Guitar Wolf album Beast Vibrator, CD format manufactured in Europe featuring the song Female Machine Gun. Also issued on vinyl and as a CD/DVD set in Japan.
This song was originally written for the Puffy Amiyumi album Splurge (2006), on the US edition of the album the song had English lyrics and was called Go Baby Power Now (Music / Lyrics: Jon Spencer) and the Japanese edition featured a version of the track titled Onna Machin Gan with lyrics by Seiji of Guitar Wolf. The sleeve notes for the album include a piece explaining the history of the track: “Fierceness of girls goes beyond boys’!? Whew, it’s not easy for the boys to face the girls. This is a song I wrote the lyric for a Japanese girl duo, PUFFY. Jon Spencer wrote the original music. Ours turned out to be totally different. Since it sounded so great, I decided to end the album with this song The talk in the middle of the song is a little different from Puffy’s. It may be interesting to compare.” Beast Vibrator was released on CD, vinyl (EUROPE / US) and as a CD/DVD set in Japan. The Puffy AmiYumi album Splurge was released on CD in the US, Japan, Korea, Vinyl in Japan and the English-language version of the song (‘Go Baby Power Now‘) also appeared on the Hit & Fun two disc compilation. The Puffy Amiyumi recordings feature Jon Spencer and Matt Verta-Ray of Heavy Trash along with Simon Chardiet, Daniel Jodocy and Phil Hernandez (who all performed on the Going Way Out With Heavy Trash album) and Chris Maxwell. The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion covered the Guitar Wolf song Kawasaki ZII750 Rock ‘N’ Roll (released by Guitar Wolf as a 7″ single in 1997) on I Love Guitar Wolf…Very Much. Jon Spencer and Russell Simins are interviewed in the Guitar Wolf DVD ‘Red Idol’. |
