BIRDMAN

Artist: BROTHER JT Title: Maybe We Should Take Some More?
Format: CD Catalog
Number:
BMR35
Price: $12.00 Label: Birdman
Release
Date:
1/14/02
***Combining the classic trappings of '60s psychedelic guitar rock with an eccentric spirituality, Brother JT records are deep, penetrable and seek to entertain. He has racked up a multitude of impeccable releases on a multitude of independent record labels with impeccable taste. His palette expands with each passing release. Heavy pop, thick with guitars, thumping drums and stoned, tremulous melodies takes the listener on a trip through the complex patterns and designs that are unique to the mind of JT. From stretched-out zoner wail to agile, psychedelic strum, his body of work is singular, odd, outstanding and unimpeachable. It's a pretty tall order to name a contemporary artist with enough panache to carry on the legacy of wrecked pop and what writer Byron Coley would call "Blieb Alien rock" left behind by the likes of Syd Barrett, Roky Erickson, Skip Spence and sandbox-era Brian Wilson, but Brother JT is the only name worthy to stand alongside.

Artist: BROTHER JT Title: Off Blue
Format: CD Catalog
Number:
BMR067CD
Price: $13.00 Label: Birdman
Release
Date:
10/4/04
***Brother JT has set the pace for garage psychedelic travelers since the '80s, originally with The Original Sins, and later as a solo artist. The man is an institution. Off Blue is one of the most solid and beautiful do-it-yrself psychedelic records ever, boasting JT's most melodic and "groovy" songs to date, blending mosquito fuzzed-out guitar with a little folk and underwater goodness that resembles the fog descending on a mind filled with bliss.

Artist: BROTHER JT Title: Third Ear Music
Format: CD Catalog
Number:
BMR101
Price: $13.00 Label: Birdman
Release
Date:
8/6/07
*There is only one Brother JT. Any psychedelic/garage/underground rock 'n' roll enthusiast knows this man from Bethlehem who bangs to his own lysergic drum-- the one who came from '80s Back From The Grave revivalists The Original Sins and entered the solo world through the ultra-limited edition records on the now legendary Twisted Village label. Over the last three decades he has defined the underground aesthetic, and his new record finds him still in peak songwriting and recording form.

Third Ear Candy, his latest release on Birdman Records, is danceable, trance-able, romance-able and oh-so-very hallucinatory (-able). This slab of digital wax has a little more moog than usual, a little more groove: "I am the blob and I'm here to save you from your problems, so give me a job," JT suggests on the low-pulsing second track. And he means it. He can save you. He can plug electricity through an amplifier and fuzz your mind anytime. There is a reason why Arthur Magazine, Mojo, Ptolmeaic Terrescope, and hundreds of blogs call his name the defining voice of home-made psychedelia. He is that good and that consistent.

With wonderful drawings by the Brother himself, Third Ear Candy will light your mind on fire. Pure and simple. It is time to testify.

Give the guy a job.

DRUNKEN FISH

Artist: BROTHER JT Title: Come On Down
Format: CD Catalog
Number:
DF35
Price: $12.00 Label: Drunken Fish
Release
Date:
10/27/97
***Original Sins founder John Terlesky releases his second Drunken Fish solo album. Previous releases on Twisted Village, Siltbreeze, Bar None and AuGoGo; Tyrannasuarus Rex-period Bolan strained thorough Pretty Things and soaked in bongwater, beer and choice microdot. Placid stupor never sounded this...stupefying. From 1997.

Artist: BROTHER JT Title: Rainy Day Fun
Format: CD Catalog
Number:
DF30
Price: $12.00 Label: Drunken Fish
***1996 release from Original Sin-er/Vibrolux guy BJT finds relative peace in a little smoke, some TV, and the company of a loved one. Fair comparisons to kindred lost souls Barrett, Bolan and Spence still don't do this one justice.
