If you have a surround sound DVD system, do not buy the new Beck album Guero <\/em>on CD.<\/p>\n

Instead, purchase the DELUXE DVD version!! It has the entire album, plus several extra tracks, videos for the songs, and more. The surround sound experience is fantastic.<\/em> Beck clearly conceived of these songs for this format\u2013they\u2019re busy with little details, and they\u2019re spacious enough that you can explore them in different ways with each listen. I rarely listen to an album three times through without a break, but I did tonight, and I can\u2019t wait to hear it again. Beck is one of the few rock artists recording in surround sound. His 5.1 surround version of Sea Change <\/em>is an awe-inspiring experience. Guero <\/em>is an entirely different experience, but equally enjoyable.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, I\u2019ve already raved and raved to you about the new Over the Rhine album Drunkard\u2019s Prayer<\/em>. Now I can tell you that the packaging that comes with it is the most handsome collection of photos they\u2019ve ever offered with an album. Since they moved out of that gorgeous old place called \u201cthe Grey Ghost,\u201d where they recorded this record, it\u2019s nice they invited us in for a tour before leaving.<\/p>\n

I know, I know, I\u2019ve been promising a full review. I\u2019m working on it. Very soon. Good reviews take time.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
