Beck LPs Hitting eBay!
Moving right along to the B's we have Mr. Beck Hanson. As will be the case from here on out, I'll showcase the LPs here and provide the links to the auctions on eBay. All of my Beck LPs are the original releases, some extremely rare. All are in near mint condition and include all of the extra goodies that were originally packaged with the albums.
Beck Hansen is an United States musician, singer-songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist known by the stage name Beck. With a pop art collage of musical styles, oblique and ironic lyrics, and postmodern arrangements incorporating samples, drum machines, live instrumentation and sound effects, Beck has been hailed by critics and the public throughout his musical career as being amongst the most creative and idiosyncratic musicians of 1990s and 2000s alternative rock.
He rose to underground popularity with his early works, which combined social criticism (as in "MTV Makes Me Want to Smoke Crack" and "Deep Fried Love") with musical and lyrical experimentation. He first earned wider public attention for his breakthrough single "Loser", a 1994 hit.
Beck has released 8 major label albums. Two of Beck's most popular and acclaimed recordings were Odelay and Sea Change. Odelay was awarded Album of the Year by American magazine Rolling Stone and by UK publications NME and Mojo. Odelay also received a Grammy nomination for Best Album.
To date, Beck has sold 7 million copies in the United States, and around 15 million worldwide.
