The Raconteurs - Old EnoughJust when I thought I had things all figured out along comes Jack White and his new best friends with "Consolers of the Lonely". I was a big fan of the White Stripes first two albums but something happened that I had no control over. A loudmouth redhead walked into my bar one sunday afternoon and she just wouldn't ever stop talking, she was from Seattle and she was a...

Yesterday(March 25) Jack White side group The Raconteurs released their sophomore album ??Consolers Of The Lonely??(Warner Bros.). A video for the first single from the album, "Salute Your Solution" was released on the same day. This album is unique in that the band has done no promotion previous to the album's release, and its existence was only confirmed a week before its release.Quite simply...

While I like the new Raconteurs record a lot, it wears it's influences a bit more nakedly than I'd like, and live those influences were all I could hear.Damn those high expectations.That said, "Salute Your Salution" (which I like to call "Blue Orchid II") was a serious high...
