BECK & Friends Form Music Club To Re-Record Entire Albums In One-Day Sessions, Post On-Line

         MUSIC NEWS- Alt rock singer/songwriter, BECK will soon be revamping his website, Beck.com and will, when unveiled, feature several new sections, including Record Club.  The Record Club will be a regular meeting of various musicians to record an entire album in one day.  Due to the time limits involved in recording a record in a day, an album will be chosen to be covered and used as a framework for the proceedings. No rehearsals will be done before the recording session and nothing will be arranged ahead of time. A track from these sessions will be uploaded once a week on Beck.com, as well as through the web sites of the artists involved in the project.

Beck plans Record Club to be an ongoing experiment that visitors to the site will be able to follow from week to week.  The first album attempted; one of the few everyone involvedcould agree on, will be The Velvet Underground & Nico.

Musicians involved in upcoming Record Clubs include Devendra Banhart, MGMT, Jamie Lidell and Nigel Godrich. Stay tuned here and at Beck.com
