Roots Drummer Questlove Torn Up Over White Stripes Split -- Music Appreciation

When news of the White Stripes' demise broke, Questlove was among those troubled by the announcement -- though it had been a long time coming, given the lack of activity from the garage rock duo in recent years. Taking to his Twitter feed, the Roots' longtime drummer wrote: "well since they put it like this http://www.thirdmanrecords.com/ i can respect their parting ways. but nevertheless a heartbreaker." Questlove showed his appreciation for Jack and Meg White early on when he was recruited by Joss Stone to drum on and arrange her 2003 cover of the White Stripes classic 'Fell in Love With a Girl.'
