Acoustic Recordings 1998-2016 2 LP

Jack White Acoustic Recordings 1998-2016 collects 26 acoustic songs from throughout Whites wide-ranging musical career, spanning album tracks, B-sides, remixes, alternate versions, and previously unreleased tracks. The album, arranged in chronological order, includes acoustic songs made famous by The White Stripes, beginning with Sugar Never Tasted So Good (originally found on The White Stripes second-ever 7-inch single) and then lighting upon favorites like Apple Blossom and Im Bound To Pack It Up (remixed here from the original recordings on 2000s De Stijl), Hotel Yorba and Were Going To Be Friends (from 2001s White Blood Cells), Youve Got Her In Your Pocket and Well Its True That We Love One Another (from 2003s GRAMMY Award-winning Elephant), Forever For Her (Is Over For Me), White Moon and As Ugly As I Seem (from 2005s Get Behind Me Satan) Effect & Cause (from 2007s Icky Thump), and the Beck-produced Honey, We Cant Afford To Look This Cheap, first found on the B-side to The White Stripes final single, 2007s Conquest.

City Lights (below) was written for The White Stripes Get Behind Me Satan but then forgotten until White revisited the 2005 album for Third Mans Record Store Day 2015 vinyl reissue and finished the recording in 2016. The track is the first new, worldwide commercially released White Stripes song since 2008.
