Most memorable musical moment?

Justin-

Is there a specific musical moment/experience that you would consider your favorite or most memorable?

Similarly, is there any one recording that you look back on as a significant step forward musically?

Thanks for your consideration and for Sea Change,

BB
 
Recording Sea Change, playing Farm Aid with Willie Nelson, doing three nights at the Greek with Beck in 2000, performing in a medieval courtyard in Fano, Italy 1999. Fuji Rock festival in Japan, playing Rock in Rio, headlining the Henry Fonda theater and El Rey theater with my own band Ima Robot, so many more recording moments, hard to remember.

Sea Change was a big step forward for me, as was Vultures, as was Tori Amos "CHoirgirl Hotel", and probably Air 10,000Hz Legend.

All the best, and thank you!

Sea Change. Man I love that record. The writing, Beck's voice, all of the playing and the sound of each instrument.... I guess sometimes for some reason everything just falls into place.

If you wouldn't mind sharing, I'd love to hear a bit more about the making of that album specifically.

Also, I'd love to hear any thoughts you have about playing with Nigel Godrich.

Your resident pestering fool,

HI Bob Barker!

I've detailed Sea Change in other places, so I don't really have it in me to do another synopsis. If you have any specific questions, that's fine.

NIgel's a blast to play with, live and in studio. He's the homey.

Roger's outrageous. I love playing with him so much. He has an extremely wide and deep musical lexicon, it's awe-inspiring. Haven't done anything with him for several months, but we always connect, so I'm looking forward to the next one.

Best,
JMJ
