Spoon performing 'Do I Have To Talk You Into It' Live on KCRW

It's hard to believe Spoon have been making music for nearly a quarter century. They’ve released eight albums with unwavering quality and their ninth – Hot Thoughts – is a great addition to their catalog. We hear highlights from a recent live session at Apogee Studio, hosted by Anne Litt.

Jim Eno is a fantastic drummer. Totally the secret weapon for this band.

[williehopscotch]

favorite track from the new album. pure spoony goodness.

[TheoMatz]

I love how he points at Jim when he says the line about Jimmy

[PeterDiMeo]

the only thing that sucks about this song is that it ends

[MichaelFoleyPhotography]

This sounds like a quintessential Spoon song: dark and groovy. Aside from the synth it feels like it would fit right into Gimme Fiction.

The parts where Brit grabs the crash cymbal sound super sick!

[TalkingMusicAllDay]

"They say I better seal you up in wax so that you'll never have to bite me back." Damn. Those are lyrics.

Thanks CBS Saturday! Saw this broadcast while watching your show having my morning tea a while back, but keep coming back to hear this song over and over again. Britt Daniel is too cool for school.... so is Jimmy.

Never heard of these guys before until on the radio today. Good beat. Refreshing sounds compared to the usual generic modern rock these days.

jim eno holding it down with the beat

[rogerw]

He looks like a young Gary Busey but has talent

[francesott]

hot thoughts is my favorite song from spoon it, s my boyfriend, s and mine song

[lesterlong]

More than zero dislikes is a travesty.

[reshrr]

I’m getting two interpretations of the lyrics. Anyone have an idea what Spoon’s is really trying to say?

[zigzagwandra]

Slick as fuck!
:P
...just still gotta practice puttin' the mic back, Brit!

Is it worth $50 to see spoon live? I can probably afford it, but I don't usually pay that much for shows unless I know I'm going to be getting an experience I can't get from anyone else. I've always thought of spoon as just a solid rock band, nothing extraordinary, just consistent.
