Jon Spencer Blues Explosion Reissues

May 18 will see the release of two classic Jon Spencer Blues Explosion albums on CD. The live album Controversial Negro, previously available as a promotional LP, is remastered and expanded to 29 tracks; and the remastered Now I Got Worry in its gatefold sleeve, doubles the original running time with 32 tracks. Both titles come with artwork and an essay along with original liner notes.

Buy them. Seriously. This is one of the greatest rocknroll bands of all time.

"Wail" from "Now I Got Worry"


Trivia:
The title Controversial Negro was taken from the Public Enemy song “Burn Hollywood Burn.”
