The curiosity seems to have even proven too much for White, and in 2005 he formed the Raconteurs alongside Detroit singer-songwriter Brendan Benson and the rhythm section from Cincinnati garage trio the Greenhornes. “Broken Boy Soldiers,” their 2006 debut, was pretty much what you’d expect: simple riffs and a few catchy hooks punched up by White’s flare for bombast and the duo’s effusive excitement at the novelty of it all.

Scorsese, who was born the year before Jagger and Richards and a year after Watts, made his first short film in 1963, when the Stones released their debut single.

...scientist, or a first-hand expert? If anyone has the credibility to speak on the matter, then Lauren Murphy is certainly that person. Known as just “Murph” to her teammates and coach, Murphy had an extraordinarily impressive season last year in her Crimson debut. The Sierra Madre, Calif. native captured the 2007 Ivy League Rookie of the Year award and was also named to the All-Ivy First Team. On her way to earning those accolades, Murphy first set a Crimson record for most home runs in a single season (14) and proceeded to belt...
