Rate the Song Above You

I am also a huge blues fan, both the older classic stuff, but especially so hear what modern groups are doing with it, shamelessly pushing the blues boundaries. I think Jack White in lots of ways is way ahead of his time. He is what most poser bands trying to sound "edgy" wish they were, and it comes about as he just explores his own musical interests instead of trying to be "different". You get that feel when you watch videos of his interviews, studio sessions and his favorite song, which I will link to for whoever is interested. In the meantime, the video:

And his favorite song...

Alright for some reason I get no sound from that video, just google it, it is great. But here is another excerpt from the video "It Might Get Loud". Google that too, worth a watch.

Another cool video with Jack White, Jimmy Page, and the Edge playing 7 Nation Army.

Enjoy!
 
I have no idea which song you want me to rate but I'll go ahead and rate the Vimeo video with the crazy music video, Jack White - Sixteen Saltines. Garage rock or whatever that is isn't the type of music I usually go for but this wasn't bad at all. 5.5/10

10/10 - - aside from the fact that I love, love, love this song - - it is one of the most classic of classics, never gets old



Along the lines of the Velvet Underground, but not really...

One of my favorite bands around, the Drive-By Truckers:

6/10 - Good, but not authentic enough for my taste and poor performance. Dig the animation tho.

My wife and I danced to this song at our wedding.

No song to rate.

Here's one that goes well with some current events taking place.

well, I was just about to rate it... you guys are fast - I was just giving it a second listen

Wolf Teeth (about 2 or 3 posts above)
8/10 - a little repetitive, but I liked the beat, has sort of a skiffle sound

Baltimore is the new Brooklyn
6.5/10 - interesting concept and decent song but a little generic sounding

and now Baby P's contribution:
Red Fang - Prehistoric Dog
5.5/10 - takes too long for the song to start, but not bad for what it is, good solid hard rock sound


try this...

Moe you can't post anything with Jimmy Paige, its not fair. 10/10

Wye Oak: 4/10. A little too cheesy and a bit on the dull side for me.

Time for some blue-eye soul.

St. Paul and Broken Bones - Call me
7.5/10 - decent song, but probably something I'd prefer to hear live rather than on the radio or ipod

Fox on the Run 7/10. Decent classic rock

I really like this so I'm going to comment. 8/10

Here's my soulful contribution. Skip to 0:35 to avoid Letterman's blathering.
