JON SPENCER BLUES EXPLOSION - WAIL [#1] (7", UK) DATE: 28.APRIL.1997 LABEL: Mute CAT NO.: MUTE204 A. Wail (Video Mix) B1. Judah Love Theme B2. Radio Spot NOTES: VIEW: Grey vinyl 7" in stickered picture sleeve with white paper die-cut inner-sleeve. Judah Love Theme features guest vocals by Cliff Taylor. Wail appears on the album Now I Got Worry and was issued as a one track promo CD in the US and was released as a single in UK as a green vinyl 7", grey vinyl 7" and four-track CD single. Radio Spot is an advert titled 'Announcer #1' which was also issued on a promo 7 with four others and would later be released along with Judah Love Theme on the expanded 2010 re-issue of Now I Got Worry. The "John Spencer Blues Explosion" cover artwork was written by Blues Exploison fan Laura Price in Tipex on an escalator hand-rail at Tottenham Court Road underground station in London. It was actually written before a Boss Hog gig (probably 13th March 1996) although after seeing the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion with Doo Rag and RL Burnside at the Astoria (6th October 1996) I personally saw this  and remember there also being a second part a bit further down the which just said "Damn". Each of the sleeves features a slightly different photo by William Bankhead of the same text.
