“In the fast-paced, DIY recording session, R.L. Burnside had no problems, Spencer said. “He was a farmer most of his life. He wasn’t a prima donna. It wasn’t like we were recording with Pavarotti or Elton John. (Burnside) was a guy who definitely had no problem with anything, really. He was tough in some ways, for sure.””

“It’s certainly a rowdy party. Former Sonic Youth drummer Bob Bert told me how he was sold on the Pussy Galore manifesto from the get-go: “Jon’s concept for Pussy Galore was Back From The Grave and Pebbles garage comps, early Stones meets Swans, Neubauten etc. Two of my favourite genres, I was sold. Love us or hate us, no one else sounded like or kicked as much ass.”" – thequietus.com
