Big thanks to my friend Sharon for letting me know that Beck has covered The Velvet Underground & Nico and posted the music videos online.
Record Club: Velvet Underground & Nico ‘Sunday Morning’ from Beck Hansen on Vimeo.
It’s part of an on-going project by Beck called Record Club, covering classic albums, rehearsing and recording each single track in a day. Read more about the project in the Wall Street Journal.
I love the super-simplicity of Beck’s website. No frills, no fuss.
What an awesome find! Just clicked through and the covers of “Venus in Furs” and “All Tomorrows Parties” (two of my fave VU songs) are extradordinary.
