Beck

The singer runs through 'greatest hits' in LA

Beck gave a rare small club performance at the EchoPlex in Los Angeles last night (November 25).

The singer looked dapper in a hat and vest and seemed completely at ease, running through career-spanning hits including 'Loser', 'Devil's Haircut' and 'Strange Apparition'.

Famed producer Nigel Godrich (Beck, Radiohead, REM) joined the star on stage, playing a variety of unusual instruments.

The audience seemed thrilled to be seeing the star in such an intimate venue in his hometown, and danced and sang along throughout the 90-minute set.

Beck played one of his very first shows at Spaceland (home to Club NME LA) up the road, which has the same owners as the EchoPlex.
