Release Notes:
Formed in 1991 after the demise of Jon Spencer's
seminal band Pussy Galore, the Jon Spencer Blues
Explosion has always included drummer Russell
Simins and guitar ace Judah Bauer. Taking cues from
rock, punk, R&B, garage, hardcore, and hip hop
idioms, while transcending the limitations of each,
the Blues Explosion created a new sound which
they've spent the last 16 years honing and
redefining. Their music is as deft and bold and
life-affirming as the Meters, the Magic Band, or
the Birthday Party.
Beginning in 1992, The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion
earmarked songs from their recording sessions for
their Jukebox Single Series on In The Red. The
singles, which were based on a similar series done
by rockabilly legend Charlie Feathers in the 1970s,
featured some of most incendiary, hyper-charged
tunes the band ever cut. From their spastic take on
Chain Gang's "Son Of Sam" to "Ghetto Mom" (the
final single from 2002) these seven-inch sides
always showcased the band's full-throttle punk rock
side.
Now, for the first time, all five out-of-print
singles have been collected in one place on Jukebox
Explosion, along with eight previously unheard
rarities from the band's early days that are every
bit as action-packed, frantic, and furious.
Jukebox Explosion captures one of the most
exciting, original, and influential bands to emerge
in the 1990s at the absolute peak of their powers.
If you dig rock 'n' roll music, this stuff is
absolutely essential.
