Adams repairs White Stripes relations

Ryan Adams, having earlier insulted Jack White, now tells the NME that the White Stripes' album Elephant may be the best rock 'n' roll record ever made.

Firstly Jack White complained when Ryan Adams changed some of the lyrics when covering one of his songs. So Adams told the NME that Jack "little girl White" was "a fucking ponce". But in his latest interview with the paper Adams seems to have softened, calling the Stripes new album 'Elephant' "maybe the best rock 'n roll record ever made." Adams says: "The White Stripes record may be the best rock 'n' roll record ever made. No shit. I am so jealous of that guy. He is so tuned in, its just incredible his gift. Motherfucker knows rock 'n' roll like sugar knows ice-cream."
