I love gigs where you can get so close and lean on the stage lights. Keep your stadium shows and your armies of security; this is how it should be right here.
@@InnerDness his E broke cause his strap fell off mid solo and when he threw it back over his shoulder it snapped. His guitar was fighting him that entire performance lol
@@_dmfd According to his interviews, he absolutely loves those difficulties and challenging nuances. In fact, he goes out of his way to create them each show.
I’m a full grown man and this song brings tears to my eyes.. I don’t even know why.. it just rocks me to my core. Something fuckin beautiful about it. Would love to hear more of this style. Nothing more to say than awesome!
If you're looking for something goosebumps wise there are two other songs that do this for me. Nick Cave, this gets me every fucking time>> /watch?v=KCvgkDjUR24 and Brutus - /watch?v=hEdmzn41tTU&list=FLtUkPNMijjVsYjwlAR5UWzQ&index=6 I hope you enjoy them my friend.
We’ve all run a vessel ashore when it should’ve been docked. Seen this guy live multiple times over 20 years, one of the last rock stars. Continues to play with musicians from Detroit where he came up. Never seen him mail it in.
Jack White is clearly one of the greatest talents of our generation. You are truly appreciated, at least by me. Yeah, 9th time I've listened to this song, consecutively. Midas Touch brother. Yeah- tipsy here, but that does not negate the truth.
he is. and despite his acclaim and recognition,i still feel he is underappreciated. he will be in the same league as Hendrix one day. I just hope he doesn't go out prematurely.
Awesome, simply awesome. THIS is pure rock music, no homogenization, just gritty, sweaty energy. If I close my eyes I could be sitting in my bedroom in the 70's listening to one of my albums on my quadraphonic stereo system. I haven't liked a new band this much in ages.
there are moments in music when you just arnt listening to someones voice and instrument, but you can actually hear their soul speaking out. This is one of the moments
This live performance, Queen during Live Aid and Prince performing Purple Rain live at the Syracuse in ’85, Marks a couple of the best live rock performances i’ve ever seen, just a whole different level of musical mastery.
I think about it before I jack off into the water when someone ask me for a cup of water at my house, and then I laugh my ass off. Watching some one choke on unexpected jizz is the best!
Another masterpiece from JW. He will go down as a historic piece of guitatr history. I am 44 and have seen some great ones in my time , and he is right up there.
oh my God! Where have you people been?? I used to watch this daily until I bought it... You all came to your senses..lol! I'm just playing, I couldn't live without ALL of these musicians music! Mad love for Jack White, Q.O.T.S.Age, The Greenhornes & The Kills!!! LOVE YOU ALL ;)
I may not be a fan of the Dead Weather so much, but this is easily among the top single performances by Jack on guitar. He really takes it out stretches his limits. Bravo sir, bravo
The Most amazing Thing with JW is the fact that every single time you ear a riff from this guy and go look for it somewhere its brand new. And every time you ear such beautiful lyrics and go look for them we find out they are just from his head. Our true Dylan, without the anti-hero bull...
I love music so fucking much I hear it and feel it differently then most people. in the album version of this song if you listen close you can hear crickets chirpping in the back ground. that's pure genius to incorporate the sound of a bug into the music. JACK WHITE, YOU ARE A MUSIC GENIUS.
Blues this good is only visible in black and white, color isn't visible in this key and wavelength. Going from Mach, to warp and light speed, hyperspace, then to plaid, you cross back over to black and white and the monochromatic spectrum. The math and theory is difficult to explain, but involves proper tuning.
Did anyone else notice that he played most of this song with a broken high E string? You can see it dangling off the guitar. Now THAT is a mark of a true musician.
Dean Fertita-QOTSA/The Waxwings on keys, Jack White-The White Stripes/The Raconteurs/Blunderbuss solo album, Alison Mosshart-The Kills/Discount and playing drums for Mr White(this song) is LJ Lawrence-The Greenhornes/The Raconteurs/The Dead Weather. :)
this is so good. watched them play this on the pyramid stage at glastonbury during the hottest festival in memory in 2010 - totally scorched earth. mosshart seared into my memory forever that sweltering saturday afternoon!
I try to remember how many times I've been to the Roxy. I cannot. Then it weirds me out, thinking my mom and dad hung out here in the 60s-or-early-70s. They might have seen the stage show of the Rocky Horror show there at the Roxy. I gave them the movie to watch several years ago, and left them. They laughed pretty hard watching it as if in a private joke. They hung out at the Whiskey and all the clubs back then on the sunset strip. My uncle was tight with some of the club owners and got my parents pass the lines and the then velvet ropes. My family, mom dad, uncles used to see the Doors when the Doors were the house band at the Whiskey. I think i tried to get tix for this Dead Weather gig. It was sold out long before i tried, if i remember correctly. I think this was a show even before the first album release, or just after. I did see them three times, in two days here in LA. once for free at their pop-up store show. Thank you
What are you doing, writing a grad school thesis? This is you tube, and hal those listening or reading can hold on for a line or two of a comment. Self important much?
Wow , been a while I didn't listen to something this good! I love when he starts playing solos and I'm like ''Awwwwwww Yeahhhhhhh'' these guys know about good music
Mind-blowing when I saw them live last year and they played this. It didn't hit until halfway through that Jack was singing the high part and Alison the low. Not in this version, but when it happened it was mind-fuckery. Loved it.
The Dead Weather is the most unexpected phenomenon over the last 1-2 years... Jack and Alison's fusion resulted in unbearable chemistry, dark smoky punk blues.. in being 1 of 2 bands to satisfy my special need for sensuality, elusiveness, intensity, sex, passion, tension, emotions, severity, wildness... etc..in music.
Lol....I like it. I honestly don't own any of their music, so I don't mean to offend their true fans. You demonstrate your maturity, because most people rip me a new a-hole for the slightest difference in interpretation.
+bev This song was the last in the set. Trust me, that's very exhausting to play a concert. Jack was also a drummer through all the song exept this one. Thats why they sink in sweat :P
Stage lights are ridiculously hot...if the people responsible for them don’t know what they are doing and hang them too close or use too many, they can literally blister your skin by the end of a 2hr set.
![The Raconteurs - From The Basement Full Set [HD]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/fMwbrdnNn9Q/mqdefault.jpg)
10 years later and still the sexiest song on youtube.
100%
Damn scary to think how much time has passed
15 years and counting
I come back to this performance every month for the last 13 years.
Hard to believe it’s been that long and still coming back since that first play that many years ago.
My first visit, for sure not my last!
I love gigs where you can get so close and lean on the stage lights. Keep your stadium shows and your armies of security; this is how it should be right here.
The Roxy in Hollywood. Close, intimate, and hot as hell. Worth it though. Everyone played here.
Fucking Jack lol
Look no further. You found the best version. It's amazing how many of Jack White's songs are best done live.
for real. was always meh about Level till this: ua-cam.com/video/1Vjn4GSYyhk/v-deo.html
@@darkassjack oh yeah, the Raconteurs. That combination was so fucking good.
Agree. good for Chilling
so true
Adore 💜
Jack broke a string near the end and still played perfectly... That's a sign of pure awesome.
Nick Holley he breaks strings all the time, I guess he just kinda gets used to it.
Fucker plucks with nickels or something
you should see bb king restringing his guitar while on stage, in the middle of a song
@@InnerDness his E broke cause his strap fell off mid solo and when he threw it back over his shoulder it snapped. His guitar was fighting him that entire performance lol
@@_dmfd According to his interviews, he absolutely loves those difficulties and challenging nuances. In fact, he goes out of his way to create them each show.
you should see some of seasick steve performances :D
I'm convinced that this video should be R-rated
I’m a full grown man and this song brings tears to my eyes.. I don’t even know why.. it just rocks me to my core. Something fuckin beautiful about it. Would love to hear more of this style. Nothing more to say than awesome!
If it doesn't make you get goosebumps and teary eyes, then you aren't alive.
I got a young bass player that wants to do stuff like this in a band. But me at 64 jumping and screaming is out of the question.
@@fukhue8226 maybe try.. lol
I'm almost 44 and I really do understand. Play both bass and guitar, bc of Jack.
If you're looking for something goosebumps wise there are two other songs that do this for me. Nick Cave, this gets me every fucking time>> /watch?v=KCvgkDjUR24 and Brutus - /watch?v=hEdmzn41tTU&list=FLtUkPNMijjVsYjwlAR5UWzQ&index=6 I hope you enjoy them my friend.

That microphone needs the morning after pill
Probably a course of antibiotics too just to be sure.
Damn😂 I thought basically the same thang.
Lol

I'd take one Jack White over a thousand Bill Gates or w/e corporate shlubs that one invisi god could throw out. Jus' sayin'...
Erin Brown and I'm drunk and going to bed… I apologize for the rambling...
he is. and despite his acclaim and recognition,i still feel he is underappreciated. he will be in the same league as Hendrix one day. I just hope he doesn't go out prematurely.
Only Detroit produces this kind of talent. Best in rock and roll.👍
This is probably my 5,000th time watching this video
This is soul music
its a cheap metaphor about a well lubricated pussy you fucking moron
@@respawnicon aggressive
I realize I'm kinda randomly asking but do anyone know a good place to watch new tv shows online?
Wasn't expecting to find you here Canadian prepper
Well, yeah. It's directly lifted from African-American blues music.
That was one of the sexiest things I've ever seen.
120%
yep, the performance doesnt just fit the songs theme, it´s obviously real
The distortion of the guitar coupled with the melodic part and then keyboards to top it off on this is absolutely the BEST!
I could watch this 1000 times and still want to watch it again. It's that good.
Awesome, simply awesome. THIS is pure rock music, no homogenization, just gritty, sweaty energy. If I close my eyes I could be sitting in my bedroom in the 70's listening to one of my albums on my quadraphonic stereo system. I haven't liked a new band this much in ages.
why is everything Jack White touches so freaking good?
Alison Mosshart is hands down one of the best frontmen ever, you can't help but be memerized by her
Just saw the kills 2 weeks ago and this statement still rings true
God's I love this cut...Only thing..max volume not max enough
there are moments in music when you just arnt listening to someones voice and instrument, but you can actually hear their soul speaking out. This is one of the moments
leading to glorious eargasms
The fact that this doesn't have over 1,000,000 views astounds me... Its the best blues rock I've heard in a long time.
Sorry to blow up UA-cam but this is, by far, one of the greatest rock songs ever.
This is one of the coolest songs I've heard in a long time. There is such heart in this.
Can we talk about LJ on drums?? He's totally dominating that set!
yeeeees he killed it!!! Extremely talented
I like Jack Lawrence cause of his hidden talent. and his glasses. I have glasses.
YESS!! LOVE L.J!!
hes playing some super basic shit id be surprised given his bass skills if he couldnt play something like this
Yeah he’s tapping them pretty good!
The absolute embodiment of passion.
ive watched this vid some many times and i cann always feel extremly warm
This song is high up there together with the best stuff that Jack White has ever played. Perhaps one of his TOP 5 songs?
What performances would you put higher?
This live performance, Queen during Live Aid and Prince performing Purple Rain live at the Syracuse in ’85, Marks a couple of the best live rock performances i’ve ever seen, just a whole different level of musical mastery.
They were melting for each other. ❤️
Listening to this over and over on Christmas Day.
One of the most amazing songs ever. Up there with Stairway and Comfortably Numb imo...
Without a doubt
This video is the proof that there is still a living legend walking the stage!
Never stop playing dude.
This crowd has no fucking idea the greatness and raw emotion they are witnessing. Tis sad. Tis sad. Two beautiful souls adjoined for that one.
They probably do they are just in awe of it lol
***** lmao...you know what that is way more likely
My Lord, I love this Man, Major talent & always re-inventing himself. A true Legend.
I still can't get over how amazing this is.
THIS is music. All of the passion and emotion captured in 7:38 of raunchy blues. Shits inspiring man
Watching this over and over again has helped me improve on my guitar playing. I've learned key just by listening to this over and over again
I'm just blown away
this is definitely the best live performance video i have ever seen.
Sometimes I literally sing the chorus of this song when I'm about to drink water.
now you make me sing this before i drink water :)
hahaha you're welcome ;D
kkkkkkkkkkkkkk laughed for real
I laughed, too; now I hope I don't end up doing the same. But probably will...
I think about it before I jack off into the water when someone ask me for a cup of water at my house, and then I laugh my ass off. Watching some one choke on unexpected jizz is the best!
Jack is arguably the best modern day guitarist.
Him and the dudes who were in Mars Volta I’d agree
ehhhh, Todd Mohr holds his own dominion on this....would give anything to see the day a collaboration happens
More Dead Weather please. Jack is a champ and Aliison is too hot. Superband of our time.
He's so dreamy 😍
I have never, nor will I ever again, seen a band put on the show they did when I saw them. Absolutely the best show I'll ever see.
Best live performance, best video on youtube, best solo
Another masterpiece from JW. He will go down as a historic piece of guitatr history. I am 44 and have seen some great ones in my time , and he is right up there.
How can you not want to jump his bones while singing an incredible song together.
oh my God! Where have you people been?? I used to watch this daily until I bought it... You all came to your senses..lol! I'm just playing, I couldn't live without ALL of these musicians music! Mad love for Jack White, Q.O.T.S.Age, The Greenhornes & The Kills!!! LOVE YOU ALL ;)

Been listening to this for the whole evening now, now that's some fucking music.
Jack is so imperfectly perfect 🔥
I wish this version was on spotify... nothing against the album version but this is on a whole other level.
Simply frenetic, What a passion he has in this powerful and deep song... Amazing Jack!
Always make me happy. The song with rolling stones smile on his face
Every time,,,every time,,,this tuned takes your vibration to a whole other place,,,fuckin beautiful man,,,fuckin beautiful
This is beautiful stuff. It makes me miss doing drugs, but that's another sort of blues.
Love this song. It’s like an untapped emotion….Something you keep hidden.
The Most amazing Thing with JW is the fact that every single time you ear a riff from this guy and go look for it somewhere its brand new. And every time you ear such beautiful lyrics and go look for them we find out they are just from his head. Our true Dylan, without the anti-hero bull...
For me, the best thing jack white has been involved in other than the white stripes. So many incredible musicians on one stage.
The way he plays on his guitar, the way they look at each other.. Wow.
I love music so fucking much I hear it and feel it differently then most people. in the album version of this song if you listen close you can hear crickets chirpping in the back ground. that's pure genius to incorporate the sound of a bug into the music. JACK WHITE, YOU ARE A MUSIC GENIUS.
Alison looks like she has a fun job, she just gets to feel the music for so much of the song
please jack, press this live performance to a 7 inch or something i need this !!
I can't imagine this in color. It just wouldn't be the same.
Jack isn't even the guitarist for this band but he still managed to break a guitar string!
Bratushka,I'm half russian,half bulgarian and trust me I've been there but there are people who appreciate good music.Just gotta find them.
I dont want to think this was actually colorful
what a great thought on the performance! absolutely love it!
Blues this good is only visible in black and white, color isn't visible in this key and wavelength. Going from Mach, to warp and light speed, hyperspace, then to plaid, you cross back over to black and white and the monochromatic spectrum.

I was there and my memories are pretty monotone, with a slight blue tinge. Great show.
This is everything…. I just keep coming back throughout the years. 🔥🔥 I need a smoke. 😂
Jack is a beast on the guitar! And he looks so good it could kill a woman.
This is fantastic. Love the raw emotion.
reminds me of where did you sleep last night by lead belly
+Screech891 Now that you say that, I can't stop thinking of the similarities... they're must have been some influence there!
Wouldn't be surprised, Jack loves lead belly
In the pines. Look for version by Fantastic Negrito. Awesome
the songs share the same theme...
Great performance left me with chill bumps and a droped jaw a little turned on too!

This makes me think of the Middle Passage. Dark, soul-wrenching, inescapable. Tough.
Este muchacho se puede escuchar, y escuchar , y escuchar...todas sus bandas son un placer. Gracias Jack
Le daría un like, pero ya tiene, tres.
Wow , been a while I didn't listen to something this good! I love when he starts playing solos and I'm like ''Awwwwwww Yeahhhhhhh'' these guys know about good music
It's the best version of this song!!
I just discovered this. It changed my life, this is like pure awesome !
Fantastic!!!
They were revelling in the moment, man. You don't need to headbang to enjoy a song like this.
what a thing to spend time on.
So cool! One of the best ones, definitely!

good answer
Thats reality right there you know it all's 🎉
Makes me think of the Doors, great sound
Yes, but they're better than The Doors.
artsloverforever WUT?!?! they're good.. but far away from The Doors D:
artsloverforever Better then the doors ? Have you heard more then 2 songs by the doors i doubt it ha
No opinions on the internet! ;-)
artsloverforever I love TDW myself, but I think The Doors are far more superior.
The Intro is like a dark blues nigthmare. I really gets you in the mood.
Jack White kills it on that guitar!
Never trust a slow, mellow rock band. They are getting ready to punch you in the mouth.
Lol! Exactly! Love it! :DDD
Lol....I like it. I honestly don't own any of their music, so I don't mean to offend their true fans. You demonstrate your maturity, because most people rip me a new a-hole for the slightest difference in interpretation.
Damn that was a good punch!
the calm before the storm
Solar Sailor shut up
I freaking love it
Man, just kiss already.
rodrigo pez Just BANG already. Lol.
I'm sayin
Haha I N T I M A T E
They did if you believe what you read
I mean, they just fucked. She had a post-coital cigarette.
I got goosebumps 3 fucking times while watching this.
HOLY Moly... how hot is it there? They are all dripping sweat.

Daniel PIRX Kusak cool! Thanks for sharing. Jack definitely puts all of his energy on stage..I've been to his show before. He's amazing.
if you aint dripping in sweat by the end of your set i mean that weird 105 degree roofing sweat then your set sucked
B there just wasn't enough water
Stage lights are ridiculously hot...if the people responsible for them don’t know what they are doing and hang them too close or use too many, they can literally blister your skin by the end of a 2hr set.
what an amzing performance holy crap
