Review

New York City music pals Matt Verta-Ray and Jon Spencer have joined forces to create one of the strongest works in either of their catalogs. Spencer of course led his own Blues Explosion, after the demise of his earlier Pussy Galore, while Verta-Ray was rumbling about with the similarly inclined Speedball Baby. The two play off each other throughout these thirteen songs with evident glee. Their contrasting vocal styles are heard to great effect on such tandem numbers as "This Day Is Mine." They're joined by a rotating cast of sympathetic players, but it is the strength of their own character and writing that unifies the disc. Sassy, barbed, punchy, and real, they captured each number with rough and tumble perfection. --David GreenbergerIn retro terms, this is the perfect party platter for what the B-52's once dubbed a "Party out of Bounds." The raw-edged music represents a blast from the past through the wild frontier of rockabilly, as Jon Spencer (of the Blues Explosion) and Matt Verta-Ray (of Speedball Baby) take a reckless joyride that channels the inspiration of Jerry Lee Lewis and the Cramps. With a warped twang, delirious distortion, and a perpetual leer in the vocals, the stripped-down duo achieve a hopped-up transcendence on "Lover Street" and "The Hump," while showing a more expansive range on "Walking Burn," which brings a bit of a lilt to a world of torment, and the segue of the country-soulful "Fix These Blues" into the majestic "Take My Hand." Prudish ears take note: the playfully suggestive, not quite euphemistic "Gatorade" isn't the thirst quencher sold in bottles. --Don McLeese
