  • performance at Troy cafe, 1992. unknown track, I think he says the title of it, I couldn't make it out? I don't believe this is released on any album although I do not have a discography of Beck songs.

    Sounds to me like an early version of "Total Soul Future" from Stereopathetic. Beck often did that, made new songs out of ones he's experimented with. Piss on the Door and Electric Music & the Summer People are good examples of him picking up old stuff and recycling it.

      just saying but setlist isn't always accurate. I’m sure at least 90% of the people who saw Beck perform before 1994 didn't remember the setlists, or put it up on the setlist website. while it is accurate sometimes, you can’t always be sure.

      There was, however, a band called LOSER that Beck was doing club gigs with around Los Angeles at this time. They were a sort of short-lived heavy metal group with a comedic bent. Beck played guitar in that band, and Steve Hanft, who directed the 'Loser' music video', was actually the band LOSER'S lead singer.

      I walked past Jack White on my way to a Beck concert. He was in some very snazzy Jack Skellington looking clothes, but with the end of the long sleeves frilled and he was so much taller than I expected (he's 6' 2", but I think he had on some very thick shoes as well).
      Then, when we were seeing Beck perform, Jack White was introduced by Beck as Ghostface Killah for a special guest appearance. They had a ridiculous guitar duel where Beck played much better than I ever knew was possible... like, for anyone... not only for Beck. My mind was completely blown and I think he may not be human.
