Beck to re-record VU & Nico
Posted: 19 Jun 2009 19:29
Free of the limitations of a conventional record contract, Beck has recruited some famous friends to join him for a new project: a Record Club. The Modern Guilt rocker is planning a series of one-day sessions at which he and a crew of collaborators will rerecord classic albums; the songs will be released once a week via his official Website. The singer?s site will experience a complete overhaul to coincide with the Record Club project, which has already lined up MGMT, Devendra Banhart, Jamie Lidell and more.
According to a press release, none of the albums covered will be rehearsed, and the artists involved only have one day to lay down the entire LP. Up first: The Velvet Underground & Nico. Beck?s version of the album?s opening cut ?Sunday Morning? is already making the rounds on the Net after it was distributed as a bonus 7?? with the re-release of his One Foot in the Grave.
He only has "Sunday Morning" up sp far, and here is a link to the video.
