Album in a day?

I don’t particularly like only blogging about myself, I’ve decided to share this with you!

So I’m surfing the internet , looking for Beck tabs, so I can learn one of my favorite songs “dead Melodies” . Thought I’d take a look at his site, haven’t seen it in a while/wonder if he’s touring. Anyway, I stumble upon this bizarre collection of  jam sessions of collaborators such as Beck and Feist to name 2, and it’s called the Record Club. Since I’m in a rush I’ll post the intro paragraph on the website:

“Record Club is an informal meeting of various musicians to record an album in a day. The album chosen to be reinterpreted is used as a framework. Nothing is rehearsed or arranged ahead of time. A track is put up here once a week. The songs are rough renditions, often first takes that document what happened over the course of a day as opposed to a polished rendering. There is no intention to ‘add to’ the original work or attempt to recreate the power of the original recording. Only to play music and document what happens.” Sounds cool right? Here’s the link :
