Russell Simins – Tracks From The Van #31

31. Randoms – Let’s Get Rid of New York (1977)
“Let Nas and Jay Z battle it out for whose ‘New York’ or ‘Empire State of Mind’ is the gold standard for representing the greatest city on earth. This short lived LA punk band featuring X’s John Doe on bass and Screamers drummer KK Barrett just wants to do away with the Big Apple all together let alone think about it. Fast, fiery and angry, this B side of the ABCD 7 inch was the band’s only official release.”

The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion – Afro (Live)

An audience-shot video of The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion performing Afro at the Diamond Ballroom, Oklahoma City, OK, US* has been posted on youtube.com.

*unknown date. The video gives 1996 as the year but it is probably 1993 or earlier as they’re still using the ‘Punk Rock’ drumkit and all of the songs posted online from this show are from Extra Width and earlier.

Heavy Trash – Noir!

http://bronzerat.limitedrun.com/products/543157-heavy-trash-noir“Out April 6, 2015. Available for pre-order now.

This vinyl-only limited edition (2000) record from Jon Spencer‘s alter-ego, Heavy Trash, is an album of previously unreleased wig-outs, instrumentals, out-takes, and other unhinged gems recorded throughout the bands lifetime.

Jon Spencer and Matt Verta-Ray, the men known as Heavy Trash, never thought that anyone would be watching or listening, let alone recording, when they perpetrated these middle-of-the-night experiments in unchecked soul exposition and naked desire. Had they known the tape was rolling, we would never have this demented document of darkness and decay. But their demons have come to light, and you are now invited to dance through the dusky shadows of a musical group on the edge. This is pure Heavy Trash. This is Noir!”
