whats the difference in a band with traditionally one guitarist then.. white stripes guy is rhythm and lead depending on what part he's playing... but isnt this kid the Lead Rhythm Guitar in this situation! tee hee

White Stripes - Seven Nation Army

I knew of

Double Dagger ... punky band from baltimore

LCD Soundsystem ... guy who runs DFA but LCD was bigger than his own label somehow.

REM ... duh

The White Stripes ... duh

Ludicra ... metal band from east bay that had a wicked female vocalist

The Stills ... fuck em

Ponytail ... some weirdo mathy band from baltimore that probably should not have had a vocalist at all.

and Sonic Youth. Had no idea Sonic Youth threw in the towel but knew that Thurston and Kim are getting divorced which is sad in and of itself.


All I know is that I did not see Lou Reed or Metallica on the list ... leaves me disappointed.

Bands I recognized from this video:
The White Stripes
REM

Interesting version of the White Stripes' Seven Nation Army.

Cheers!

Thank NPR for outting this chick for a new generation (25 Jan 2011, Morning Edition):

Looky there for a full track/album listen of her new release of covers (at age 73) that was done at the impetus of Jack White of the White Stripes.

BUT, as they warn, "The Party Ain't Over will stream here in its entirety until Jan. 25. Please leave your thoughts on the album in the comments section below"
One day only...Pacific Standard Time.

If you guys enjoy this stuff, check out a series of albums called "pickin on" There are probably around a hundred or so albums of nothing but bluegrass covers. Some of my favorites include
Pickin on classic rock
Pickin on green day
Pickin on AC/DC
Pickin on the White stripes
Pickin on widespread panic
Pickin on the Grateful Dead

The cover of Southern Cross by Crosby Stills and Nash on pickin on classic rock 2 is incredible..

In fact, I think I'll sift a live version of the original, damn that's an amazing song
update edit: http://videosift.com/video/Southern-Cross-live-by-Crosby-Stills-and-Nash

you can preview the pickin on version on amazon but that's the best I could find

Good music is so hard to get sifted anymore.

I put some links to the DVD in my above post. The White Stripes are so fantastic live.>> ^Abel_Prisc:
Sweet! I went to the Calgary show during this tour. AMAZING performance. I'm excited to see the footage of it.

Just a tad bit whiiiiny....lacks soul-Try this cover of Joss Stone's "Fell in Love With a Girl", from the White Stripes for a tutorial-and lose the spatula

Conan plays a mean guitar. Back on his old show he's played with The White Stripes before.

wish Ida picked girls that loved music as much as I do.....one in a million, so they say...Just look at the white stripes...guy/girl/love=millions....prolly poor now and still in love..
