Groovy White Stripes website and downloads

Here's a groovy little fan site for the White Stripes that you may want to check out: White Stripes Net. Someone's obviously putting some time into making a fine site for the discerning fan.

The site features a good download page. For starters, they've got the video for "Portland Oregan," which was Jack White's duet with Loretta Lynn, from the excellent Van Lear Rose album that he produced for her in 2004. It's worth a download. For one thing, it's interesting how do-able Loretta's looking, at every bit of 70 years old.

Among other things, they also have apparently a whole live show from 2002. If you're into nasty, squealing, pig-humpin' blues guitar, you should definitely hear the live version of "Ball and Biscuit."

    I love the video for The Hardest Button to Button, which shows the Stripes at their minimalist, can't-take-your-eyes-off-them best.

    I really love their sound, there's something raucous, soothing, and timeless about it all at once.
