Typh's somewhat weekly CD reviews

[The Germanator]

I'm not a huge Raconteurs fan and a friend was playing this new CD today and I thought it was okay...I just don't really find their style of rock and roll music all that appealing...Jack White is way too into just doing guitar shredding which is fine if you're into that kind of thing, but having to watch them live a few times, I got extremely bored of it. They are definitely a solid band, but it's not for me, and Jack White looks like a vampire if you get too close to him. He's got body guards too, so I didn't try to talk to him. Brendan Benson and "Little Jack" (bass player) seem a little more chilled out though.

Just got back from the Mama's Cookin' and JBT show and picked up the Mama's Cookin' album....Well more like had some guy just give it to me.



I'm quite enjoying it. Alot different then most of the new stuff I have heard and they were amazing live
