{"product_id":"the-white-stripes-greatest-hits-cd","title":"The White Stripes Greatest Hits: CD","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn 1997 a brother and sister climbed into the third floor attic of their Southwest Detroit family homestead and bashed out a primitive cover of David Bowie’s “Moonage Daydream.” In an alternate reality, it’s all they ever do musically. The brother leads a spartan life as a dutiful upholsterer and the sister finishes culinary school and continues to make heartwarming food.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003eBut that doesn’t happen. Something sparks in both of them. They take their simple guitar-drums-voice approach to a local open mic night on Bastille Day. The performance was just good enough to keep them going. In what feels like a whirlwind, they record and release two 7-inch singles for a local indie label. A not-so-local indie offers to put out a full length album.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThey start touring. Another album. More touring. Another album. Folks REALLY start to pay attention. CRAZY touring. More albums, accolades, wildest dream after wildest dream coming true. “World-renowned” becomes an appropriate descriptor as does “long-building overnight sensation.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt is with extreme reverence that we present to you The White Stripes Greatest Hits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe first-ever official anthology of recordings from the iconic rock duo, Jack and Meg White, is an essential career-spanning collection highlighting 26 previously released songs. From late Nineties flashes of brilliance through early 2000s underground anthems, masterful MTV Moon Man moments, Grammy-grabbing greatness, and worldwide stadium chants, the songs here are as wide-ranging as you can imagine. In an era of streaming where the idea of a “Greatest Hits” album may seem irrelevant – that an act’s most streamed songs are considered their de facto “hits” – we wholeheartedly believe that great bands deserve “Greatest Hits” and that a large part of Third Man Records’ and The White Stripes’ successes have been built on zigging when the rest of the music business is zagging. Thus, for a great band with great fans, a greatest hits compilation for The White Stripes is not only appropriate, but absolutely necessary.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Recordstore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49978934821106,"sku":"19439822392","price":3.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0850\/1621\/5794\/files\/SharedImage-110141.jpg?v=1787665177","url":"https:\/\/recordstero.shop\/products\/the-white-stripes-greatest-hits-cd","provider":"recordstero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
