The White Stripes' "Under Great White Northern Lights" (2010)
(March 16, 2010)
Review:
On their first live album, Jack and Meg White deliver adrenaline-fueled, frenetic performances of some of the best material from their catalog, tearing through each song with a raw energy that displays a simultaneous mastery of and disregard for form.
Top Two Tracks:
“Blue Orchid” & “300 MPH Torrential Outpour Blues”
Hello Laptop Session lovers! Today, in addition to a regular Laptop Session, I give you a video montage of what we’ve been doing lately!
As I mentioned previously, Christmastime is my favorite time of the year. Having a condo for the first year (first Christmas, as we moved in last February), I’ve been very excited and ambitious when it comes to making the place look nice.
So, we put a ton of lights on the outside and plenty of decorations inside. Some of it was a pain (Like these sticky squares that are supposed to keep the lights on the wall. The lights fall off, but the squares take the paint off the walls!), but most of it was fun.
I hope you enjoy this little trip into our lives as we celebrate the Holiday Season!
The song in the background is “Run Rudolph Run” by my band “Masters of the Universe” at http://jimfusco.com/albums.html. You can purchase the Christmas Concert 2006 CD or DVD (which contains that song and 29 others!) on our online store at http://jimfusco.com/mou-xmas-concert.html. Check it out- it’s a really cool store with a TON of stuff, including some free music downloads and wallpapers!
Okay, I’ve ranted enough, but the last thing I’ll say is that I’d love to see other people’s decorations! We only have a condo, but I’m sure someone with a house could put on a GREAT show, as I hope to do someday (like my parents do).
Merry Christmas, everyone,
~Jim
