Description
Originally released in June 1996, ‘Odelay’ was Becks breakthrough follow-up to his platinum bow, ‘Mellow Gold’.
Selling more than two million copies in the U.S., the double-platinum-certified ‘Odelay’ featured classics that loom large in Becks live sets to this day, including Where Its At, Devils Haircut and The New Pollution. ‘Odelay’ won two GRAMMY Awards in 1997, Best Alternative Music Album and Best Male Rock Vocal Performance for Where Its At, and was Becks first album to be nominated for Album of the Year.
Produced by Beck with collaborators the Dust Brothers, Mario Caldato Jr., Brian Paulson, Tom Rothrock and Rob Schnapf, ‘Odelay’ continued to demonstrate and expand upon Becks eclectic stylistic palette. It was universally praised upon its release, named Album of the Year in both Rolling Stone and the prestigious Village Voice Pazz & Jop critics poll, as well as the U.K. New Musical Express critics poll, where the album represented Becks platinum breakthrough in England. In 1998, Q magazine readers voted Odelay one of the greatest albums of all time, while Rolling Stone ranked it in its 2003 list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time, and #9 on its list of the 100 Best Albums of the 90s.
