reverend horton heat - ace of spades

[@blampfno]

This dude is a powerhouse. One of the most energetic performers I've ever watched. Good stuff.

[@BlueHopi144]

with the Paladins of course . Both Legends of rockabilly

[@jamesdrogers]

I was in the Hole in the Wall in Austin some time in the early 90s, and he was playing.. maybe 5 people in the audience. I was in total awe of his playing.. When his set finished, he sat down at a table next to mine, and I talked to him about his style and playing for 10-15 minutes.. Such a gracious dude.

[@tyjohnston8573]

Okay, I'm jealous. I was in college in the early 90s, saw them live in some dive bar in ... heck, I can't remember, maybe Louisville, KY? ... Anyway, to this day I still listen to a cassette I have of The Rev, my favorite song might be "The Longest Bridge in the World," though ... uh, he changed the lyrics some. ;-)

[@JJones-cl4dm]

I saw him at a dive in Austin in the late 90s but the place was packed. Small bar but standing room only

[@johnbutler5650]

The Rev did a rendition of the Johnny Quest theme/Stop that Pigeon for a collection of Saturday morning cartoon themes ( bear with me ). The beginning of “Ace of Spades” ALWAYS brings that little medley from that obscure record to mind! Amazing musician!

♡this comment

[@mikemaysmusic5519]

That was the song that let me know who Reverand was!!! Saturday Morning Cartoon Soundtrack was the title of the album i believe. Stop That Pigeon is my favorite track!! It's just 2 minutes of absolute joy!! If you aren't smiling after that, you need help lol Sublime's version of Hong Kong Fooey was a close second.

[@sped6954]

NICE!!! I love it when a musician makes a song their own but they don't stray too far from the original. I've heard some pretty awful covers of this song, but RHH did just an amazing job covering this. 👍😎👍

[@averagebodybuilder]

Now you know the origins of psycho Billy freakout

[@yucatansuckaman5726]

O shit i hear it!!!!!

[@mikecynic5167]

It's almost like the song was written for them to play.

[@ChrisLawton66]

Sounds good. Interesting choice of camera placement.

[@devilman3136]

I met him and jimbo about a decade ago at the rialto in tucson and they were both amazing

[@TheRocker27]

That was really good. Far out man. 🤘🃏🎸🥃🍺🤤👊

I remember when these guys opened for Motörhead a while back.

[@robsampson2016]

This is the real deal. They will never be another Reverend.

[@ashchaya7676]

With that intro I thought we were gonna get a different song. Ace of Spades was their most popular for a few reasons but I could think of a dozen that were better songs. Enjoyed this vid though, thanks.

[@marSLaZZ66]

Another proof that Motörhead was a Rock'n'Roll band, not a metal one ! RIP Lemmy, Philthy and Eddie ! Miss you forever ! ♠️

[@Gene-XL]

Would love to have seen the guitar playing!

[@sarahz3673]

Couldn't hear the the lyrics much but holy shit what an awesome fucking cover!

Coolness!

[@ikeyschultz4969]

On fucking point. Did Lemme justice.

Where did we hear the ace of spades for the first time?

Just wish the vocals were brought up in the mix just a little more

[@ryanmcclosky3312]

Yeah I could barely hear him

[@putkirotta]

really... =) i havent seen any video for that ;P

[@arcbc30]

When hipsters murder the greatest rock song ever written… ughh

[@orion7741]

dude... . this was a TERRIBLE cover of that song..... jeez, they completely butchered it. thats probably why Lemmy refused to do it with them. they were playing it like they were pretending to be Motorhead, instead of actually doing a cover of the song where they put their own style to it. complete failure.

[@ggmerle]

Worst mixing ever, you can't even hear him.

[@walterangelucci9039]

His voice is barely audible...

[@loringjohnson7797]

The Rev doesn't just rock. He's also a great storyteller. What an unappreciated legend.

[@puckstevo]

Discovered rev by a beavis n butthead vid. Dayum those two dummies had that #$it going on

[@TheBigMclargehuge]

We appreciate him just fine

[@charlescoleman4017]

By most, yes. But I've been appreciating him since the early 1990's. Solid Gold!

[@ghastedx4039]

Just saw him play at Long Beach last weekend and he still rips. Talked to him after the show and he was incredibly kind. When he played the Ace of Spades a room full of forty year olds broke into a mosh and it was something special. 10/10 go see him if you can

[@PACKERMAN2077]

I'm torn between the flaming jungles of Nam' in the 60's... Rolling monster tubes on the beaches of Hawaii in the 70's... bombing downhill on a skateboard in the 80's... And toppling the Soviet Union in the 90's off one song.

[@zetasong]

Dec 2 2022, Williwaw Social, Anchorage AK...so very stoked

[@shepmathe]

Damn...I live in Long Beach n missed that show. Didn't even hear about it. Thanks for letting me know how I messed up. Looking to see him in Idaho cooming up where my sis lives. A visit n a show. Yeah!

If the mixer would turn up the mic volume, the Rev wouldn't have to shove it up his nose to be heard! LOL Na, but seriously, that's a damn good tribute to The Great Lemmy. Well done Reverend.

[@RandallHeath1121]

Spot on. The mic level was fine during his introduction - what happened? They picked up the audience better than the Rev!

[@Ryan-tt1km]

huge Motörhead fan here and I respect this greatly. Dude nailed that solo and did Fast Eddie justice too

[@iceneweb]

So cool that he played Fast Eddie Clarke's original solo on this. Respect!

Likewise. Such a badass, and never acts the "badass".

[@jamescouillard8068]

It took me more than 25 yrs to meet him. What a nice guy. A true legend

[@OldSkoolF]

I've met Jimbo a dozen times at the Tralf in Buffalo but only met Jim twice. Mike from Agent Orange was super cool. Necromantix was super cool and the 5,6,7,8's hung out with us in the crowd after their set... Never had so much fun than at Rev's shows..

[@ATK10155]

God this was the perfect cover. I had no idea Ace Of Spades could somehow sound better in Rev's style.

[@CorePathway]

Zero vocals in the mix 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@apancher]

It doesn't.

[@benmayhew373]

I saw them open up for Motorhead along with Nashville Pussy in Toronto at a fairly small venue and it's one of the greatest memories of my life. 🥃🍻🇨🇦🤘

The Ace of Psychobilly: Jim Heath🔥👍

[@brianbirc]

I met Lemmy ang spoke with him for an hour at a topless bar near The Celebrity Theater in Anaslime CA I recomended backstage when he said There must be someplace around here better than this going on. I saw th 14 or so others shrug their shoulders and stepped over to him and recomended Fritz 2 he said Soubds Good Lets Go. We drank a few bourbon and Cokes. Not Jack and Coke I asked. No Jacks whiskey Bourbonhe said. Jack and Coke is a drink I like and learned later in places he went they noe calll a Jack and Coke A LEMMY . He was a great man and musician who loved his fans for keeping him doing what he loved and did untill the end. RIP IAN FRASER ! I believe he is in the better place !

[@michaelmurray8295]

First time I saw the Rev was opening for the Ramones in ‘87. Didn’t care for it. Now I’ve seen them more than any other band. Older and wiser. Saw them with Motörhead as a double bill once. Fantastic!

[@kentholle2166]

There’s a local band near me that played one of the worst and one of the best shows I’ve seen. Just different nights (and different levels of alcohol consumption.)

[@priscillacoopermusic5896]

My husband and I are sitting here watching the episode of Bitchin' Rides you are on. You mentioned your band, so I looked you up. And here I am rockin' out with you to one of my favorite classics! Great cover!! 😎👊

[@Sarah-pq8kj]

I've seen them live so many times. Was front row being crushed into a chain link fence at the last Fry Street fair in Denton,TX. So much fun!

[@russellfippino2590]

Used to work at a rehearsal studio , met Jim and Jimbo and Scott, three nicest and genuine musicians and people I ever met 👍

[@kevinlane7555]

.I would much rather hear a rockabilly band do a metal cover, or a metal band do a rockabilly cover.....What's special about a metal band doing another metal song?....BTW....that drummer is solid

[@Thunderchief-rt3gt]

These guys should do a cover of "Dance" by Motorhead (from Ace of Spades album). It really fits the Rockabilly/swing sound style.

[@oaklandfan5262]

Seeing them play Ace of Spades at the Ace of Spades was a great song to send everyone packing. Always a great show and never disappointed with RHH

[@uzumaki6759]

It's a..... It's a..... It's a Ace of freak out!!!!!! 😭 😭

[@glmoore001]

The cameraman must have had his head up his butt, back it up so we can see him play!

[@NobodyCaresALot]

Met these boys at a signing a few years ago. Rev and Jimbo were class acts and spent time with everyone, Churilla looked at the pickguard I brought to have the guys sign and said, "I play drums, are you sure you want me to sign this". I looked at him, a bit off guard and said, "you are in the band aren't you? I hope you do sign it". I've seen them many times before and since then but I love the honest and down to Earth way these guys are. Genuine people playing great music. I'll never sell it. It's on my daily player guitar and some of the signatures have worn off a little bit, but it's imbued with greatness and it makes me play better because of these dudes and thinking of that solid, genuine interaction. Truly an interesting, fun and inspiring group.

[@bohs1984]

I'm not a conspiracy guy or anything but have you ever seen the Rev. and James Hetfield in the same place at the same time?????\

Nor have I seen The Rev with Jim Bakker!

It’s a great cover of a great song, but seriously what TF is this cameraman doing with the zoom on one dude for the entire song! It would be nice to see that guitar playing, that bass slappin’, those rockin’ drums! Show the whole band dude!
