White Stripes...


Recently went shopping in Banana Republic and was impressed by music inside the store...
Anyone would recommend a starting album to listen to?
I kind-of liked the mixture of influences they have:
some of Led Zeppelin, some of T-Rex and even Talking Heads.

Thanks folks!
Honestly,
The White Stripes is one of the least contemporary rock band that attracted my attention since my favourite 80's Talking Heads era...
Haven't heard any WS but Vanlear Rose I am sorry i bought. While sweet Loretta sounds good, it's like they stuck her country voice inside a rock band. It sounds like two different styles at the same time, they don't fit together, weird sounding. No different than if they stuck Hank Williams voice inside the Who.
I'd kinda like to hear Hank Williams with The Who...
"I'm so lonesome, I could join together with the band"!
Cheers,

LOL -- I like the white stripes for their originality. Breaking the rules of western music is different, but nothing that hasn't been done or tried before. Their saving grace with me was that Elephant was well recorded. So I bought it. I like it, but nothing to get too excited about.
