No, this is not the 10 year anniversary of Mellow Gold, that would have been in 2004, but this is a documentary on the making of Mellow Gold that was released in 2004. I had never seen this before, and it’s pretty interesting.
Now, I always imagined the recording of Mellow Gold involving Beck on a farm somewhere in the middle of nowhere, with a lot of junked up cars sitting outside a barn. Beck on an 8-track in a barn with a bunch of livestock, huffing paint and sucking nitrous, and laying down tracks. So I was a little disappointed when I found out that this album actually had a producer on it and was recorded in a studio. But it still is pretty interesting, and it’s cool to see early Beck performances when he looked 12.

HEALTH have been all over the place recently, which is nothing I can complain about. They stopped by Daytrotter yesterday to play “We are Water”, “Death” and “Perfect Skin”.

According to a few of my friends, i missed out on one of the better shows of the year when Langhorne Slim came to the Ottobar a couple weeks ago, so will definitely have to check him out next time he comes around. In the meantime we have a good new song from him that, to me, seems to channel all the good things of Bob Seger, only in a more folky, rugged fashion. Be sure to check out his new album Be Set Free (Kemado Records, Sept 29.)

Mew showed up to Daytrotter yesterday for some low key versions of a few songs new and old. They first play a nice rendition of “New Terrain”, the opening track from No More Stories, although in this version it doesn’t sound like he is singing backwards. They then go into “Zookeeper’s Boy” and “Special” just proving how great his voice just sounds naturally.
