Whenever I hear Jack White's solos, I don't get the impression that they have a lot of feeling behind them unlike other players such as Slash or Jimmy Page.
Whenever they (or most other very talented artists) belt out a solo, it always seems to fit right in. I haven't heard all White Stripes songs, but the ones I HAVE heard have solos that sound so totally out of place.
It's definitely a matter of opinion, but also a matter of what one considers art and talent. For example, an artist can paint a simple stripe on a clear canvas. Some people might look at that stripe and go "wow, that is the most beautiful piece of art I've ever seen" while others say "...it's a f'n stripe. Paint something like the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel and then we'll talk.."
