Beck covers INXS' Kick

DumpJack · **Posted:** Fri Mar 26, 2010 12:02 am

I kind of want to hear this whole album.

Quote:

Beck's record club, "an "informal meeting of various musicians to record an album in a day" is now entering its fourth round. This time, Liars join Beck, St. Vincent, and members of Os Mutantes to cover classic INXS album Kick.

Explains Beck via press release; "It was recorded in a little over 12 hours on March 3rd, 2010. It was an intense, hilarious, daunting and completely fun undertaking. Thanks to everybody for being there and putting so much into it. Many classic moments, inspired performances and occasional anarchy."

I generally like Beck, but I think this is just a bunch of crap he's doing now because he can't figure out what else to do.

And, I think it's a waste of time and have no interest and can't really believe people are clamoring for this crap...and yes I clicked on this thread and took the time to comment anyway.

For me, this is comparable to Sting covering Meatloaf. Two wrongs make a LOMIT.

I like Kick.
But, a "classic"? Odd.

"Two Out of Three Ain't Bad": Meat Loaf hit song or succinct analysis of The Police lineup?

Bat Out of Hell is too much for Sting. Plus who's he gonna get to replace Ellen Foley.

Also, I like Record Club idea.

Yeah I'm not really interested in it either, but I gotta tell ya...if I had the money and the time that he seems to have, I'd be doing shit like this all the time.

well i can only speak for myself, and i'm a big Beck fan, but i'm using the term "downloading for free and giving it some spins" instead of "clamoring."

One of the biggest selling albums of all time.

How is the "classic" label odd?

Agreed, unless he covers Hutchence's suicide next.
