Hmm...you left out Odelay, I noticed ("Where It's At" is ending as I type this)

My favorite is Midnite Vultures...it's just...hilarious.  He also invented the word "bzooty".  In the album cover, there seems to be sexual energy being transferred to or from the crotches of men wearing tight magenta leather pants.  That's just awesome. 

People have criticized Guero for being a rehash of older albums, mostly Odelay, with some Mutations and Sea Change influences, but I don't see anything wrong with that.  I think it has a good amount of variety, and I enjoy the album very much.

I also like Sea Change, the most sincere album Beck has released.  It's very soft, and parts of it sound almost like a lullaby...  There's a lot of solemn blues.

I left out Odelay cause I have it, guess I was looking for a recommendation. As for Guero being a rehash, there's worse things that could be rehashed. lol Thanks for the reviews.

About 2 dozen 'best of/grreatest hits' CDs and a few newer ones including X&Y, Out of Exile, St. Anger and Love Angel Music Earplugs.

Out of Exile isn't bad if you're a CC fan, but is a let down compared to Soundgarden's stuff for the most part. "Be Yourself" and "Doesn't Remind Me" are the best tracks IMO.

I do like "Doesn't Remind Me"...heard it once on la radio.
