Biography

When Jack White formed The White Stripes with his big sister Meg in 1997 no one could have predicted the journey they would take. A love of early delta blues inspired Jack to take a minimalist approach to the music, one which included a simple drumming style by Meg as well as a red, white and black color scheme for everything from their stage clothing to their record sleeves.

5.0 out of 5 stars What a Great Christmas Gift Jack and Meg!, December 7, 2005
By 
This review is from: Walking With A Ghost + 4 Live Tracks (Audio CD)
Walking With A Ghost- A simple and already catchy tune to begin with kicks off this great EP. The song is given The WS treatment, with wailing guitar breaks (interesting Whammy work!), and of course; a charming drum beat from Meg! Jacks vocals are great as well. The other live songs have already been released on other various WS singles; however, I think the "Walking" cover, and really nice artwork justifie this purchase (and if you haven't heard the live songs on here, they are great too!) and is a great gift for any music fan!

4.0 out of 5 stars Interesting cover of Tegan & Sara, with great live bonus tracks, January 1, 2006
This review is from: Walking With A Ghost + 4 Live Tracks (Audio CD)
The White Stripes cap off another successful year with the December '05 release of this E.P., which contains some interesting live bonus tracks.

"Walking With a Ghost" (5 tracks, 19 min.) starts off with a sweet shout-out to Tegan & Sara, covering their "Walking With a Ghost" from their 2004 album "So Jealous". But the real meat on this E.P. are the 4 live tracks. Tracks 3 and 4 are radio in-studio live versions of "As Ugly As I Am" and a rousing "The Denial Twist" from the "Get Behing Me" album. "Same Boy You've Always Known" is a Jack-only accoustic take on the "White Blood Cells" track. The best is saved from last: a 5+ min. "Screwdriver" that showcases why the White Stripes are such an exciting live act. Jack and Meg are on the top of their game on this track, just great.

This E.P. is not "essential" in the White Stripes catalogue, but I look at it as a nice end-of-the-year gift to WS fans. While I'm not always sold on the WS albums, I have seen them live in 2005, and they surely are one of the most rousing live acts around, and this E.P. does justice to that.

4.0 out of 5 stars great stuff, especially for collectors, February 22, 2006
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Walking With A Ghost + 4 Live Tracks (Audio CD)
The live stuff on here is great, I can never hear enough versions of "Screwdriver".

The title track, a cover of a Tegan & Sara song, is great too. It actually served as a springboard for me to check out the original band, of whom I am now a big fan.
