@@joshuafult84 The 90's were the last truly free decade IMHO. I think Beck even predicted back in the 90's that everyone knew privacy was coming to an end and lived it up.
Hello, I want you to know just how much I appreciate everything you have done for me. Thank you for your love and support. You are a true fan, and I am so grateful for that. You cannot imagine how much strength your support has given me during a difficult time. I appreciate you more than words can say. I hope you keep being a great fan. Where are you watching from?
This was from around the time he and Steven Hanft were in a band and invited me to come down to Al's bar where they were playing and be the MC for their show.
Sounds to me like an early version of "Total Soul Future" from Stereopathetic. Beck often did that, made new songs out of ones he's experimented with. Piss on the Door and Electric Music & the Summer People are good examples of him picking up old stuff and recycling it.
YES!!! thank you so much. Can't wait to see the rest of this show. Thanks to you there is now some footage of Pre-Mellow Gold era Beck which i've been dying to see for years!

We had an 8 track tape of VH 1 when I was little - I would blast it & run out the open back door, singing along, was so inspired, tried to dig a hole to hell, then started a fire. LUV Beck!!
If you wanna know how to play this, it's in B tuning and the chords are E, F and C for most of the song (this is all by ear and watching the video). That's how i play it, but I don't know if it's really spot on.
It's been 8 years but I'll keep begging you for the rest of this show. Please sell or trade me this show I'll take an audio only copy I won't post or trade it with anyone else. I just really want this show sorry if I come off as an asshole I'm in quarantine and bored and this show would help pass the time Please please please please please please
Troy Cafe (and Atomic) were Beck's parents performance space, and this alce was a s legendary in LA as CBGB / 313 were in New York City.. The building was torn down 10 years ago. You can hear the crowd here calling for Loser.
It was a fun performance space with lots of great events/shows. Progress has it torn down for the train station. He closes the show with "Loser" which was on its way to becoming epic but wasn't quite there yet. I'll hope to upload it in the future.
Loser didn't come out till 1993 so either someone is calling him an actual loser or its after/during 1993. Setlist has the first time where he played Loser as July 1993.
just saying but setlist isn't always accurate. I’m sure at least 90% of the people who saw Beck perform before 1994 didn't remember the setlists, or put it up on the setlist website. while it is accurate sometimes, you can’t always be sure.
She takes her mouths at the theater Tapeworms in the fajita Playing mandolin like a devil in the coffins Staring at the child made of cheese and black sausage She's got the flower that's groovy She's got the power to move me Hot nasty noodles glued to my face Clouds of confusion, Crimson and lace Crushing the cantaloupe with cupcakes and fleas Moist little gypsy crying on his face Tinfoil ravens fall from the sky The blood of tomorrow melts with the lava
All I heard him say, re, this song is that it's "about sweating", then he goes on to tell that story about camp as a kid & the older boy there who was really into Van Halen.
I walked past Jack White on my way to a Beck concert. He was in some very snazzy Jack Skellington looking clothes, but with the end of the long sleeves frilled and he was so much taller than I expected (he's 6' 2", but I think he had on some very thick shoes as well). Then, when we were seeing Beck perform, Jack White was introduced by Beck as Ghostface Killah for a special guest appearance. They had a ridiculous guitar duel where Beck played much better than I ever knew was possible... like, for anyone... not only for Beck. My mind was completely blown and I think he may not be human.
There was, however, a band called LOSER that Beck was doing club gigs with around Los Angeles at this time. They were a sort of short-lived heavy metal group with a comedic bent. Beck played guitar in that band, and Steve Hanft, who directed the 'Loser' music video', was actually the band LOSER'S lead singer.

That guitar was named Blind Lemon Special. I owned it fir 2 years before giving it to my nephew who stripped it clean. Beck was not famous yet.
Remember, he just won his 5th Grammy.
He's a legend
He used to drag around a broken 20-watt amp. He is the greatest.
This was at Cafe Troys in Little Japanese in downtown Los Angeles. It was a place that started in 1991-92. It’s long gone now.
That guy keeps calling him a loser at the end, what a very unkind thing to say.
+DexterousDiggs haha if no one else is doing it, i give you points for that
it was a request...haha
I know, that was the joke!
@@hellomcflyy wooosh!
unless the date on the video is wrong its not a request loser came out in 1994 @@hellomcflyy
I love his reese's shirt and he looks adorable on it haha
Honey
I like your sweater 😎
Mike Patton wore one also in 'Everything's Ruins'.
Tom Servo even Eddie Vedder wore it lmao. Early 90s Reese’s shirts lolol

I saw him 5 times in the 90s, he NEVER disappointed.
This was from around the time he and Steven Hanft were in a band and invited me to come down to Al's bar where they were playing and be the MC for their show.
You are that guy from the loser video, I recognize you. Cheers Cousin Toms.
You folks still in touch with Bek?
If I ever come across a guy like him in some random club in my town I'm gonna marry him right away
Great plan! Let me know how that works out for you!.... I'm serious!
How's that worked out?
No you wouldn't.
You'd leave with the deucebag who drove up in the BMW.
Of course, Beck comes from money, so maybe you would.....

loved it back in the day - still am - what a talent

love seeing this as his new CD is released! Forever fresh.

This song is called ‘Crushing The Cantaloupe’.
I love his story at the beginning about the guy at camp! hahaha!
I love Becks music so much. ALL OF IT!!!

+TheToasterStrudel that's not a tuning dude, it's really fucked up
+Thomas Patrick Parker well yeah, but it sounds like it's tuned like 4 steps down
Are you sure it's B? I tuned my guitar to B to play this and it sounded off.
Dan Abnormal I think it's actually A# or A. I can't remember which one. I've actually forgotten since I haven't played tuned that low in a while.
It sounded like he said he tuned it way up for this. I thought it sounded like loose strings, haha.
This is great. Thanks for posting! Please post the rest of the show if you have it!
He's come a long way, hasn't he?
I guess so, in terms of sound quality, but I think old Beck still sounds good.
+ChablesMan Meh.
Just sound quality????????

It’s crazy to think about how much Beck music/videos we might never experience. I feel your pain... also nice username

SO glad i clicked this
sounds like magic stationwagon off golden feelings
I hear the similarity. Thanks for the deep dive into golden feelings which I hadn't heard.
Thanks again love all these old beck vids!
Holy hell beck is a genius
This is great! Thanks for uploading it.
It's called Crushing the Cantaloupe for identification purposes, as apparently it doesn't have an official title
my fav beck s song
This somg is crushing the canta loupe
This is the Beck I remember
I Love This Man 🖤
I think this song is called "Crushing The Cantalupe"
Yeah, I could be wrong on the date, it was long ago.
GroundZr0w is this Troy, NY ?
This is cafe Troy in Los Angeles
Loser didn't come out till 1993 so either someone is calling him an actual loser or its after/during 1993. Setlist has the first time where he played Loser as July 1993.

Finale of this show is “Loser “
Here's a link to the 1992 demo. Loser is listed as Kill Me
follow in his footsteps. nice
There were like fifty dogs watching, and when we helped the guy up he was covered in cats
man don't ya hate it when that happens?
Some guy in the crowd wanted to hear 'Loser'!
i fucking love you beck....i did god knows what to your tunes in a foreing land names singapore.
I believe this was July 1993, unless he wore the same t-shirt at Cafe Troy more than once. I can probably prove it.
love this !
I'm wearing this exact same shirt, right now.
This is the same source audio that was used for "Ozzy" on Stereopatheticsoulmanure
A separate recording device could have been present, but this source audio was not used.
So good...
Would love the rest of this even just the audio would be great willing to pay you
She takes her mouths at the theater
Tapeworms in the fajita
Playing mandolin like a devil in the coffins
Staring at the child made of cheese and black sausage
She's got the flower that's groovy
She's got the power to move me
Hot nasty noodles glued to my face
Clouds of confusion, Crimson and lace
Crushing the cantaloupe with cupcakes and fleas
Moist little gypsy crying on his face
Tinfoil ravens fall from the sky
The blood of tomorrow melts with the lava
You realize how ancient this post is? And the footage appears to be from even farther back. Spooky.
@@Adrian-fd4wf A month is not comparable to 27 years
"covered in all these cats and stuff..." lol
amazing thing
All I heard him say, re, this song is that it's "about sweating", then he goes on to tell that story about camp as a kid & the older boy there who was really into Van Halen.
Did he ever put this song on any of his old records or was it a live thing only? I love it.
Apparently the song's called Crushing the Cantaloupe
+curlydumbass It's not, a fan made that title up.
And jack white was born
I walked past Jack White on my way to a Beck concert. He was in some very snazzy Jack Skellington looking clothes, but with the end of the long sleeves frilled and he was so much taller than I expected (he's 6' 2", but I think he had on some very thick shoes as well).

I like it, It looks like Trouble All My Days
Riff is badass
the song is called crushing the cantaloupe
+lenphish It's not, a fan made that title up.
beck's voice has a jack white vibe to it
This isn't 1992, the guy yells loser, loser wasn't recorded and initially released until 1993 and then mainstream in 94
Maybe it was a friend or fan of his that had heard Loser played live previously.
There was, however, a band called LOSER that Beck was doing club gigs with around Los Angeles at this time. They were a sort of short-lived heavy metal group with a comedic bent. Beck played guitar in that band, and Steve Hanft, who directed the 'Loser' music video', was actually the band LOSER'S lead singer.
Loser was a fun band, Steve would near wreck his voice each show
Guns N Roses had written November Rain in the 80's, I think bands and singers have these bullet in the chamber and refine them over time.
it can be found on a 1992 demo
raw
song starts @2:09
does anyone know what chords becks playing and if his guitar is tuned differently?it sounds wild
Looks like E C F to me
The strings sound like they're really floppy so he must be tuned down quite a bit.
It's tuned to B (2 and a half steps down).
What a great time. Back when you could play a guitar that out of tune, and sing about food, and get away with it.
WOW
why beck now looks so normal and sassy with his expensive suits and stuff?
Cuz he's 54 years old. He grew up.
EDIT: well he was 50 when you wrote this comment. Oops. Warm wishes from Minnesota! ❤️❤️❤️
Hahaha the guy went through the patio??😁
what. the. fuck.
this sounds a lot like "total soul future"
✌ 🎸 🥃
Well thats just like..your oppinion, man
fkn wild and funny
Weird story 😁
Its very weird, ... he really looks like Harrison Ford.
Yeah thats cause this is not 1991 0r 92 like this guy says.
nice shirt
1990
Any Alex g fan happen to also wander this way
BECK'S the Coolest would love to hang ;)
Covered in all these cats lol
LMAO.... covered in cats.
432?
Beck really sounds like Jack White here :)
take that jack white
Ill pay you a ton of money for this original video
You can just use savefrom to rip it right off this page. I'll gladly do it for you, for that ton of money, though, I mean, I could certainly use it.
Hard to believe this is the beautiful man we know today... ouch :)
+afriendcalled5 I like him better here than I do now. Don't get me wrong, I still like 'im, but still.
