Odelay by Beck

I think that after Loser hit everybody thought Beck was going to be a one hit wonder kind of person, but then when this great album came out people had to collectively eat crow or something. While Mellow Gold was acoustic and folksy, with only a little bit of sampling going on, Odelay was produced by the Dust Brothers, of Paul's Boutique fame. So this album is a lot more electronic, sampley, and dancey. It loses steam for me after track 8 or so, but having eight solid tracks in a row ain't no slouch. Click on these links!

(Also, I used to think it was a bale of hay jumping over that hurdle, but apparently it's a weird dog or something)
