Jack White in Barcelona


The summer is over and nothing better to return to the harsh reality that September bolus enjoy one of the best guitarists of recent times. Jack White.
Razzmatazz was the place we were going to enjoy that bolazo expected. After the odd contrast between the living and the street Almogàvers Sant Jordi Club, the organization opted for a more welcoming but I personally did not like much, as my past experiences in the room had not been entirely satisfactory and would not enjoy Jack White III with a bad sound (as seems so happened in Madrid). Thankfully I was wrong, as the Detroit blew the room to give an unforgettable concert that will remain in the retina and in the ears of those who could enjoy the virtuosity of former The White Stripes, The Dead Weather and The Raconteurs and others.
The evening began with Peggy Sue, the trio of two girls and a boy originating in Brighton and had not desentonaron most songs from their latest LP "Acrobats" (2011) in just over 30 minutes left to set the stage version "Hit the Road Jack" (the great Ray Charles made famous) in what would be an advance Gale to come.
Delayed (perhaps the only criticism of the show), half an hour later than planned and with the uncertainty that would accompany band Jack White (traveling with two bands one male and one female) and himself who decides minutes before go up on stage. Around 22:00 a girl took the microphone and asked in perfect Castilian enjoy the show without grabbing the phone and take pictures with him. A declaration of principles of the vintage look likes White, who is fond of guitar riffs without effects, burn your discs designed to be pressed on vinyl and its composition is based on blues workhorse.
Those chosen were The Peacocks, the six "women" accompanying JW graced the stage and took up positions to the hit "Sixteen Saltines" starting to show Mr. White. With blue dresses and distributed in drums, bass, keyboards, violin, vocals and even a lap steel guitar accompanying the musician is soon to orbit the public. With "Missing Pieces" the concert was going to stop and review their multiple projects with songs like "Blue Blood Blues" by Dead Weather and "Top Yourself" The Raconteurs. As the highlight of the evening reviewing his recent solo debut "Blunderbuss".
With better sound than in Madrid (as I said a fan who went to both) that apasionadora called White followed with songs from his solo album with towering peaks as "Freedom At 21", "Love Interruption" (included with your game sexy showgirl ) and a beautiful sound of keyboards with "Weep Themselves To Sleep" and "I Guess I Should Go To Sleep" where maybe you could see the only flaw in the sound that bothered himself Jack (perfectionist by nature).
There was also guitar playing for those unfamiliar with both the owner's last LP Third Man Records (his label) and there were issues of his time with Meg White in The White Stripes, "Hotel Yorba" and "We're Going to Be Friends ", from his more blues album" White Blood Cells ". Also classics like "My Doorbell" from "Get Behind Me Satan" and of course, the mega anthem "Seven Nation Army" of "Elephant" with which he closed the concert full of "lolololos" a Sunday when no one was without jumping, vibrate and enjoy at the height of indie, the closest thing there is today the old glories of rock n 'roll like Led Zeppelin authentic.Been a high-speed train called Jack White Barcelona Ladies and Gentlemen.
