A Ass Pocket of Whiskey

by R.L. Burnside

In an unprecedented crossover, the legendary Mississippi bluesman collaborated heavily with the abrasive New York punk-blues trio Jon Spencer Blues Explosion. Recorded in a single afternoon in a rented hunting lodge, the sessions capture an incredibly raw, raucous, and deeply improvised jam session. The incredibly noisy, lethargic energy revitalized Burnside's career and introduced traditional Hill Country blues to an entirely new alternative audience.
