1986: Pussy Galore – DC Space, Washington D.C., US
w/ Rick and Mike and Bill and New Carrolton

“I guess maybe the first two bands drove every body away because there weren’t many people left to hear the last band, Pussy Galore, which was unfortunate because they played a good set. Primitive rhythms, basic, repetitive guitar and bass playing and pounding in sheet metal aren’t really anything new but somehow Pussy Galore manages to get a pretty unique sound out of it all; I’ve never seen them do a set that was boring. It sure would be interesting to see one of their lyric sheets. – Elizabeth (WDC Period Vol. 1, No. 14)

1993: The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion – The Doornroosje, Nijmegen, Netherlands

1995: The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion – The Leadmill, Sheffield, UK
w/ Mule and Ketone

“On “Flavor” and “Greyhound”, the highlights of this evening, Simin’s drumming replicates perfectly the kind of arse-tube-lubing funkiness that the best hip hop deals in, the Blues Explosion blending it in not as some concession to modernity, but simply because it sounds so slamming. And the crowd get it instinctively, jumping as one with the “Go! Go! Go!”s like it’s Wu-Tang up there. What’s even better is Jon Spencer’s ability to get wet and slick down a Sunday night crowd without having to resort to the lazy guilt tactics so many performers do.” – Neil Kulkarni / NME

NME Review: Neil Kulkarni

“The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion rock magnificently, and so their more attention-grabbing aspects – the Theremin (a weird electronic instrument used in ’50s sci-fi movie soundtracks), the irony and the Trashmen vocals – are part of a pretty visionary package when they’re whopping it out. A true validation of their elevated status.” – Meany
