In March of this year, there was an event that many Blasters fans thought would never occur: the five original Blasters reunited for a tour of California. Phil Alvin, Dave Alvin, John Bazz, Bill Bateman and Gene Taylor performed together for the firsttime in over 15 years and the results were absolutely magical. Included here are new performances of Dave Alvin penned Blasters favourites such as "Marie Marie", "Long White Cadillac", "So Long Baby Goodbye" and"Red Rose". It also contains a version of their first hit, Little Willie John's "I'm Shakin", a Dave Alvin song they recorded but seldom performed live "Common Man", a scathing political commentary, the rollicking New Orleans style "Hollywood Bed" and"One Bad Stud" from the movie Streets of Fire. "Trouble Bound" also includes performances of songs that have not appeared on any other Blasters releases including Johnny "Guitar" Watson's "Too Tired" and Sonny Burgess' "Sadie's Back In Town".
