The Song:
“Sunday Morning” is the opening track from Velvet Underground’s stunning debut album, Velvet Underground + Nico. Beck took to playing the song live during 2002 and some of 2003. He has also covered the Velvet’s “I’m Set Free” and “Who Loves The Sun?”
Then, in April 2009, Beck started his Record Club. In deciding to to cover the VU + Nico album, “Sunday Morning” was the first Record Club song to be released. It was promptly pressed on to a limited single, which was included with a One Foot In The Grave Deluxe vinyl package.
The recording was made with Nigel Godrich, Chris Holmes, Giovanni Ribisi, Icelandic singer Thorunn Magnusdottir, and some of Beck’s touring band (Brian Lebarton, Joey Waronker and Bram Inscore). They play a fairly faithful interpretation of the song. All the keyboards add a nice touch, while Beck and Thorunn sound cool together. Beck also mentioned someone involved named Yo, I do not know who that is or what he played (strings maybe).
