Super Bad Sunday: Brian Jonestown Massacre

Today is Brian Jonestown Massacre leader/mastermind Anton Newcombe‘s birthday. We dig their psychedelicized groove thang. More than a throwback, BJM is a swell, smart evolution of the West Coast late 60s golden age of paisley, LSD-stroked fare. And they come in other appealing flavors, despite that rep (well deserved as it is). Happy 43rd, Mr. Newcombe. May your friends and allies bring you curious spices, beautiful dashikis and comely companionship this natal day. (Dennis Cook)
