  The White Stripes Biography
The White Stripes are a minimalist rock and roll duo from Detroit.
Billing themselves as brother and sister, guitarist and singer Jack White and his ex-wife, drummer Meg White, released their self-titled debut album in 1997.
Their follow-up to White Blood Cells, entitled Elephant, was released on April 1, 2003, again to widespread critical acclaim.

 Drummerworld: Alan White
White passed through the lineups of a lot of short-lived late-'60s outfits including Ginger Baker's Airforce (playing some keyboards there as well), where he was in the unfortunate position of working alongside legendary drummer Phil Seaman, who managed to eclipse his younger colleague at every turn.
For the most part, however, White became the bedrock of the group's sound during the turbulent late-'70s era, when Yes was struggling with membership changes and the end of the progressive rock boom, which reduced their sales and audience.
Indeed, it was White's breaking his ankle (at a roller-disco, no less) in late 1979 that precipitated the momentary end of the band that year, amid a disastrous attempt at recording a new album.

White's production--mostly stark and atmospheric--ranges from more-traditional country to straight-up White Stripes, with most tracks falling somewhere in between.
White duets with Lynn on the rousing one-night-stand story "Portland, Oregon," but he does not need to sing to leave his personal stamp.
Now, Jack White has done the same for Loretta Lynn, another country legend whose music is simply too raw and honest for the contemporary country crowd.

Jack wanted Lynn to write all of the 13 songs on the album, reminding Loretta of her longtime legendary country producer Owen Bradley.

I was a little worried that Jack White of the White Stripes would somehow corrupt Loretta Lynn's style - but he has masterfully produced this album, adding modern personal touches that add to, not detract from the classic Loretta Lynn sound.
Portland, Oregon, Jack White's duet with Loretta Lynn, is by far the most modern, and least-Loretta Lynn song on the album, though still a great track.

The White Stripes, on the other hand, belong to a generation that seems to value taste over transcendence, mixing and matching a dizzying array of influences without getting their own experience of the world down on tape.
Like Jack White, the Stooges' frontman, Iggy Pop, began his musical career as a drummer for a series of Detroit-area garage bands.
Unlike White, Pop was old enough to sit in with his heroes, traveling to Chicago in the late 1960s, palling around with Howlin' Wolf sideman Sam Lay and sitting in with a series of fl session men.

A press statement from the Von Bondies' management claims "Stollsteimer was violently attacked by Jack White of the White Stripes without warning or provocation." It continues: "White approached Stollsteimer during the concert, physically forcing him against the speakers, and began shouting.
White played a major role in kick-starting the Von Bondies' career, including them on the Sympathetic Sounds of Detroit album he produced in 2001, inviting them to open for the White Stripes, and producing their 2001 record, Lack of Communication.

Now Jack White, in between gigs with the White Stripes and assaulting members of the Von Blondies, has hopped into bed with country music icon Loretta Lynn for a killer album destined to be a high water mark for both parties.
White is clearly a Loretta Lynn fanboy- 2002's White Blood Cells was dedicated to her and last year's triumphant Elephant featured the Whites on the cover adorned in country attire.
With Jack's prodding, this is also the first album Lynn has written all the tunes for (the shimmering Loretta/Jack duet Portland Oregon"is the only co-written piece), and the sheer quality of each track is staggering.

From the red and white peppermint candy motif of their debut singles, self-titled album, and stage show to their on-the-surface rudimentary style, they succeeded wildly and immediately with that mission.
The album was a critical smash and the White Stripes soon found themselves, along with the Strokes and the Hives, at the forefront of the new wave of rock & roll bands poised to take over the world.
The White Stripes truly became big time rock stars when their "Fell in Love with a Girl" clip was nominated for four MTV Video Awards including Best Video of the Year (alongside Eminem and *NSYNC!), Breakthrough Video, Best Special Effects in a Video and Best Editing in a Video.

Collaborating with bandmates Michael Lardie and Mark Kendall, producer Blades, and longtime friend Don Dokken, Russell explored his own colorful past to pen the lyrics to the rollicking "Rollin' Stoned" and "Gone to the Dogs", an adrenalized ode to overindulgence.
Great White has been churning out memorable songs since the early 80's, when Russell and Kendall joined forces and adopted the blues-based sound that went against the era's glam rock grain.
Great White ended the Once Bitten… tour with a headlining show at London's Marquee Club, and returned to Europe on the Monsters of Rock tour with Kiss, Iron Maiden, and Anthrax.

 A definitive oral history: Revealing The White Stripes
For Jack, the idea was to get a bunch of these bands that are similar in the way they sound -- "I'm gonna record all of them using the same drum kit, the same amps, in my house, and who cares.
Amid it all, Jack and Meg toyed with the press, continuing to insist they were siblings -- part of a sly mystique that many close to the band remain reluctant to talk about.
Jack was like, "Hold on, I'll be right back." And he went to Brian Muldoon's house and came back and fixed the whole thing.

Sonically, Jack White’s production sounds as if you are sitting there with him and Meg as an audience of one; not all of the songs work perfectly, but many are amazing and astonishingly direct.
For Jack White, this means seething, stripped-down ballads full of piano and marimba; for Meg WhiteÂ…well, it mostly means beating the crap out of her cymbals.
Although purists may dig the fact that The White Stripes appear to spit in the face of success, there’s a certain marketability to all this nonsense that may or may not be intentional.

 Paste Magazine :: Feature :: Loretta Lynn :: Jack White Finds Gold With The Coal Miner's Daughter (Page 1)
But just as producer Rick Rubin knew how to reclaim the innate power in Johnny Cash’s music by stripping it down to its essence, someone outside the Nashville establishment realized creating another classic Loretta Lynn album meant once again pairing her inimitable persona with her voice’s undiluted purity and her songwriting’s naked honesty.
On this day, she’s fresh from a David Letterman appearance with Jack White and the Do-Whaters (so named by Lynn because of their ability to “do whatever” she wanted as a backing band), making a brief stop before heading back out on the road.
No doubt, their performance of “Portland, Oregon”—a curiously unwinding duet with White, as much wall-of-sound as it is honky-tonk, that weaves through a minute-and-a-half intro before Lynn’s entry—provided a moment of pop-culture trivia.

 Loretta Lynn Van Lear Rose - A Hollywood Jesus Music Review
this song is a duet with Jack White, and it is delivered with the earnest conviction of a woman who has been there and back and yet still lives to talk about her journey.
Her latest album, the Jack White-produced Van Lear Rose, is poised now to remind the world yet again of Lynn’s power as a vocalist and her skill as a songwriter.
Such a down-home vocal style was Loretta’s birthright; it was more or less the way she had sang back in Kentucky, it was the style she took with her to Washington, and it was a vocal approach particularly well-suited to the duet sides she soon made in Nashville with honky-tonk legend Ernest Tubb.

Jack and Meg White hit the ground running with the chugging shuffle "Seven Nations," with its infectious bass line and thudding cadence.
Not surprisingly, the blues are never far from the equation, particularly on the heavy stomper "Ball and Biscuit" with its bursts of screaming guitar solos.
Equally impressive is Jack White's slide guitar on the pleading "I Want to Be the Boy to Warm Your Mother's Heart" and six-string histrionics on the chugging "Girl, You Have No Faith In Medicine" that shakes and shimmies with Stooges-like aggression.

During her session work with producer Jack White of the rock duo, the White Stripes, Lynn would hold his hand and say, "This is really gonna shake 'em up." Judging by the mainstream media attention the album is receiving, she was right.
After decades in the studio with famed producer Owen Bradley, White wanted to capture the sound of the Coal Miner's daughter in one take, when possible.
The twenty-something producer and great-grandmother also recorded a duet on Lynn's song, "Portland Oregon," a song about a drunken one-night stand.
