Editorial Review: Album Description: Beck'S major label debut, MELLOW GOLD, introduced him in 1994 but it was ODELAY two years later that became a bellwether for the alternative rock movement. Now, a dozen years after its original release, ODELAY has been expanded into a two-CD DELUXE EDITION with the addition of two never-before-released tracks, a soundtrack contribution, an earlier indie-issued track, and 15 recordings heard on U.K., Japanese and Australian albums, singles, and EPs never released in the U.S. Voted Best Album of the Year in The Village Voice Jazz & Pop Critics Poll and Grammy winner for Best Alternative Music Performance, Odelay charted Top 20 and earned double platinum. "Where It's At," which won the Grammy for Best Male Rock Vocal Performance, and "The New Pollution" charted Top 10 Modern Rock, "Jack-Ass" Top 20 and "Devil's Haircut" Top 30. Customer Reviews

 Rating:  - Super!!!Super good album! I was asked why I bought this album as I already had the non-deluxe version. Well, it's BECK!!!! And it's definitely worth it because of the additional songs and b-sides!!!! Rating: - so happy together...odelay is all rainbows and sunshine, it makes me that happy. this new deluxe edition has all the gooey goodness of the original, but it just gets better the more you hear it of course. plus you get some new stuff that is magical as well. i could not ever express how amazing beck is, how much i love him! Rating:  - A uniquely half-baked reissue: pine for the days of CD WatchdogSo let's get this out of the way quickly: Odelay is one of the best albums of the 1990s, and is very deserving of the deluxe treatment. And this release comes tantalizing close to actually doing the album justice, collecting (or purporting to collect) non album tracks, B-sides, and other errata to flesh out the Odelay portrait. There's enough wrong here, though, to make one question the $30 purchase price (and to wonder why exactly this thing was in the works for so long)...and if you haven't heard Odelay, you're probably better off grabbing one of the thousands of cheap copies of the original that're floating around. First, the booklet. I happen to find the "interviews" to be sort of senseless, but I can see someone enjoying them. ... Read More: Rating: - NICE DELUX EXTRAS!Beck Odelay, plus lots of other stuff? I'm a little bit jealous, as I still have my copy of Odelay from the old days. This new delux version has a slew of tracks that us Beck fans had always known about, but never had such an easy time getting our hands on... I mean a SLEW! FEATHER IN YOUR CAP, LEMONADE, THUNDER PEEL, ELECTRIC MUSIC... plus way more. Also you get a couple of songs that were only available at the time on movie soundtracks, or rare import albums. At a pretty decent price too. Good to know. This is when Beck still had a million styles and lots of cool music! Rating:  - Fantastic!I always appreciate it when bands release deluxe editions or anniversary editions of old albums with all the b-sides collected, which makes it a lot easier for music collectors like myself to "have it all" - we get to buy one slightly more expensive album rather than half a dozen or so relatively high priced import singles. So my one complaint with this collection is the absence of "Discobox", which appeared on import versions of Odelay. Other than the liner notes also being a bit sparse, I am quite pleased with this release. And I have to confess that I don't understand the complaints about the high school interviews. Beck's always been quirky, so what better suits a deluxe edition of a Beck album than Dave Eggers interviewing kids ... Read More: |
