“That night The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion exemplified what a concert should be and put everyone else to shame. – John Zaozirny / The Ubyssey “Exploding Blues”

“But what really got me going was when they broke it down in the middle of a song with the theremin – Judah was on bullhorn and Russell’s bass drum had a crazy beat so phat I had to rub my eyes to double-check that I wasn’t at a hip-hop joint!” – Byrce Dunn / Discorder

Footage of them performing Boogie Chillun together appeared on the Live Promo Video and they appear on stage together in the Fat Possum documentary You See Me Laughin’: The Last of The Hill County Bluesmen.

The track R.L. Got Soul from Now I Got Worry is a reference to R.L. Burnside and after his death on 1 September 2005 the Judah Bauer website featured a free downloadable mp3 of Goin’ Down South as a tribute to him.
