The Raconteurs Have a New Video

Salute Your Solution



Autumn DeWilde is at it again-- she created this video out of a bazillion individual photos, just like she did for Elliott Smith's "Son of Sam."

I'm liking Jack White's chops-- they remind me of the Dilettantes' Joel Gion!  I'm also (as usual) liking Jack's musical chops on the guitar-- at last, the return of Jack's blindingly shiny copper guitar!  Watching this video has me licking my chops to get my hands on the full album - Consolers of the Lonely, which came out today!  Here's a review of the record by our own Kaitlin.

The final shot of the back of the Raconteurs' heads in the video reminds me of that famous shot of The Beatles and their mop haircuts from the back.  Highly enjoyable.

Here They Come Again

The Raconteurs

But the real question is:  can we expect another Amoeba Instore with the fellas?
Here's hoping!

Oops, I lost myself there for a minute, forgive me. 

Everyone remember June 8, 2006 when The Raconteurs played not one but TWO Amoeba instores in one day, one in LA and one in San Francisco?  That was a great day.
