It baffles me why he is heralded as a savior of rock... he is talented, and has the potential to do something with his flare. But his formula is the secret recipe that everyone knows about. Take old blues licks and put 'em to a beat. He could use a better drummer to do accomplish this though...
Is there a reason for this thread? That remains to be seen... what do you think his place is within the realm of rock? A troubadour with conviction, or just another cultural fetish?
I would prefer if you didn't go down the road of comparing Jack White to other "virtuosos"... and it would be arbitrary to compare him to the edge... somehow I think that will come up.
If there's any discussion that is.
