I can't make these comparisons in my own head, let alone by comparing those comparisons to other people's. I do, however, like Picasso.

I think Alison could probably take Meg in a straight up fight - does that help?
Dear NSA, I hope that you enjoy this post.

Jack Lawrence became the new Meg.

pigammon wrote:Personally? I think The Dead Weather and Blunderbuss are both pretty bloody fantastic - they're just a bit different is all. Lazaretto was a very disappointing album imo (only the singles were good!!) and the Racs just ain't up to scratch. I think, largely, the collective opinion of disappointment regarding anything Jack has done besides TWS is because some people can't really handle change, and they just want more and more and more Elephants and Icky Thumps and White Blood Cells, when ultimately that's not the mindset Jack is in, never mind Meg quietly quitting the music industry. We need to judge what he's doing on its own merits, and not on a "is-it-better-than-a-stripes-album" basis, because that Jack's dead and this is the Jack we have now.
Maybe your right,pigammon.

vs Rome vs all that other stuff.

Each to their own.

I'd like him to see JW get someone in to produce his next album. Hopefully spark some new ideas and perhaps a different sounding album.
That guy from the Black Keys perhaps - he certainly knows how to create hits ;-)

A Beck-produced Jack White album! Or just any kind of Jack White/Beck collaboration.

Aside from Beck's Blue Series and the Song Reader tune that Jack covered?

Yes I want more. I want a full-length album. Maybe multiple albums/singles. Call me greedy, I don't care.

I have that feeling all the time in relation to Jack's music and TMR releases :)

Picasso is way better than Mozart but Charles Dickens is better than both put together
