Sense of Place Detroit - Vintage Cafe: White Stripes’ Jack White from 2003

October 21, 2013 - Jack White may have left Detroit for Nashville but Detroit is the city where The White Stripes began and Third Man records as well.
This session took place in 2003 when The White Stripes career had blown up with the success of the album Elephant. Jack discusses that success and also all the music he loves from the blues to Loretta Lynn. He and drummer Meg White play live for us as well.
