Beck's 'One Foot In The Grave Re-issue'

[Nicodemus]

Beck is releasing a remastered version of 'One Foot In The Grave' with 16 b-sides including 13 previously unreleased tracks.

The deluxe package includes a tote that reads: 'Teenage Wastebasket', a signed poster, a 'Cyanide Breathmint' T-shirt, double vinyl, download... all that. $105.

Does anyone care? I love this album. Had to say something.

He's a mighty good leader.

Forgot that part.

This and Mellow Gold are pretty much the only Beck albums I actually enjoy.

Atmospheric Conditions ftw

[mickill]

In actuality, Girl Dreams ftw

[The Notorious LOL]

I am actually considering pissing away $100 on this. I love this album more than anything else Beck has recorded.

[Nicodemus]

Well, there aint nobody left to impress,
and everyone's kissing their own hands...

It's an amazing album, and I'm glad to see it finally get a bigger release. Painted Eyelids, Girl Dreams, Asshole, and Cyanide Breathmint are up there with Beck's best stuff.

Now that this version is hitting I wish I'd waited instead of plunking down so much for the original...

[thegoodmrbrodie!]

yummy album.

[Waus]

It's so crazy that it has early versions of "All In Your Mind" and "Feather In Your Cap."

Makes me wonder how many songs he just sits on until they fit an album or single release.

[The Notorious LOL]

^ lots. A friend of mine at one point several years ago decided he was going to get ahold of every Beck recording possible, but eventually quit when it became an insurmountable task.

[Nicodemus]

I'm hoping that he eventually releases something similar to Some Old Bullshit that consists of those early, early recordings.

If you haven't heard it... 'Special People' is one of his best songs ever.

[The Notorious LOL]

special people got special beer.
