Sympathetic Sounds of Detroit is a compilation album of American garage rock and punk bands from Detroit, released in 2001. Put together by Jack White of the White Stripes, it featured bands such as the Von Bondies, the Dirtbombs, and the Detroit Cobras. It was recorded in the home of Jack White, and he, along with nephew and the Dirtbombs drummer Ben Blackwell can be heard singing backup on "Shaky Puddin'," a Soledad Brothers track.[1]
Jack White produced the album to preserve the work of a few bands who were a significant part of Detroit's music scene in the 1990s, but were unlikely to achieve the same level of mainstream success as the White Stripes.[2]
