Beck's Record Club ft. Feist, Jamie Lidell, Wilco: Skip Spence's Oar



Beck has been one of the busiest musicians in 2009. After releasing Modern Guilt in 2008, Beck launched a website with a TON of different series including the most popular one called The Record Club. This club is basically a meeting where Beck invites a group of all-star musicians to come in to his studio and record an entire album's worth of covers.

The first Record Club installment featured producer Nigel Godrich and actor Giovanni Ribisi covering The Underground Velvet & Nico and the second installment featured MGMT and Devendra Banhart covering Songs of Leonard Cohen. The latest boasts another great round of artists such as Feist, Jamie Lidell and Wilco's guitarist, Nels Cline who all cover Skip Spence's cult-favorite, Oar.

Like always, they post their finished products onto vimeo to share with friends and fans. I've got two of them for you after the jump. Enjoy!
