The Walkmen, who have not come through Arizona in support of You & Me (sigh), stopped in for a session on KCRW’s Morning Becomes Eclectic last month.
As you’d expect, it’s heavy on You & Me material. In fact, they played only one old song, and that was off A Hundred Miles Off. (Wonder how sick they are of The Rat.)
I cut up the songs into mp3s, but you can hear/watch the full session at KCRW. I think you can tell new host Jason Bentley is still feeling his way around some of the indie-rock bands he may not be familiar with, but, damn, his voice is made of butter.
Buy You & Me at Amazon or get it with an eMusic subscription.
