Guero is better than The Information. I like Guero, The Information, Odelay, and Mellow Gold. He's great. |

Is Odelay a good start? I was at Best Buy yesterday, but I didn't see that one. I saw 5 copies of The Information, and a few others. |

baba booey!

"odelay" is the correct place to start, in my opinion. most of his "classic" songs are on that album and it's probably his peak. the new stuff is good, too, but not as good. for the record, "mutations" is my favorite beck album, but don't start with it. |

Be sure and tell her...

I have "Odelay!". And I should like Beck, based on this. It's like all I could ever want. Yet somehow I don't. I like "Devil's Haircut" and one other one I don't remember the name of, and that's it. I feel so left out. |

I don't know, but I don't like it and it makes me so sad! Maybe I'll give it another try. |

THE JANITOR

I would like someone with constructive knowledge to tell us if that is some kind of phoenitic reversals in the song "Loser" or if he is like speaking Spanish or something. I know that perdedor is a Spanish word which may be part of what he is singing but it sure sounds like something less in parts of the songs just before Beck sings, "I'm a loser, baby. So why don't you kill me?" And in other parts it seems like some slight experimentation with back masking or sound reversals are going on in the song. |

He says 'Soy un perdedor" (I am a loser). And I've decided to give "Odelay!" another chance. EDIT: In fact I just did...and I'm gonna listen to it again! |

Cheers to Ivan for pointing out "Sexx Laws". Fucking beast of a song. |
