#AlternateFridayMusic Feb 27 2026 This week, we're supposed to #Obey? The Brian Jonestown Massacre - “Resist Much Obey Little” from Don't Get Lost (2017) For years I’d heard #BrianJonestownMassacre here and there, mostly on college radio, and dug what I heard, but somehow an impression never stuck, if I’m being honest, until #AnthonyBourdain put founder/front man/driving force/connective tissue #AntonNewcombe in front of my eyeballs on his food/travelogue show #PartsUnknown. Well thanks, Tony, for helping to correct that oversight. Newcombe excretes music from his pores, and puts out a record whenever he stops to collect this vital bodily fluid. #Shoegaze, #GarageRock, #PychedelicRock, jangly #PowerPop - Newcombe's oeuvre checks a lot of boxes, feeling a bit how I imagine it might be to walk through a car wash: Startling, seems fun at the start! Abrasive at times, chaotic but with a rhythm and a direction, keeps you moving, leaves you a little confused but cleansed. As for this track - could there be a more appropriate time? But be careful out there, friends. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eiN0xpwEIoE

Get the Picture? was recorded quickly as a follow-up to Pretty Things' self-titled debut album. Jimmy Page cowrote the album's opening song "You Don’t Believe Me". AllMusic wrote that Get the Picture? was "a record that's just a few notches short of Rolling Stones level in the charisma department" and that "Pretty Things approach Rolling Stones' territory, and even in their off moments, they're flying at the same level as the Kinks' album tracks." Uncut, in a review of the band's studio albums box set, said that the album "showed they were eager to grow". - Wikipedia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HbdsJO1fLMA&list=RDHbdsJO1fLMA&start_radio=1 #The PrettyThings #JimmyPage #GarageRock #BritishInvasion #Music
