    About this album

    Tales Of The New West is the Beat Farmers at their most vivid and best known, fusing country rock, alternative rock and raucous bar-band energy into a debut with real character. Released in 1985, the album helped establish the Southern California group’s reputation for hard-edged wit, rootsy swing and a livewire approach that set them apart from the era’s polished mainstream rock. Its blend of jangle, rock and roll drive and dusty Americana gave songs like “Bigger Stones” and “Goldmine” a swaggering, off-kilter charm. Widely admired for its personality and punch, it remains a standout statement from the band’s early years.
