Beck's Songreader album
 
so has anyone here attempted to play any of the music on it ? It seems like this release has kind of been forgotten because not enough people can read music (myself included) but after hearing a few covers on youtube i think it might be his best album in a while.If you already heard some of it what are your favorite tracks im sharing some of my favorites below.

My cousin has actually been trying to get a copy of this, but its all sold out and on back order at our main music instrument dealer, so its selling well in Canada. Or... its not getting printed enough

well i mean there are tons of people uploading their versions of the songs on youtube so its cool in a sense because even if you don't have the sheet music you can still hear the songs and learn from that but I suppose you could sell your own version too.

i have some friends(they are a married couple) who made a few versions of the songs and they got posted on beck's website, whiskyclone.net. and a few days ago they got an email from "beck's team" that said that they really liked the versions and asked them to play at an art exhibition that was opening in los angeles about the song reader itslef. they were all set to play but then i guess some of becks friends were chosen to play instead. they were still invited to go and i guess they met kyle gass from tenacious d and beck himself who said he heard their versions and liked them.

anyways, here's their versions of a few songs.
