jack white lazaretto full album free mp3 download

“Temporary Ground”, “Alone in My Home”, and “Entitlement” are as solid in composition as the songs of a low-key indie type like Doug Paisley. White lives in Tennessee now, and taking into account his arena-stomp pedigree and the history of his adopted home, the term “alt country” has rarely been more appropriate. For the first time in White’s performing career, though, the second group is more representative of the record as a whole and more crucial to its success. But Lazaretto can be neatly divided into electrics and acoustics, or side A and side B, respectively. Some of the electric numbers here, like “Just One Drink”, are relatively subdued, while acoustic-oriented songs like “I Think I Found the Culprit” get beefed up eventually. (Read: Jack White: Record Store Day At Third Man Records) As an 11-song, 39-minute distillation of his fascination, Lazaretto works more or less as well as 2012’s Blunderbuss, his solo debut. Based on his work with The White Stripes, The Raconteurs, The Dead Weather, and now his solo material (not to mention his Third Man stunts or the dozens of albums he’s produced), it’s frank that he’s an obsessive. That’s fine considering the lifetime of study behind the music. And maybe he doesn’t mean to inspire the discussion he does, but the album has the distinct quality of being of an earlier time. Lazaretto, White’s self-produced second solo album, isn’t that old-timey. The acceleration of music production, including the unfathomable swell of the untold thousands of SoundCloud users, is leaving even the most historic music in the figurative and literal dust. When White undertakes something like the Paramount Records Wonder-Cabinet (an 800-song archival project featuring everyone from Louis Armstrong to Charlie Patton and Son House), his dream for the preservation of such music seems as necessary as it does purist. Who can blame Jack White for all his playing, creating, curating, and refurbishing? An increasing number of people are interested in the history of pre-WWII American music there are enough of them, anyway, that the recent New York Times Magazine cover story about blues legends Geeshie Wiley and Elvie Thomas wasn’t that out of the ordinary.
