The Reverend Horton Heat - Loaded Gun (Live on KEXP) 

Jim Heath is one of the grand masters of rock and roll , and all the sub genra's class ,metal, punk , psycho billy what ever type name of music , Jim Heath and Dick Dale are some of the greatest guitar masters that nobody respects or talks about

A true career musician. I have seen them three times. Including a festival show. They were great every time.

The best tunes in a very long time ,im 60 yrs.old and the Rev. brings me back in the good old real days in hot Texas nights .

God damn this is fucking amazing, I've never heard this version before and this quality was fucking sublime. I am just taken aback. This is my favorite reverend song and it really means a lot to me. I love this vid, great post thank you. Had me croonin' with all the same soul as the rev himself!

This is the first time in a long time that my teenager has thought my music was "cool". Thanks Rev

James! A pleasure to have met you the quick minute in green room at Harlows in Sacramento, Ca. with Kyle Rowland Harp buddy of mine a few years back and of course I did mention I cover this song from time to time ! Thank You !! L.B.

❤ Happy Birthday to Me. Great song from the South, the Southwest is the best! 🤠

Studio quality. Double bass. Radio engineering. Performance.

Play this at my funeral.

I used to work a few clubs in portland and was lucky enough to have gotten to see the Rev one fine night 25 years ago

It's so sad that music of this caliber isn't being made anymore. Not to many real men left.

To stand right underneath the Rev when performing this song is effing unreal. They are absolutely brilliant---all of 'em!!!

A great band live, real musicians.

Saw them in a small venue a few months back. Best rock show I have ever seen hands down.

Drowned in a sea of whiskey.. lyrics of blue poetry...

Heard this in the movie- Love and a 45- . Love finding great "new" music

I’m digging the lyric change.

My soul implode on this song Same as i first hear it 30 years ago

I work the Southeastern bar circuit back in the 1980s these guys were out there then they only improved as hot as the barrel of a loaded gun

Holy shit.

Holy fudge,how old have they gotten. I'm 41 this year, and was a teenager the first time I heard this song from them.

My right hand holds a cold Corona bottle My left hand holds a half a fifth of Gin My right arm reaches out for her love only But my left arm still embraces a life of sin My pockets they are stacked with our rent money And I'm spending it as fast as they will flow And I'm thinking I'm a devil child or something Because I wanna go to bed with every girl I know We had ourselves the sweetest little family We laughed and sang and had a lot of fun But I drowned it in a sea of stinkin' whiskey And now the only little love that's left is a loaded gun My right hand holds a vile of trainqualizers My left hand holds a loaded .38 I've got a young girl who's anticipating romance But it's looking like she will have to wait We had ourselves the sweetest little family We laughed and sang and had a lot of fun But I drowned it in a sea of stinkin' whiskey And now the only little love that's left is a loaded gun And now the only little love that's left is a loaded gun

Holy Moses this is deplorable and beautiful.

I was wondering which tune was played during the movie "Love & A 45". Groovy Tune Indeed, I can dig it Daddy-O. 🤡

Это прекрасно!

Yes!! Yes!! Yes!!

Love this version! Go Rev Go!

Bestens..!! 😊 👍

I can't listen to this without thinking about being in Deep Ellum in some asbestos laden bomb factory full of trees and my gal snake dancing pressed against me chugging Shiners as fast they will come RHH on stage and there's nothing left but us in the universe

dude is a fuckin master

oh my god yes

Did shots of jeager with him in the 80s. I was 15. Good times!

The second verse of this live version is not on the "Full Custom Gospel Sounds" disc that contains the original studio version of this song.

Why did swing/ska take off and not whatever the fuck this was? I’m not sure if musical is more cyclical in its hits, or its might-have-beens
