdown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ParlourMan Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 I quite like him, he sings in crazy keys and he sort of looks a bit like a time traveling mormon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blindboygrunt Posted January 17, 2013 Author Share Posted January 17, 2013 good description PM if one listened to the 'get behind me satan' cd and was told it was robert plant singing it would be easy to believe. very eerie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jt Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 I always thought him interesting and sort of liked his stuff, though my take on his guitar playing is that it's effective but, to paraphrase Eric Clapton's description, he doesn't exhibit a lot of craft. Then I saw him live and was completely won over. Just brilliant stuff. Here's my review for Fretboard Journal of his headlining set at last summer's Lollapalooza.

Wow, thats one heluva review there JT. Trust he makes it to Prague sometime, the gothic pseudo setting here would suit him too a tee like it does for Nick Cave, PJ Harvey and the like ..

Quite the review of both Clark and White. Effusive, to say the least. You don't seem prone to hyperbole so I think I need to find out about Clark and definitely dig deeper into Jack Whites' offerings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zombywoof Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 ZW , so you think he is not minamalistic ? Yup, I sure do. That as my point. I actually prefer White when he is chugging away on a mandolin or acoustic. But what Jack White reminds me of is a whole bunch of guys (myself included) when we first started out on electric guitar. Take three chords - play them a few octaves higher or lower, turn the amp up to 10 and then throw in a Fuzz Face or whatever to add even more distortion and then maybe grab a slide. I just can't help but sometimes get the feeling that White may just be putting us all on. Alot of high camp with a healthy dose of artifice. But hey, I like him a whole lot better than the Edge.
