Product Review

Vinyl pressing of their 1999 EP release, the BJM conjure up visions of Beggars Banquet-era Rolling Stones and other artists from the swinging '60s. Emphasizing acoustic slide guitars, harmonica, handclaps, and tambourine, Anton Newcombe sings passionately in Jaggeresque style. While decidedly retro, the band is always entertaining as they evoke their musical heroes. Folksy, bluesy, and particularly understated, this disc contains only six songs and leaves you hungry for more. a Records.
