MR BLUES EXPLOSION MEETS THE NORTH MISSISSIPPI ALL STARS.
CAN YOU HANDLE THE TRUTH?

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 SHADE OF SOUL!!! The resulting CD, "THE MAN WHO LIVES FOR LOVE," is a torrid mess of trouble, twang, and twisted blues. Indeed!
THE MAN WHO LIVES FOR LOVE casts a long shadow of psychedelic rage and hotted-up rhythm workouts. Ass-kickers like "That's a Drag" and "Why!?" burn with party-stomping aggression, and songs such as "I'm Not Ready" simmer with an animosity rarely achieved in even the most mean-spirited punk rock. Originally issued only in Japan, the original Spencer/Dickinson CD has become the stuff of legend. Relentlessly pirated throughout the rock'n'roll underground, it is finally available to Western audiences, re-mastered with seven additional, previously unavailable tracks. Get ready to take a hard look inside the mind and heart of Jon Spencer and his World Boogie Assassins, Luther and Cody Dickinson. You'd be surprised what you might find.
