The mid-nineties were a time for a return to lo-fi after a decade of drums machines and synthesizer. Singer / songwriter / guitarist Beck (not to be mistaken for his British namesake Jeff) led that DIY revolution. His 1994 breakthrough album Mellow Gold is still a textbook example of how to assemble great songs with a brilliant sense of songwriting and wacky-yet-beautiful arrangements.
