Mini Jane Beck Album Review


Since the Beck BBS is still in hibernation, I'll post this interesting review of several of Beck's potentially album-bound tunes from Jane Magazine here:

"I just listened to a bunch of tracks that may or may not be on the new Beck record. 'E-Pro' and 'Stone Junkie' sound like Mellow Gold rehashes, and 'Summer Girl' is merely unadventurous, letting the repetitive chorus do the lion's share of the work. But others, like 'Scarecrow' and 'Earthquake Weather' are fantastic Santana (pre-Rob Thomas, thanks) angel-dust voyages that kill. --Jeff Johnson
3 out of 4 stars

The Santana-style tunes sound s'wheet!

Sweet... more song titles!

So far here's a summary of the album:

Gospel - "somber vibes" but with handclaps. remixed by Dan the Automator
Dance
E-Pro - "hiphop vibe" and a "na na na" chorus
Scarecrow
Guero - "stripped down funk" with samples. autobiographical.
Earthquake Weather - "trippy," produced by the Dust Brothers
Chain Reaction
Farewell Ride - remixed and rapped over by the hiphop group Subtle
Brazilica - Brazilian like Tropicalia
Stone Junkie
Summer Girl

Supernatural by Santana has a few good tracks on it. The one with Lauren Hill is great. Allthough all that wanky solo stuff does annoy me after a while
