Icky Thump ft. Alan Cross

Alan Cross joins Ryan on this episode to discuss the title track off the White Stripes' final album, 2007's Icky Thump. They discuss the state of the band following the release of the Raconteurs' debut album 'Broken boy Soldiers', and look at why 'Icky Thump' was ultimately their final album following the grueling touring schedule they took on in 2007. They also reflect on the 2008 documentary "It Might Get Loud" and share their thoughts on Third Man Records in Nashville.
