Beck's unconventional new album, Song Reader, is a collection of twenty songs existing only as individual pieces of sheet music (the hardcover version featuring sheet music for each song with individual pieces of art can be purchased here). So far, Beck hasn't posted full, finished versions of the songs, but he has encouraged fans and musicians to interpret and record the songs. The awesome Rhodri Marsden from Scritti Politti took the challenge and recorded Beck's song "Just Noise" and posted it on You Tube plus wrote about the experience in his column for the Independent. Stream Rhodri's version of "Just Noise" below and head over to Beck's site to listen to other Song Reader submissions.
