Jeff Beck

[Steve Savicki]

Anyone like him?
Anyone play guitar to him?

[Alex Mogilny]

Jeff Beck was great.

Too bad his ego got in the way and forced Stewart and Wood to leave the band.

But then again if that had happened we never would have had the Faces.

[Steve Savicki]

Need a refresher... what was this all about again?

yes, I know....I could play like Shawn Lane in terms of licks....but I can't produce the sounds that Jeff Beck makes....

Jeff Beck... Maybe he's the most impressive guitar player I know. I've got a good dozen albums, but my faves are "Truth", "Beck Ola", "Live with Jan Hammer", "Guitar Shop" and "Who Else".
I recorded his set at the Montreux Festival in 2001 on Swiss TV... Really awesome.
Sure as Alex underlined it he's got an oversized ego, but at least he's always kept going, unlike somebody we all know...
BTW, in an interview Jeff gave to the press in 1999 with Jimmy Page, they were both asked who was the most impressive guitarist who came after them chronologically, and Jeff said one name: EVH.

What haven't you got, Cato?

Everything is incredible on that recording. My faves are "Brush with the Blues" and "A Day in the Life". Unbelievably beautiful.

I have them but my video is a bit stained. if yours has something else and it's clean, I want a copy.

btw Beck toured Japan a few months ago. he played over the rainbow(!) and some classic tunes like morning dew or scatter brain.

Over the rainbow, he can make anything sound tremendous...
He could play We are the world and turn it into something stellar.

I'll see if a pal of mine can transfer my VHS to Dvx so that I can send it to you.
How could I not do that little something for you, Cato?

[Terry]

He is fucking phenominal.

Truth. Blow By Blow. Wired. Specially Blow By Blow and Wired.

Love listening to him, still not good enough to try doing him note-for-note. Have picked out bits and pieces over the years. Only gripe with the guy is his sporatic touring nature since the Seventies.

Am not into rating guitar players...the whole 'who is better' deal never appealed to me...but out of the three players who emerged from the Yardbirds, would say tht while I dig Page's compositions, Beck was miles above Page and Clapton. The fact that Clapton gets more praise than Beck leads me to think there are many who have shit in their ears.

[Matt White]

Love Beck...

I will master "Free Jam" & "'Cause We Ended as Lovers" before I die....

is Dvx something like a standalone DVD recorder?
