THE BETA BAND
The Three E.P.'s
2018 Europe 2xLP reissue
The end of a long, exhausting day calls for an absolute classic.
Doesn’t get more classic than this.
“I will now sell four copies of ‘The Three E.P.s’ by The Beta Band.”
“Go for it.”
😂
Hope The Beta Band sent the producers of High Fidelity some flowers or chocolates or something. That movie HAS to be responsible for at least half (maybe more) of the copies that this album sold.

The prompt is #Quiet
The Beta Band, “Quiet” from “Hot Shots II,” 2001
#TheBetaBand are from Scotland, purveying kind of clattery #psychedelic music with a #LoFi aesthetic, but when at its best, with some groove - which I think this track demonstrates nicely.
They disbanded in 2004 but I see now that they’ve just reunited for a tour, so hurry out and get those tickets, kids!
I'm starting the "Beta Band At Glasto '25" rumours now....
My favourite Beta Band track, without a doubt: Dr. Baker — https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sL6JfMuXgyo
Welp, looks like I'm going somewhere to follow a band tour ... The Beta Band reform — https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c62zvm40y4po
