Consoler Of The Lonely - The Raconteurs [From The Basement]

[@jaywjr2456]

When a group of musicians bring the best out of each other you get stuff like this.

[@deathtrack15]

I love the way jack just bursts into the verse

[@afsharnaseem3582]

So aggressive and emotional with just the right flair!

[@blica1]

patrick keeler's probably the only drummer in rock right now who's achieved that bonham sound and feel to a very close degree..great stuff !

[@CAB2087]

False

[@radicals13]

Well add more to the conversation than that, man.

[@Bobstunes]

I saw him live twice last tour. Patrick Fuckin Keeler is one of the best drummers I have ever seen live. Dam can the man hit the skins like some of the best ever in drumming. The Racounters are bad to the bone. They take Jack to the next level shit.

[@opppopp2322]

jon theodore my mane

[@TheRHSman]

Jon is his own kind of awesome. Patrick is old school bombastic. I love both.

[@wezzlyn]

Man, I miss this band

[@TaffyRaphie]

I want to listen to that little drum beat at 0:06 all day. God damn it Patrick, stop blowing my mind.

[@BakedBuddy]

Why I gotta be a decade late to the party 💀💀💀

[@guiandre9347]

Dude,fr.

[@johnmonahan6647]

Damn that's awesome. Flat out rockin' to the nth power!

[@jameshowe7924]

Fin great song!!! The lady ♥️ is just WOW 👌 👏 😍

[@donuteyes]

can you imagine how big this would've been had it been released in 1975?!

[@calvinbutler1919]

They would've either loved it or hated it...but I'm betting they would've loved it.

[@nickburleson9555]

I suggest you go back and take a look at frank Zappa. Willie the pimp is where I'd start or 2+2 by bob seger.

[@nickburleson9555]

@@PMurray2694 well I only know those from your mom's collection. We listen to Willie the pimp while I fucked her. By the way tell her I said she uses to much teeth.

[@hughstark4882]

@@nickburleson9555 the 2+2=? Riff is rlly similar to jacks riff wtf 😱

[@danielburgosruiz2663]

NO

[@peachy3143]

All these years and this is still fucking phenomenal

[@MrSmithct4]

This version kicks so much ass to this day, goddam

[@RockandRoll2525]

3:40 is amazing. Looking how he just flies off the screen, amazing performer.

[@lesliecox4966]

This song is totally BAD ASS!!!!

[@cameronasi93]

What drumming, just flawless in every song

[@mygoandkeen]

Quite possibly one the greatest Rock and Roll bands this generation has ever seen..

[@SteelEagle9000]

just gotta love Brendan's geography teacher 'stache

[@jenniferreneemorgan3311]

In agreement;-)

[@sunshineharris8872]

Love these guys an jack white is my all time favorite man

[@Machine3rteen]

love how jack's really into the music and puts on a good performance. But it makes me chuckle a bit in this video when at about 3:40 he just jets right off screen like his guitar just took him for ride. lol!

[@RockandRoll2525]

I love how Jack's voice is just fucking insane.

[@BrianCarnevaleB26]

The lonely cannot be consoled. Only they can change there own narrative It’s on them--------in full Ya! ☝️🤗🍿🍿🐕🛵🛵💵

[@BrianCarnevaleB26]

Shades of rage against the machine

[@3pupsters]

Jack is the first original music in 40-ff'n years . . . this boy kicks multiple ass, no matter if White Strips, Death Weather or Raconteurs

[@AgentJay1019]

indeed there is....love the stutter-guitar-effect right there too. so innovative Jack is.

[@sovathaing7130]

Génial !

[@katherinetutschek4757]

Wow, incredible song

[@erictranvouez8592]

Propre&sale à la fois: a miracle! So good!

[@Ertimeotkhedi]

FANTASTIC I love this song :)

[@Blooze_hound]

Reasons why this video is sooooo amazing. 0:07 LJ's Rick, 0:27 therein action, 1:00 Patrick's drum beat intro, 1:19 Brenden and Dean vocal, 1:56 Jack's entrance, 2:23 "Sympathy" to Jack head bang, 2:50 Pat and LJ shot, 3:12 harmonies, 3:18 OH ITS ON NOW! to Jack-o-spin, 3:31 Brenden and Jack solo epicness! 3:43 BASS SOLO!, Not to mention how amazing the song is.

[@motospey2557]

Sooo good !!!

[@alexabelmusic]

1:56 - 2:31 best moment in musical history

[@genocide420]

Carolina Drama was part of this but you can't find it on youtube anymore, probably cause it's the best performance of it ever. Just google "raconteurs carolina drama live from the basement" and you can watch it in all it's glory on vimeo.

[@MatthewGamonal]

He puts so much feeling into it. i love it.

[@jseebold100]

Love this!!! :D

[@soy_mateo2]

ooooooohhhhhh amazing! its the first time i heard them there are like AMAZING! i just felt in love with this band!

[@BADFISH417]

love this video!! awesome tunes!!!!!!!! jam out!!!

[@tezaly]

i love this video. jammin in my living room!

[@jimi1180]

Agreed. He knows his shit. And he isn't cocky about it. The dude is the coolest guy ever.

[@maajc]

@blackflag277 thank you you've solved a big mystery to me!!!!I couldn't figure out what it was haha...I gotta get one of those!thanks again

[@robertmorris7576]

Fukin awesome!!!!

[@bashfullfill7423]

This song is amazing.

[@pepe7drum]

man some people just cant enjoy music neither to watch other people having success, both musicians Jack and Dave are fucking awesome!! it would be lovely to watch them both to do something

[@TheFuzzHeadKing]

PURE ROCK!!!!

[@BADFISH417]

fav song by them yet..

[@kuldar79]

Fantastici!!!

[@OhYeah729]

I just love the Patrick Keeler style of drumming... delicate but deadly!

[@williamoliveira1409]

jesus what a lame comparison! Patrick is a shit drummer

[@otporan]

this tune is just sick..

[@AndyDyer1]

It's simple. The White Stripes will always be the best 2 person band. Period. The Raconteurs are probably the best 5 person band going right now.

[@organizm420]

gob, i love this band

[@jacobcruzer22]

@wszystk0zajete hip gig seat huh.. pretty rad man, thanks! ive been wondering forever!

[@laos271]

LOVE it

[@ImportanceOfWhatever]

love it!

[@madl55]

i luv that little spin jack does at 3:23 this was really good.

[@anonymousbrunette]

Wonderful series of uploads, thanks. Might be LJ on back-up vox during the intro. I think its Dean Fertita on keys - does backup (falsetto) for the Carolina Drama clip.

[@0Bios0]

preachin his heart out to us!

[@thelys13]

@ryanfonts I noticed that when I saw him play with The Greenhornes opening for The White Stripes in like 2005.

[@higgyfoo]

my new favourite song!!!

[@faltat2]

there should be a dvd "The Raconteurs Live from The Basement"

[@thehulk525]

This song had the capability of being the rock anthem of this decade. I don't understand.. Why wasn't this released as a single?

[@MillerTimeMonkey]

AHHH!! AWSOME!!!!

[@maryfreebed9886]

The first time I saw Jack White was in "Shine a Light," and my first thought was that Mick Jagger had brought his kid onstage to sing and play with him, and that he was not bad at all.

[@PlaygroundPolitician]

before it begins, favorited.

[@bobkat1959]

Damn that is freakin tight!

[@jimi1180]

Jamming to this song is fucking awesome

[@petethegreekre]

I'm in shock!

[@seanybooboo]

@deathtrack15 yeah, it really makes the song. I'm glad it was just that one verse, they didn't try to over do it. Keeps us wanting to hear it over and over again.

[@mbareCT666]

this tune goes directly into my "St AndreasV Playlist"

[@dubnessIII]

@MultiQuinnifer It's a Custom Gretsch Triple Jet...they renamed it Triple Jet III after Jack had it modified.

[@CalebHotchkiss]

You see this as classic rock on steroids? I can see that. It's fun to imagine songs out of context like that. Sometimes I imagine what it would seem like if a song was released by a different artist. It changes the context in a way that I think influences the perception of the song. Raconteurs live = rock! I know that's true at least.

[@TySnouffer]

Man, I need some new Raconteurs music now!

[@rpbmpn]

Comically good at two minutes when Jack comes in screaming like a maniac.

[@ActionPacked94]

We need rock again

[@vladimirp93]

Buen video.. buena musica

[@racecarrr]

these guys have really good timing.

[@THANEWTRIBE]

The base player, very underrated

[@avedic]

mindblowing

[@ThePauly1]

Farout Jacks screaming vocals at 1:58 are awesome!!

[@ohheyynina]

I'm sorry, this whole performance is sex to the tenth degree. Fantastic.

[@antruirami]

Absolutamente acojonante, Rock sin colorantes ni conservantes, puro y duro

[@Chrisayyt]

Awesome

[@jonasdrema]

Oh my god. That's the basement of my dreams.

[@theverybigapple]

Jack's part in the middle is the best part. It fucking rocks!

[@Kmusic1294]

@RedRainIII Perfect set up...

[@lollo1991]

@klrc0 no, it's a custom guitar by a Seattle luthier named Randy Parson

[@maajc]

@Timeconsumer9 it's not a pedal it's a little copper plate that disconnects the guitar signal when he makes a contact with it..he also has one for the mic

[@dialaname]

@dogwater2742 Gretsch custom triple jet, its not made by gretsch really. But by a luthier randy parsons. Its got cow skull insides, a solid copper top and the middle pickup is really an MXR booster pedal.

[@ThePauly1]

from 1:13 Jack is just having the time of his life in his own head-space. :D

[@rock2dream]

RACONTEURS!! COME BACK!!

[@Fitzcarraldo1510]

Fuck... that was a sick performance :D Love it !!!

[@canturgan]

Great.

[@Frankincensedjb123]

How many bands put the ending at the beginning. Genius.

[@karmicdirt]

Ahh you may be right. Either way i don't think it's just the big muff, I think he's running a boost into it, he used to run an MXR Micro Amp into the big muff a while back, dunno if he's still using that as a boost though.

[@TheMrTuck]

proper music!! i agree, jack whites style is awesome!

[@samantonio1357]

sweet, he's using a zvex probe pedal. those things look so awesome.

[@yennapreeti]

they r the best\

[@georgiabowden1561]

Jack is just so wow

[@ThePatrickshumack]

@MrThepainters the white stripes were very good, but if you're a fan of alternative rock, the raconteurs are where it's at. much more rocking.

[@otporan]

@deathtrack15 totaly man... awesome

[@byZekeguitar]

@OkanaganTreeCare I agree that the white stripes is awesome dont get me wrong, but i like the way jack white sounds with bass behind him, you know what i mean?

[@BassXTwo]

its huge now!

[@brewstercraven]

its like sort of half a thermin. cutting out the bit where you can change the note and leaving the bit which changes the attack. matt bellamy had one on his black manson.

[@mance02]

@RedRainIII good eyes/ears dude!

[@jackoo666]

damn...jack is the man.

[@BADFISH417]

rock out!!!
