Don't Follow
"Don't Follow" is a song by American rock band Alice in Chains. It is the third single from the band's 1994 EP ''Jar of Flies''.

The single spent seven weeks on Billboard's Mainstream Rock Tracks chart and peaked at No. 25.

He became interested in using computers for his astrological work in the mid-1970s and founded a software company, Matrix, in 1977. In the early 1990s, as CDs replaced LPs as the dominant format for recorded music, Erlewine purchased what he thought was a CD of early recordings by Little Richard. After buying it, he discovered it was a "flaccid latter-day rehash". Frustrated with the labeling, he researched using metadata to create a music guide. In 1990, in Big Rapids, Michigan, he founded ''All Music Guid ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
