Negative Positive
Title: Not much to offer
Review: I bought this for Beck's "Deadweight." With the exception of Beck's track, the Elvis track, and possibly the title tune from Ash, there isn't much else that rises above mediocrity here.REM's "Leave" is typical of their recent output (i.e., slow, boring, and formulaic -- and Stipe sounds whiny). Luscious Jackson's song is a one-note throwaway. Track 8, by Oh, is a monotonous two-note, 6-minute techno noodle. Squirrel Nut Zippers' track is mildly entertaining, but very, very derivative of early swing/jump.Oh well. I got the Beck track, which was what I bought this for. I was just hoping there would be more to like here.
