Description:

This double CD features 14 tracks that have not been available on CD before. Features two tracks from the band’s alter ego “Acid” recorded in 1993 & also the unreleased “Convertible” & “Their Majesties 2nd Request (Enrique's Dream)”. Also included is 2011’s single only release “Illuminomi” & “There’s A War Going On” . Comes with a 24 page booklet featuring the front & backs of all the original covers. Originally Newcombe was heavily influenced by The Rolling Stones' psychedelic phase - the name comes from Stones guitarist Brian Jones combined with a reference to cult leader Jim Jones, but his work in the 2000s has expanded into aesthetic dimensions approximating the UK Shoegazing genre of the 1990s and incorporating influences from world music, especially Middle Eastern and Brazilian music. The Brian Jonestown Massacre has been somewhat of a musical commune for many respected musicians over the years, a band from the 1990’s that has spurned other great bands ever since. Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, The Warlocks, The Silver Rockets, The Black Angels, The Ravenettes, The Dilettantes (to name a few) are all part of this musical family tree. Indeed, this is a band that has witnessed many incarnations, since its inception in San Francisco in 1992.
