Beck - Rare Acoustic Performances, Volume 2 (1996-1997)

Recently, I posted a Beck album I made called "Rare Acoustic Performances, Volume 1." Here's the second and last album in that series.

As I explained for Volume 1, I've gathered some excellent sounding acoustic performances from the early part of his career. I didn't have any special place for them, so I've made these albums. If the song performances were totally unique, I put those on various stray track albums. So these generally are songs that aren't that, but still are very much worth hearing.

For the first volume, the sourcing was three different radio shows. For this volume, it's somewhat different. Seven of the songs similarly come from three different radio shows. One of them, "Untitled [KXLU]," is officially released on an obscure various artists collection of performances from that radio station. Everything else here is unreleased. But in addition to that, there are another eight songs taken from concert bootlegs. The first six songs come from a concert in Tilburg in the Netherlands, and the last two come from a concert in Eugene, Oregon. In both cases, the sound quality is excellent, and I stripped out the applause, so those songs sound much like they were recorded in the studio, like the other songs.

Not long after this, in 1999, Beck's sound changed drastically with his "Midnite Vultures" album, and his popularity grew, so acoustic appearances at radio stations became a lot less common. I still have similar things to post from later on, but in different formats, so this is the end of the series.

I don't know exactly where and when the cover art is from, except it was taken in concert at some point in 1996.
