Daniele Luppi & Danger Mouse - "Rome"
with Norah Jones and Jack White.
"American producer Danger Mouse and the Italian film composer Daniele Luppi released in 2011 a spaghetti western-inspired album titled Rome with vocals by Jack White and Norah Jones. It was recorded during sporadic sessions over a five-year period at Rome’s Forum Studios and was inspired by the film soundtrack work of Ennio Morricone. The instrumentation was done mainly by musicians who played on the original Ennio Morricone scores."
It's already amazing!
The instrumental parts are indeed very Morricone-ish. Love "The Rose with the Broken Neck" with Jack White on vocals. Less interested in Norah Jones' "Black"

Jack White - "Love Is Blindness"
Haven't heard this song in quite some time. Jack White's version is good, his screaming and high voice fits the craziness.

It Might Get Loud
Watched "It Might Get Loud", a documentary about Jimmy Page, the Edge and Jack White. The latter is a bit of an arrogant twat at times, particularly because the other two are so humble, but a fun watch nonetheless.
They showed the house where U2 recorded "War" and the mansion where Led Zeppelin recorded "Stairway to Heaven". They put the drums in the hall, and Roger Waters was high up, at the end of the stairs, playing. It's the song for which Jimmy Page had to "invent" the double-guitar, because he couldn't switch so quickly.
Wonderful moment when Jimmy Page started to play, and the other two just watched in complete awe.
When Jimmy Page put on a vinyl of a very old song ("Rumble"?) he couldn't stop grinning. After hearing it probably a thousand times, he still immensily enjoyed it.
Not the greatest documentary ever, but a fun watch, and one of this films that make you yearn to go away and do something actually creative.
