In 2004, the country legend Loretta Lynn released her comeback album Van Lear Rose. Longtime admirer Jack White produced the album, played guitar on it, and sang a duet with Lynn, but Van Lear Rose wasn’t exactly a collaborative album. Lynn wrote almost every song on the LP herself; White was there to assist. Earlier this month, Loretta Lynn passed away at the age of 90. In an Instagram tribute, Jack White wrote that Lynn was “a mother figure,” a “very good friend,” and “the greatest female singer-songwriter of the 20th century.” Last night, Jack White got a chance to pay a different kind of tribute when he covered “Van Lear Rose,” one of the Loretta Lynn songs that he produced, at an all-star CMT special.
