Beck Live at Glastonbury Festival: One Foot In The Grave Performance
In June 1997, when Beck took to the stage at Worthy Farm for the Glastonbury Festival, he was riding high on the wave of his eclectic and groundbreaking album, *Odelay*. Released just a year prior, in 1996, *Odelay* marked a significant turning point in his career, blending genres in a way that had listeners—and critics—raising their eyebrows in delight. The album was a commercial success, fueled by hits like "Loser" and "Where It's At," which defined a generation's sound. Beck’s performance at Glastonbury showcased his unique style, mixing folk, rock, and hip-hop elements, embracing a rawness that resonated deeply with the festival's rebellious spirit. It's fascinating to think that this live recording features Beck in a moment when he was simultaneously breaking mainstream barriers while maintaining his indie roots. That juxtaposition of authenticity and innovation is what truly makes his work resonate even today.
