Jon Spencer Blues Explosion 12/05/1993 - Norman, OK @ Rome

[@bobert6523]

Some maniac on the bus grabbed my head with both his hands and yelled "The blues is number one" in my face. So I googled that and ended up here. I now agree with that maniac.

Spencer doesn't have all the lyrics for Typecast down yet - so he name checks an old Pussy Galore song, "Sweet Little Hi-Fi". Nice. KILLER SHOW.

This was a great time for music in Norman... I lived in there for a while in the early 1990s... Loved the Deli with Stiff Richard and Ike Lamb & Space Dog... Great stuff and I miss that scene, so much great stuff... I missed this show, sadly...

This was the greatest live band of the 1990s just getting their shit together.

Brilliant performance, thanks for posting! And cool that Judah Bauer is wearing a Scientists T-shirt!

[@TheScottronica]

I talked to Judah a few years back. He is doing so much better now than he was. He says he really doesn't remember a big part of his life. He looked really good. They all did, really.

Thanks, for posting.Great footage of a great era for them. This is about the time I discovered them (Extra Width and In the Red singles), but I never saw them live back then. Amazing how they've mellowed. Judah Bauer's whole stage presence has changed a ton: more stately than delinquent, I guess.
