Johnny Walker: "I was playing at a lounge in Detroit
when Jack
struck up a conversation
about slide guitar. He was really pumping me for information. I could see
that he was really enthusiastic about playing blues, and he had good
taste. For many years after we would talk smack and play guitar on his
front porch. We recorded a lot of good stuff on his front porch. Jack
White is worth his weight in brilliance. He played snow shovel on the
Italy single. He had to stand 20 feet from the mic, on the sidewalk,
because the shovel was so loud. You are still able to hear his hollerin,
'In My Time of Dying' on the record. We also recorded a version of
'Little Red Rooster' on his porch complete with distant Southwest Detroit
gunfire.
Very tasteful."
