Bored With Beck/Beck Is Back

Not gonna lie, for a while there, I was rather bored with Beck. When Sea Change came out, I was like "all right, new Beck, rock on" and all that jazz ... then I listened to it and I flat out didn't much like it. He's a damn good musician, but Sea Change didn't catch my interest, so I kinda forgot about him for a while.

Then Guero came out and there was a big hub-bub about that, so I borrowed it from a friend, and couldn't hear was all the hype was about. I really didn't much like it. It was Boring. So when The Information came out, I borrow it from the first person I knew who had it, and didn't listen to it until about last week.

Freeking ... Amazing. Beck, in my mind, is back. If you haven't heard it, get it. In the mean time, here is a set from early-late last year on the best damn radio station (KCRW) on the best damn show on the radio (Morning Becomes Eclectic) where he performs songs from The Information:
