I've got the first two docs on my PC. Still have to watch them.
So I haven't seen them yet, but when I listen to that brilliant break in "Broken Boy Soldiers", to the arrangement of Dylan's "one more cup of coffee", to the incredibly beautiful "Carolina Drama" or to 'little room', which is a joke, which is simple but which still is a real piece of music, I can't deny that White is a genius. And so versatile. I recently ran into his instrumental B-side". The Bane Rendition. Really funky.
I'm not really into White, I'm not really into White Stripes or The Dead weather. But you don't need to hear an awful lot of his music to be able hear the awesome musical inventions this man makes.
