That was the album that introduced me to him, too. But it wasn't his first album, really. He had about 3-4 albums worth of songs, and recorded for different indy labels as well as DGC for Mellow Gold.
Thank you to whoever posted this!! "Unplugged" was a way for a band to show its true talent. You're more exposed up there without the loud distorted guitar or the pounding drums to hide behind. It also gave the musicians an opportunity to use different instruments and, sometimes, different arrangements. I'm glad Beck is still going strong!!!
0:17 black tambourine (amazing improv) 4:48 girl (my favourite) 8:40 guess i'm doing fine (my other favourite) 11:57 tropicalia (great percussion) (yes, i have a comment for every song)
@@evanabbott2737 Ha, I was just going to say that. I thoroughly agree with any and all high praise for any of this. And especially for Girl! Damn, just amazing.
I believe that is Sam Jayne on harmonica, Speak & Spell, keyboard, and vocals. Very talented artist who also played on Beck's album "One Foot in the Grave" and had was in the bands Love as Laughter and Lync. If you like early Beck check out the Love as Laughter album, "The Greks Bring Gifts". He sadly passed away in 2020.
The toy keyboard was not the best choice here. Guess I'm Feeling Fine is such a classic song. Sea Change was a masterpiece. Like to hear Beck with a better band though.
beck is the prince is the david bowie of his generation
Beck has been my most fave artist since his first album “Mellow Gold” and everything since!

Couldn't you still use a drum kit in an unplugged performance? It's not an electronically-operated or amplified instrument.
@@k-leb4671 It looks like he's banging on an upside down plastic bucket. Does that count? heh
Beck is Amazing. Fortunately, his talents balance today’s mundane “Radio Music”. Love what he has done to modern music.

Thank you are awesome video
Love that version of Black Tambourine....excellent!
Brilliant through and through.
and Summer Girl becomes Cyanide Girl...... Fantastic!!
What an awesome version of Black Tambourine!
the unironic fedora is the perfect avatar of his output at this time
Beck makes great ageless tunes. He strums pretty hard. Goes through strings often I’m sure.
2:05 lol..
Wtf, that's so cool
It looks like a modified vintage speak and spell
Beck is the shit!
Who the fuck says that? Oh, a great, a magnificent artist!
God damn this is just so incredibly good. Thanks for posting.

Its Brian Lebarton not Sam Jayne.
@@sully1time Thanks for the clarification! Couldn't find any info about this lineup.
@@HughGuthrieHolden No problem, i have been mixing Becks Live shows from 2006 till current, so i know all the lineup changes pretty well!
@@sully1time That's awesome! Are the live sets you're mixing going to be officially released?
@@HughGuthrieHolden doubt it.
Will never get enough of this.
Oooohh. I just missed a heartbeat. Or two.
Love this. Thanks for posting.
I could watch this a billion times
Howard Moon and Vincent lifted this ditty, no doubt
the more I listen the more the detail;s erupt organic.
LoL!!! at the speak and spell being used as an instrument...
Were they using a speak and spell to make music? That's so bad ass!!
New album is amazing. This is still a fave. though.
Great video!!!
love this guy, put him right behind david burne
Absolutely James! What d'you think of this one? th-cam.com/video/uYLBP3B0uM0/w-d-xo.html
Noel Fielding was great in this
A young Dave Grohl as well at 12:36
out of context this just looks like a bunch of weird guys making noise. well it still kinda is. but it rocks
Love me some Beck ❤
Was that guy playing a speak and spell??
I have been too! It used to exist online through a vh1 taping, and then kinda just disappeared.
In the beginning it sounds like the intro of sympathy of the devil a bit but better with more butter and less stale old bread!
What a cool concert 👍
Thanks, I've been looking for this taping for so long!
Jesus...does a Girls version could get any better than this!!!
Awesome!
Oh yeah……Jam out on the Speak and Spell !!
makes me smile
BECK RULES !!
Love this so much! 💜
I like how he’s pretending he’s doing anything at all on that guitar. Big fan, btw. Don’t hate me, TH-cam.

Despite the occasional jam band sludge there are moments here of true sublimity 6:48

Eric Blevin I Think so ahah

don't ask questions
Because it's a ... ... black tambourine.
Doo doo duh doo doo duh doo duh
Because the Girl is Cyanide..
shit gets real at 9:00
PlayeroftheYear Good! but the record has been at least 11 years ago.
¡Odelay!
live songs versions done right. In your face U2 and gorillaz.
さすが外タレ。TV出演は口パク当て振りがデフォ。
One word: girl
This version reminds me of his song Motorcade
Girl
SOOOOOO RACIST!!!! How dare they....
could've taken kurt's spot as white poet of gen x until south park exposed him like woodward & bernstein...
Get bent.
How did South Park 'expose' Beck? Please tell me more.
Kind of lost me at the speaking spell. He's reaching
Thanks for uploading this man. Really good find.
How could Any one get sick of watching this? It’s sick !
I didn't appreciate Beck till I got older.
Beck!
he has an alien mind and is brilliant
Been a fan since the first bar I ever heard in 94
