I really like Guero, tho I I am ashamed that I havent heard any of his older stuff... I only have Odelay, Guero and The Information... really wanna get hold of some older stuff tho...

Where should I start?

Mellow Gold, then work backwards.

That would be Calvin Johnson. He sings in band called Beat Happening. And a buncha others

I love OFITG the best. I tend to like beck's more folk side and OFITG is just an amzing collection of songs.Mellow Gold and Stereopathetic Soul Manure have their moments. This reminds me i still need to get odelay.

I feel like Mutations is really underrated. its never talked about but its got some of beck's best songs on there like "nobody's fault but my own" and "lazy flies".

I really like Cold Brains and Tropicalla

yes, mutations is quite nice. Is it 'lazy flies' that has that riff that sounds like a zep song? I know there's one.

Danny Himself 02.27.2007 06:23 PM

Mutations is underrated, yes. 'Sing It Again' was written for johnny cash to sing, apparently.

Only songs I liked on Guero were Broken Drum and Missing.

The loser single is worth it too. For the song Alcohol, god what a jaw droppingly amazing song. Fume and Corvette bummer are good too. His song " Leave me on the moon " from Kill the Moonlight is one of my favorite Beck songs too

Yea, mutations was pretty decent. I don't like odelay though, I only liked Jackass and Where it's at, that was a pretty weak album. I consider Guero to be Odelay II

Does anyone remember when Bob Dylan sort of ripped ona Beck back during the Midnight Vultures buzz. I believe Dylan said something along the lines of Beck tries really hard but no one can pull of as much as Beck tries to do and do it well.
