Enjoy your Friday with a special, blusey acoustic session from Jack White for the Paris-based La Blogothèque at the end of this article.

During the performance on the Takeaway Show, White airs ‘The Same Boy You’ve Always Known‘ (this particular writer’s absolute favourite White Stripes track if anyone else cares…) and ‘Entitlement’ from the much more recent effort ‘Lazaretto‘.

The session is yet another leg of White’s promotional campaign behind that second solo album, whose so-called Ultra Vinyl version, containing hidden tracks, dual speeds, hand-etched holograms, alternate mixes and plenty more besides, has become the US’ biggest selling LP on the vinyl format since 1994.

“In a tabloid driven era where instant gratification and overly saturated information streams are available at the touch of a button, Jack White stands alone in the music industry as a refreshingly traditional figure,” Live4ever’s ‘Lazaretto’ review begins.

“Representing a direct link back to the mythical world of the Delta Blues, alongside the subsequent Dylan and Rolling Stones blues rock era, White is a steadfast advocate of such tangible and authentic values which had seemingly become distorted amongst a disposable, portable market.”
