Jack White celebrated the release of his solo album with a career spanning live show in London last night (April 23rd).

With 'Blunderbuss' relased this week, White and his all female backing band tore through the majority of the record including a rapturous 'Sixteen Saltines' and the more sedate 'Love Interruption'.

White thanked the audience for coming to see him but kept the interraction to a minimum as he switched between making his guitar squeal on new album cuts 'Freedom At 21' and 'I'm Sakin' before flexing his bluegrass muscles on 'Hypocritical Kiss'.

The huge back catalogue at White's disposal was not ignored either with many songs from The Raconteurs, Dead Weather and White Stripes history reinvented for his new set-up.

As a result, the audience was treated to a country style 'Hotel Yorba' as well as grungy takes on The Dead Weather's 'I Cut Like A Buffalo' and 'Caroline Drama' by The Raconteurs.

The full list of White Stripes songs White played was; 'Dead Leaves and The Dirty Ground', 'Hotel Yorba', 'We're Going To Be Friends', 'My Doorbell' and 'Seven Nation Army'.
