Beck's Record Club

So even though he might be a Scientology I am a real big fan of what Beck has been up to as of late. On his WEBSITE he has a new feature called record club. basically he get some of his musician friends together and they record their "interpretation" of an entire album in a single day. There are no rehearsals and the recordings are low-fi. He decided to start with the Nico & Velvet Underground although he almost started with Digital Underground's Sex Packets. He's been posting a new song every week and I assume he's busy recording additional albums as you read this. Here are a few of the videos so far. If anyone finds the MP3s let me know!

The current Oh! Pears lineup consists of 13 people, playing two violas, a violin, two cellos, four guitars, two drum situations, a flute, a trumpet, lots of vocals, and clapping."
