Bumped! - On Cantanky's recommendation, I watched "Dig!" last night, and loved it. It was the first time I'd ever heard a single note by the Brian Jonestown Massacre, and loved their sound immediately. I got hold of "Satanic Majesties Second Request" today, and have just finished listening to it - a very, very fine album that it too - psychadelic, but also very much modern sounding (quite a big Spacemen 3 influence in places, I feel).
So what's everyone's current fave BJM album or tune right now, then?
