And when you consider jacks new solo album, he really moved away from that garage rock and blues sound. I'd say the music on it is pretty unique, more so than the music he made with meg.
Talking about him as a solo guitarist in a perspective of originality. Different to a group's productive output. His sound doesn't give me an impression of inimitability. He might put a spin to it, but really it isn't something unheard of. Hard rockin' out blues, not something alien to my ears. Perhaps there's something that I don't hear that others do. But hey feel free to keep us informed.

edit: Actually I don't really want to get into another discussion about Jack White. I've had enough Jack White for the day.
