Members onelife 3,422 Posted July 19, 2016 Members Share Posted July 19, 2016 We've probably all seen Jeff Beck's Live at Ronnie Scott's show but this video I stumbled on today is a good example of the Jeff Beck that caught my ear forty years age.

Members GAS Man 222 Posted July 20, 2016 Members Share Posted July 20, 2016 I think it's interesting to contrast his current, fusion, and early days guitar work. Seems like few guitarists have evolved from the '60s hey days as much as JB. I get a kick out of this tune even though he's not doing the finger tapping part, but I'm sure he could if he wanted to take that bit. It's a high energy tune. [video=youtube;p-XefAv6k-4] But when I'm watching his early stuff, I'm like "Hey, I could do that!" [video=youtube;e--e8fScb2A] Frankly, I became a fan of his after he did "People Get Ready" with Rod Stewart. i just love the tone he got going on that. Soaring lead tones but not harsh. Very cool stuff. [video=youtube;MC8IbPObd1o]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MC8IbPObd1o Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Members soundcreation 154 Posted July 21, 2016 Members Share Posted July 21, 2016 Love his old stuff. Appreciate his evolution. Love it when people do their own things and don't care what others think. But I just can't get into any of his "new" stuff. I'll watch it for a minute or two.....marvel at his talent.....then I get bored. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Members mbengs1 91 Posted July 22, 2016 Members Share Posted July 22, 2016 wow jeff beck speaks well on his guitar. he's no shredder but he can say a lot with less notes. does have other instrumental songs aside from 'cause weve ended as lovers', 'two rivers', 'where were you', and 'becks bolero'?
