I saw them open for Talking Heads in Nashville in probably 1985. Might have been the best show I ever saw. For a brief moment that year Jason and the Scorchers seemed like the greatest rock band in the world and like their great success was inevitable. That didn't happen but that night he came out in a red devil costume and cowboy hat and the music was loud violent and exciting. It was amazing.

It was also the first Scorchers song I ever heard circa early 1984. When I learned that Bob Dylan wrote it, and that it could be found on an album I'd never heard of from 1966 called "Blonde On Blonde", I had to check that out as well. I fell totally in love with that Dylan album, but never lost my love for the Scorcher version of the song, either. They sped it up and toughened it, although they left out about a third of the lyrics.

Heard about Perry Baggs (the Scorchers' drummer) passing away day before yesterday, and had to look this up. I can still remember like it was yesterday the band playing Alternative Jam at Cantrell's in Nashville; Perry was flailing the drums, Warner was almost sawing his guitar in half, and at the end of the song Jason jumped and got enough air to put his fist through the drop ceiling. Most energetic performances EVER! RIP Perry.

Opening shot is inside Hatch Show Print. Still going strong since its founding in Nashville in 1879, although it has since moved from its Lower Broadway location depicted here. Also depicted: Tootsie's Orchid Lounge. At around the 2:29 point, the boys in the band exit the back door of Tootsie's and head across/up the alley to the Ryman Auditorium. That alley is right where they took the cover photo for the "Fervor" EP, their first major label release--they walk right by the same "Welcome Opry Boys" sign.

Just discovered these guys while searching for different punk genres. They were listed as cow punk. Never thought I'd find a band that encompasses two different genres that I enjoy: punk and country! They remind me, in the way they mix two vastly different genres well, of The Pogues, while Shane MacGowan was the frontman.

But they shouldn't have let the corporation talk them into changing their name. Originally, it was Jason and the Nashville Scorchers. They thought it would make the rest of the nation think they were a country band.
