White Stripes need a home
The White Stripes are currently without a record label thanks to the apparent demise of V2. My favorite band to blow up in the '00s without a home? This does not sit well. Here are a couple YouTube clips of the Stripes doing Dylan to ease the pain.
Watch and learn kids as Jack and Meg pound the audience with a heavy remake of Bob Dylan's "Outlaw Blues." The duo transforms this 40 year-old album filler into a seething kiss-off. Check it out if only to hear Jack sneer: "Don't ask me nothing about nothing, I might just tell you the truth."
The White Stripes do a killer (and rather scary) version of Dylan's "Love Sick" that finds crazy Jack alternating between manic keyboards and nasty guitar while Meg bangs the drum slowly but with the might of a mad woman.
The White Stripes have also covered Dylan's "One More Cup of Coffee" and "Isis" over the years. But the real magic occurred at a show March 17, 2004, in Detroit when Jack White joined Dylan and his band for a version of the Stripes' "Ball and Biscuit."
Here's to hoping Dylan and White do an official collaboration in the near future ... You know, as soon as The White Stripes find a new home!
