The Raconteurs Perform 'Help Me Stranger'

Dean Fertita is the most underrated musician in modern rock 'n' roll. What a guitar player, what a keyboarder.

[@deannamorgan3652]

It’s a shame that Jack plays drums in Dead Weather and people still give him the credit for the guitar work that Dean does. I have almost all of Dean’s albums. I’m sure he’s worked on something I don’t know about though.

[@TokyoBlue587]

Jack is finally back where he belongs, with the Raconteurs! One of my favorite groups and I'm definitely getting the new album!

[@cvandy2252]

Seriously, of all the great things Jack White has given us, the Raconteurs are by far my favorite band he's played in.

[@christiangisborne9011]

this song is all about what Jack thrives on. Simplicity. It’s a chord progression that happens in basically 1/4 of all music but he still makes it look good. With Dean Fertita of QOTSA playing lead and him and Brendon dueling Acoustic guitar and keeler slow 16ths meeting LJ’s Taurus Moog Bass. It all comes together beautifully. And when the chorus hits... it’s the most badass moment in music of the year 😎

[@infamousguitarist7898]

I thought it was fantastic!!! Jack does no wrong!

[@ZaidenKobe]

Infamous Guitarist he actually only wrote the chorus. Jack wrote the song and thought of it as a b side or throwaway until Brendan put the chorus on it and fell in love with it and considers it his favorite song on the album

In American English it's often pronunced like "Rack" but in French it is more like "Rock". For the one person reading this who doesn't know, a raconteur is a highly skilled storyteller-- someone who elevates interesting or amusing anecdotes to an art form.
