Not in Hall of Fame

That is a label that many paint him with. Seemingly, there is no instrument that Beck can’t master and put his own spin of quirky and trippy alternative sound to. Painting him as an anti-folk rebel or really anything in the alt spectrum seems wrong. Beck is so much more than just an ironic hipster, he is a rock and roll star…whether he thinks he is or not.
