BECK
One of the most inventive, eclectic figures of the alternative era, the epitome of post-modern chic in an era obsessed with junk culture. Initially pegged as the voice of a generation when "Loser" turned into a smash crossover success, Beck wound up crystallizing much of the postmodern ruckus inherent in the '90s alternative explosion, but in unexpected ways. Based in the underground anti-folk and noise-rock worlds, Beck encompassed all manner of modern music, drawing in hip-hop, blues, trash rock, pop, soul, lounge music -- pretty much any found sound or vinyl dug up from a dusty crate -- blurring boundaries and encapsulating how '90s hipsters looked toward the future by foraging through the past. In another time, Beck may have stayed in the province of the underground, but he surfaced just as alternative rock turned mainstream "ONE FOOT IN THE GRAVE" <reissue, originally published 1994> LP    K RECORDS     ●KLP●28● PRINTED IN U.S.A.     1997 REPRESSING PARTIALLY IN SHRINK SINGLE SLEEVE HEAVY CARDBOARD COVER Barcode and Other Identifiers Barcode: none Label: K - BLACK LABEL w/SHIELD "K" LOGO ON TOP - BLUE TEXT Catalog on cover: (spine) ●KLP●28● Catalog on labels: ●KLP●28A● / ●KLP●28B● Matrix / Runout (Side A, Etched  & Stamped[GOLDEN]): KLP-28-A GOLDEN L-42479   I  E Matrix / Runout (Side B, Etched & Stamped[GOLDEN]): KLP-28-B GOLDEN L-48479-X  I  C On labels: Artist + Title + Tracklist + Catalogue + Company (logo) On Back Cover: Recorded by Calvin Oct 93 and Jan 94 at Dub Narcotic ∙BOX∙7154∙OLYMPIA. ∙WASH∙98507∙USA∙ tracklisting Side 1: HE S A MIGHTY GOOD LEADER - SLEEPING BAG - I GET LONESOME BURNT ORANGE PEEL - CYANIDE BREATH MINT - SEE WATER ZIPLOCK BAG - HOLLUW LOG Side 2: FORCEFIELD - FOURTEEN RIVERS FOURTEEN FLOODS - ASSHOLE I VE SEEN THE LAND BEYOND - OUT COME - GIRL DREAMS PAINTED EYELIDS - ATMOSPHERIC CONDITIONS grading RECORD NEAR MINT but (please, read above description) SLEEVE EX but (please, see pictures and read above description)   Recorded prior to Mellow Gold but released several months after that album turned Beck into an overnight sensation, One Foot in the Grave bolsters his neo-folkie credibility the way the nearly simultaneously released Stereopathetic Soul Manure accentuated his underground noise prankster credentials. One Foot is neatly perched between authentic folk-blues -- it opens with "He's a Mighty Good Leader," a traditional number sometimes credited to Skip James, and he rewrites Rev. Gary Davis' "You Gotta Move" as "Fourteen Rivers Fourteen Floods" -- and the shambolic, indie anti-folk coming out of the Northwest in the early '90s, a connection underscored by the record's initial release on Calvin Johnson's Olympia, WA-based K Records, and its production by Johnson, who also sings on a couple of cuts. Parts of One Foot in the Grave may be reminiscent of other K acts, particularly the ragged parts, but it's also distinctively Beck in how it blurs lines between the past and present, the traditional and the modern, the sincere and the sarcastic...(AllMusic)
