Jack White - Acoustic Recordings 1998-2016 - 2LP

The 26-track double album features alternate versions, mixes and previously unreleased recordings from The White Stripes, The Raconteurs and solo material all completely remastered, this is the essential Jack White songwriting collection.

The album, arranged in chronological order, includes acoustic songs made famous by The White Stripes, beginning with 'Sugar Never Tasted So Good' (originally found on The White Stripes' second-ever 7-inch single) and then lighting upon favourites like 'Apple Blossom' and 'I'm Bound To Pack It Up' (remixed here from the original recordings on 2000's De Stijl), 'Hotel Yorba' and 'We're Going To Be Friends' (from 2001's 'White Blood Cells'), 'You've Got Her In Your Pocket' and 'Well It's True That We Love One Another' (from 2003's Grammy Award-winning 'Elephant'), 'Forever For Her (Is Over For Me),' 'White Moon' and 'As Ugly As I Seem' (from 2005's 'Get Behind Me Satan'), 'Effect and Cause' (from 2007's 'Icky Thump'), and the Beck-produced 'Honey, We Can't Afford To Look This Cheap,' first found on the B-side to The White Stripes' final single, 2007's 'Conquest.' Also featured are 'Never Far Away' (recorded for 2003's 'Cold Mountain') and 'Love Is The Truth' (written and recorded for Coca-Cola's 2006 What Goes Around campaign) as well as the Bluegrass Version of 'Top Yourself' and an acoustic mix of the epic murder ballad, 'Carolina Drama,' both written by White and Brendan Benson for The Raconteurs' Grammy Award-winning 2008 album, 'Consolers of the Lonely'. White's two chart-topping solo albums, 2012's 'Blunderbuss' and 2014's 'Lazaretto', are represented by a remarkably diverse range of material including 'Love Interruption,' 'On And On And On,' 'Blunderbuss,' 'Entitlement,' 'Want And Able,' and alternative mixes of 'Hip (Eponymous) Poor Boy,' 'Just One Drink,' 'I Guess I Should Go To Sleep,' and B-side, 'Machine Gun Silhouette.'
