NOTES:
Vinyl edition* of Under The Influence of… issued in picture sleeve with die-cut white paper inner sleeve. Features Jon Spencer on Tahonga Lounge Babe (Most Groovy) .

This track was also released on From The Vinyl Archives Of… (CD, DENMARK).

*The CD edition of this album features a version of Tahonga Lounge Babe which does not include Jon Spencer.

The Tremolo Beer Gut would record a version of the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion track She Said which was released as a b-side to the single Shakin’ Rock ‘n’ Roll Tonight and a few years later Yebo (of The Tremolo Beer Gut) was to perform in the Heavy Trash live band and appears on Going Way Out with Heavy Trash.

“Who was the first guest at the Crunchy Frog show case at CMJ ’99? Yes indeed: Jon Spencer. In the time after these meetings the bands tried hard to get to play together in Japan, but as every attempt failed The Tremolo Beer Gut ended up doing a European tour together in ’00 with Spencer’s other band, Boss Hog. Playing London, Amsterdam, Malmö, Hamburg and Berlin, the bands ended their tour by playing a version of Sonic Youth’s “Death Valley ’69” together in Berlin. The Beer Gut played the back line and the girls of Boss Hog sang, while Jon Spencer did the front of the house sound. A psychedelic experience indeed!”
