Joining us this week, the inimitable Jon Spencer. Jon talks us through Pussy Galore, Blues Explosion, Heavy Trash, working with Steve Albini, US punk networks, record shops, and his current band.


We also get onto The Fall, Jon supporting them on the 1993 US tour, infamous gigs in Philadelphia, Reading and Connecticut, Brix, Mark E. Smith, Elena, bass amps, rockabilly, the Brix-era records, and imitating Steve’s bass sound. Hope you enjoy!
