It’s rare that Jason Bentley excitedly tells me about his favorite new CD. I mean, the man listens to a LOT of music and the things he likes, he shares on the airwaves with everyone. But over some french fries at The Village Recorder (where we were recording a session with Karen Elson) he couldn’t stop talking about the new CD from Australia’s Tame Impala. I really wish I could remember all the words he used to describe them, but since I can’t I will direct you to another source I trust. Buzzbands.la not only has a short write up but a free download! Enjoy
