I have alot of beck CD's that i don't listen to all that often. I just stuck mutations on and i am loving it. I tend to really over look Beck but he's done some amazing songs and is alot better than i used to give him credit for.
Can i hear a hallelujah!

i myself got more disappointed by each of his releases (more or less), i loved (and still do) mellow gold, which in my opinion was one of his most creative, it's crazy, beautiful and very personal, none of the latter releases reach this, they're all more elaborated but less inspired. mutation is the worst beck album i heard (don't have anything more recent than midnite vultures). imho indeed.

my personal faves: sweet sunshine, soul sucking jerk, whiskeyclone city hotel 1997 (or something like that man this tracks is so full of sweat and heat and the consequential laziness, incredible), nitemare hippy girl, blackhole, beercan, plus some tracks off stereopathetic soul manure i can't remember the title.

Yeah man, I really love that song. Beck sings with such emotion in that one. In my opinion it's quite much in the same vein as the tracks on sea change, but a little more optimistic. Much like in many tracks on the Mutations.

i think all the albums are terrific, guero is the "weakest" but only because there's a bit little going on at times, but i'm not warmed up to it properly... midnite vultures is fantastic, slick and lovely to listen to on the bus when it's hot...
golden leftovers, one foot in the grave, fresh meat & old slabs and mellow gold must be my faves...

i started with Midnite Vultures... bad place to start. then i got Odelay. now i have all of his main albums (most of which are awesome, and even the weakest ones are good) and he's one of my favourite artists.

I wish I could say I agree, because I like you Taff, but I really, really, really hate Beck. haha. oh well.
I heard Sea Change was a nice 'change' though. would you agree with that?

used to love beck. still like him. wasnt too impressed with guero (boc remix was the best song imo) but those new beck.com songs like untitled song 2 and sorrow make me still interested in becks new stuff : )

everyone seems to be down on guero but i really like it, there are some real stonkers on there. i suppose it does drag though amidst the few gems.
i have a great mash up of the prodigy smack my bitch up and becks sexx laws (called smaxx laws no less)
i'll link it up if anyone cares

Why? it just sounds like Travis or something. "Paper Tiger" is the only halfway decent song.

overlooked: golden feelings, a western harvest moon field by moonlight, don't get bent out of shape, one foot in the grave, stereopathetic soul manure, fresh meat. stray blues and the loser ep have some awesome songs on them as well.
the only album of his i still have some trouble enjoying for long listening periods is midnight vultures.

This album touches your soul, it is so sad and melancholic. I would cry if I was a girl. Plus the production is very good. My favorite song is LONESOME TEARS. Beautiful.
