Bellbottoms by The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion appears on the ‘Foo.Fm’ compilation CD selected by Dave Grohl and Nate Mandel included with the May 2026 issue of Mojo Magazine.

BELLBOTTOMS

Feral rock’n’roll from Spencer and co’s 1994 LP, Orange. In 2013, Grohl told NME how he struggled to listen to music after Kurt Cobain’s death: “Anything melancholy just made me so depressed.” But Orange helped him re-engage with rock: “That was a great record.”

Posted on February 28, 2026 by admin

Cat Power recently posted a video of Nothing Compares 2 U from First Avenue & 7th St Entry, Minneapolis, MN, US (26 February 26, 2026).

nb. Judah Bauer performed on ‘Nothing Compares 2 U’, it’s not known if he performed for the whole set but the review on wheartm.com would suggest he did as they state “Cat Power appeared with a full band (a sextet: vocals, guitar, guitar, stand up & electric bass, keyboards, and drums)”.

“Dear reader, when I say that backing band was tight, I am not even remotely doing them justice. It was critical to the success of the evening and kudos to Cat Power for assembling this powerhouse group.”

SET LIST: The Greatest / Living Proof / Lived in Bars / Could We / Empty Shell / Willie / Where Is My Love / The Moon / Islands / After It All / Hate / Love and Communication

I Don’t Blame You / Nothing Compares 2 U (Prince cover) / Try Me (James Brown & The Famous Flames cover) / Good Woman / It Wasn’t God Who Made Honky Tonk Angels (Kitty Wells cover) / Manhattan / I’ll Be Seeing You (Sammy Fain cover)
