Tim Lefebvre in BP.....

Another fan?

He's THE OC-2 ---> Moog LPF guy AFAIK. ;)

I think Justin Meldal-Johanssen(sp?) might be on that list as well- I saw a 'documentary' on youtube of the making of Odelay(iirc), which included footage of Justin and his pedalboard, and one of other guys talking about the crazy sounds Justin got out of the Moog101 etc. I want to say I remember him doing some dub sounding stuff with it... but its been a while.. There was also a little aside with Justin complaining about 'oohh but im just the bass player', or something to that effect :p I just searched for it, but can't find it...

*edit* Found it! It was actually the making of Mellow Gold:

Beck:10 Years of Mellow Gold pt1
Beck: 10 Years of Mellow Gold pt2a
Beck:10 Years of Mellow Gold pt2b
Beck:10 Years of Mellow Gold pt3a
Beck:10 Years of Mellow Gold pt3b
 
I looked it up and I guess 1999? The videos predate the 'foogers by 3 years...

But I also just watched those videos... and they're the wrong ones. Whoops. JMJ wasn't even in them hah, I guess there's a few Beck 'making of' documentaries. And I can't find them...

Yeah, I think Beck and Justin Meldal-Johnsen have known each other/been friends for years before but JMJ didn't start playing with Beck until after the Mellow Gold and Odelay albums. I believe he toured in support of the latter and then started actually recording with Mutation and Midnite Vultures.

You get a good look at Justin's chain.

Yes, he toured in the Odelay era, and appeared as the bassist in the video for New Pollution.
