Jon Spencer Blues Explosion live on Australian TV 1997 (Reaction)

[@chrisandangelasteffey8311]

The Blues is Number one!

[@baronesselsavonfreytag-lor1134]

This band is wild, and pretty much everything they do sounds good.

[@PedroLima-ip5zb]

The best fuckin named band, really a blues explosion

[@LoaRicardo]

Wow, first time I ever see a Jon Spencer react! That was great

[@gino88]

I can't believe someone is reacting to this. Been a favorite video for years. Kudos to whoever asked you to react to this. Teez you gotta do the Roots "Adrenaline" while reading the lyrics.

Man i saw those guys live in a tiny ass room a couple of years ago, it was super freaking hot in there, so it was like an hour of the singer just sweating and alot of spitting too on me and my friend, best moment ever.

[@Dadmasterjames]

Saw them 7-8 times. Blues Explosion 1!!!

[@PussJohnson]

If anyone deserves to be reacted to it’s Jon and his various bands! Seriously underrated performer, and he’s still killing it.

[@christophersessions3375]

This is a callback to everything Rock and Roll comes from. The Spirit taking over, the rhythm and the blues, the destruction of everything that isn't THE SPIRIT, the rejection of everything that isn't THE SPIRIT. This is taking it from blues to gospel to bebop to the who to the cramps.... YOUR REQUESTORS ARE AMBROSIA.

I have been looking for a video of this performance for a while now, thought it had disappered from KZbin. Thanks for reveiwing this, great to see this high energy performance again.

[@korybeavers6528]

Love! Love! Thank you

[@jamessmithsaltyarmy5210]

OMG I was looking for this song and found this lol... I watched it live on TV at the time :)

[@VaughnBrown1965]

these guys were great. I saw them only once but listened to them a lot. great live show!!

[@bufordteejustice1119]

I saw them open up for the beastie boys in 1996.

[@TommiBrem]

They also play a mean Beastie Boys cover. It's all connected.

[@Dadmasterjames]

Seen 7-8 times! One of my all time favorite bands.

[@TR-yi8up]

At their peak, which went on longer than most all bands, they were as good as any live band on the planet.

[@baronesselsavonfreytag-lor1134]

Oh, he's playing a theremin in Two Kindsa Love when you asked what he's doing.

[@germanfrias480]

Blues explosion/ amazing/👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

[@andersoul4810]

the blues is number one !!!!!!😂😂😂😂😂🍻🍻

[@daft4343]

How did this happen! So great live!!... Thanks for this little nugget!!

[@Dadmasterjames]

You can see them go nuts on a French TV show too on KZbin.

[@baronesselsavonfreytag-lor1134]

Your patrons have decent taste!

[@TeezMcGee]

Hell yea they do 🙌

[@baronesselsavonfreytag-lor1134]

Yessssss good one!

[@Wolfhoundfromthehighseas]

I’m noticing that It seems like sometimes the less instruments the better the beat with certain songs. This is one of them. Good stuff💙💙🙌🏼🙌🏼

[@TommiBrem]

The album they recorded with RL is "Ass pocket of whiskey".

[@Dadmasterjames]

Saw them live 7-8 times. One of my all time favorites. They went apeshit on a French TV show too. Blues Explosion #1!

[@joebrewer4529]

Cedric Burnside on tour right now and if you can find the bootlegs of RL Burnside touring with the blues explosion. At the end of the show Cedric would come out his grandson and Rob with the blues explosion. It was awesome.

[@ConnbineHarvester]

1st time I ever heard of this band, they were opening for the Beastie Boys in the RDS in Dublin in 1995. If you see them live, you will have to shout "The Blues Explosion" and "The Blues are number 1" a lot or Jon Spencer will get pissed off and may even end the gig early if the crowd aren't giving it some energy!

[@JayPhonomancer]

Man I am so jealous of that. I've never seen the JSBX and to see them back in the 90's with the Beasties is just ridiculous

[@ConnbineHarvester]

@@JayPhonomancer I'm pretty sure I saw Megadeth in the SFX the following night!

[@PalimpsestProd]

Like the band but bad quality. EDIT ohhhh, the theremin bit, now I get it.

[@bobert6523]

Show the blues explosion to anybody and they will "react"

[@larindanomikos]

Nah...the audio is just how they wanted it.

[@howkel]

The blues is number one!
