The Man Who Lives for Love

Jon Spencer, heart-attack front man of the Blues Explosion and shudder-and-shake specialist of rockabilly wildmen Heavy Trash, takes on Luther and Cody Dickinson, masterminds of the North Mississippi All-Stars, in a no-holds-barred Mississippi Mud Fight, and the result is a rock'n'roll rumble and a darker side of soul!!! "I was a little messed up in the head anyway," confesses Spencer, telling the tale of this backwoods electric throw-down, recorded with producer, wizard, and legendary Memphis musician Jim Dickinson at his Zebra Ranch. "It was freezing cold. It was tough, just a barn with a space heater. We got that freak element. We got the groovy hate vibe. We got weird." Can you handle the truth? Get tough and enjoy yourself.
