Beck recently announced the details of a new project called the Record Club. Beck (and friends Nigel Godrich, Joey Waronker, Brian Lebarton, Bram Inscore, Giovanni Ribisi, Chris Holmes, and Thorunn Magnusdottir) will pick an album, spend a day recording a cover of it, and then post it on the internet for all to enjoy.  ”An album will be chosen to be reinterpreted and used as a framework. Nothing rehearsed or arranged ahead of time. A track will be uploaded once a week on beck.com as well as through the web sites of those involved with the project.” –  Beck.com.  A couple of days ago, Beck & co. released the first edition and debut of the record club, their version of “Sunday Morning” from Velvet Underground and Nico.
