#JWhite6Music - The Ultimate Jack White Playlist

Ahead of the documentaty on Jack White this weekend on BBC 6 Music - Red, White and Black: The Jack White Story - Now Playing dedicated the show to one of modern music's true legends. The playlist was unsurprisingly wild, varied and well, White!

We also wrapped up what had been going on in the online world and Punktastic chose some of their current favourite tracks for us.
