Jack White and Pete Townsend

What's the coolest thing about being a musician? Hanging with your heroes of course.

Picked up the White Stripes excellent new album ICKY THUMP, saw them at Irving Plaza last week and have been on a big kick. While surfing YouTube for clips however I came across this which looks like it was from the Raconteurs tour last year, and is defintiely one of the coolest things I've seen in a while.

Peter, Bjorn & John

Great tune here. The hook is instant, throw it on at your next party and you'll see. Looks like these guys are Swedes which is A-OK in my book too.

Wilson Pickett and Duane Allman

iPod shuffling this morning, on came the incredible cover of "Hey Jude" by Wilson Pickett featuring Duane Allman on guitar. Had to play this a few more times and then found this sweet video montage. Apparently this was the song that Eric Clapton heard which made him immediately seek out Duane, who was only 22 at the time this track was recorded in 1969. We all know what happened next.
