Beck looks like he just stepped out of a truck stop in the middle of Nebraska, but with "Guero", he's just working with what God gave him, and doing it quite well, thank you very much. This disc starts with the rocking track "E-Pro" (which has an equally cool video), and then moves on to "Que onda, guero?" (literally "What's up, white boy?") This is exactly the kind of self-effacing humility that makes Beck such a badass, and not only is it funny, but it's got a rockin' beat. The rockin' continues all the way through the album. It's fun, it's good, it can't, it won't, and it don't stop. I double-dog dare you to buy this album.
Like Beck? One thing about him is that he changes styles like the wind changes direction. Guero is pure South American influences. Great music to play and chill out to. It's not going to get the party started, but its going to add a vibe that people can get into. Beck is one of the most talented artist who understands all the realms of music, rock, funk, folk, country, and this just another form that he demonstrates his talents.
Beck leaves a indie past to enter a multi-faceted arena of fusion rock with various artist and producers that defiantly know what they are doing. This work covers almost all areas of rock and is a most interesting cd.
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
Best album(imo)from the best(fact) American singer/songwriter in the United States today bar none. And he's a great performer live. His concerts are the best fun and he doesn't rip you off with $300 tickets in the front rows. $60 and your 20 feet away. This album has great songs with great beats. It's not often you get an album with 13 awesome songs. If you don't really dig this record, your music IQ is low. just sayin
I bought this CD because i love beck and i didn't own any of his albums. and to me, it is better to hold the CD in my hand than to just download it.This is my favorite Beck CD. It is by far, one of my favorite albums. Beck has a very nice voice, and his music is always a little strange, but in a good way. I highly Recommend and of Beck's CD's, but this is my favorite.
