New (to me) Tune from Oberon Rose
I really dig this tune, and it’s completely out of nowhere. Apparently this album, Wunjo, has been floating around for a bit, but it’s just picking up a head of steam as we speak, though there’s not much info out there on the man behind it, Tom Oberon. Almost every single thing I’ve read tosses out the Kinks and T. Rex, which I see, but the song below for me feels like Eliott Smith—that also makes sense since Elliot was an adamant fan of Beatles/Kinks-era pop tunes. Regardless of what I’ve found, this song totally owns, and I can’t stop listening to it, or the record for that matter.
