Much more into this that year... lyrics actually mean something to me.. and much more cutting edge trend wise.

Beck is good .. but I just had my interests at the time... With Odelay I was still way into Rephlex and Sonic Groove records. With Mutations I was into Belle & Sebastion, Yo La Tengo... music that just means more to me.. by the time I was over being 19 and wanted to chill out ... I was just much more into music that was naturally eccentric. Damn my brain!

I always thought at the time there should have been 15 different Becks. I wished he was thought of as the most normal guy in the world,.

why is beck not naturally eccentric, out of curosity?

tool, for example, are naturally eccentric, beck is pop

why is beck not naturally eccentric? effort. posturing. scientology.

naturally eccentric: the quay brothers.
naturally eccentric: (and already mentioned) syd barrett - mostly because he was too insane to have any pretensions.

lol seanh. nail = on head
effort.posturing.scientology. still laughing! -)

I still don't get it.

Beck was "raised as a scientolololgismist".....

Chick Corea is a Scientologist!!!! Holy crap!

William S. Burroughs was a scientologist?!

Actually, william burroughs went through the first tier of scientology and then wrote a scathing critique of it. It was really embarrassing for them at the time.

Here ya go, delta: link

i wouldnt exactly call it "scathing". through criticism it definitely is.

he does tout it as being potentially more powerful than freudian analysis.

As to my personal evaluation, after six months of study: I would not be writing this article unless I was convinced that Scientology is worth serious consideration. I feel that I have benefited greatly from Scientology processing. In an earlier article in Mayfair I said that Scientology can do more in ten hours than psychoanalysis can do in ten years. For what this is worth I still think so.
