Me too 😢😢

I can't believe he's been taken away so suddenly . This departure of my guitar idol is hard on my soul .All I can do is watch these videos and cry .

it seemed to me they both had also a little blues guitar battle they really brought some of the best out each other that night as true guitar players

Dude no kiddin. He was always in control. If a note he ever played made you feel a certain way, he meant it to be that way.

Apparently he didn't follow the rule's, kinda like Hendrix.... he re-wrote them for hisself. RPG. 🚯☣☢

Because he's Jeff Beck, that's why, period. We lost more than people can comprehend when he passed

@@meangene6766 yes. I'm glad to have been led to him before he passed. It's cruel that the copyright holders have stopped this set being a free, publiclly-available memorial to this pinacle of his greatness.

Up next to people like Muddy Waters? Clapton (as much as I love his fluidity) is a sort of replica of all that went before him. He'd say the same thing I reckon. But Jeff Beck .... man, this guy is a ONE OFF I'm just trying to figure out why he'd be knocking around with Johnny Depp

​@@jipangoo "Clapton (as much as I love his fluidity) is a sort of replica of all that went before him." I respectfully disagree. Also, who really cares about someone being a "replica"? All those English guitar players learned the black man's song and made it their own essentially. I don't know of many others who have the precision of Clapton (probably John McLaughlin, but that's an entirely different genre). Richie Kotzen also comes to mind in terms of passion, dexterity, and accuracy. Doesn't matter how fast Clapton plays; I can always hear every single note, and that's what I love about him. His guitar-style is so distinguishable; there are many times I didn't know Clapton played on a particular song, and I listed to the solo and thought to myself "Is that Eric Clapton?" and sure enough, it was him. Clapton has so much soul, passion, and love for the blues and the Tulsa-sound that it just emanates through every performance. Clapton knows how to play with incredible speed and precision without being sloppy (unlike Jimmy Page, who even though I thoroughly love, he admittedly very sloppy at time). I can distinguish every note Clapton plays in his solos. Not to mention his vocals. Dear lord, Clapton is seriously underrated as a vocalist. Not only can the man play an insane solo, but he can sing gorgeously at the same time. I believe Clapton is very much misunderstood in terms of music. Yeah, obviously the man himself doesn't have very good morals and has gotten involved in some very stupid controversies, but I'm here for the music, not someone's political, medical, or social views. And there's no denying that Clapton is the Crème de la Crème. Listen to Clapton's live performance "Nothing But the Blues" and "Live at Hyde Park". Astounding performances. I'd argue that Clapton too, is a one off just like Jeff Beck. No one is quite like him. And no one will ever be like Jeff Beck either.

@@jean-philipperameau4220Dear Blow-job Yeah

@@jipangoo Nice ad hom. What other gr8 insult you have for me m8, I'm waitin'.

@@jipangoo He was probably was having a great time. That is all I could think of.

2 of the best

Yeah bro

Reds? There? My Gawd YES!!! 🎼🎶🎵🎶❤🌺🌻🎧✌🎸😎

I feel as I am, young 73.

you can bet I am Tim, only I am playing a Lesser Paul guitar, well its a Dean but having fun though

Post pandemic 2022 baby

Jimi hendrix & stevie ray vaughan shouldn't be left out..

@@Hugos_music_stuff absolutely not,i just grabbed these two cause the video is of them,STEVIE MESMERIZED ME,i had tickets to see him,but he died two day earlier,i wept for a month,the thousands of hours lost in practice,saw HENDRIX at the pop festival in 1968,genius

He definitely knew, without a doubt. Especially Jeff

Get some therapy mate.

@@bluespig1 Eric and Beck are the therapy

Thats happens when you love guitar hero and you don't need therapy maybe try to relax and thats all .

Can I offer you a Midol?

Beck tears up that slide guitar, my lord lol

Pure CLASS!.👍

Totally spot on ... this showcases massive maturing and growth in what he pulls off, singing and guitar

@freedomisnocrime then why come here.common hater tbh.Whos good then? before you respond please dont mention zeppelin.And whoever you name, i hope for your sake they been selling out shows for almost 60 years, you just might be in trouble with this convo

Amen Tim, Amen!!! 🙏🙏💕🌻🌷🌷✌🎼🎶🎵🎶✌😎

Mr Clapton's vocals have always been spot on, just not showy. Seldom recognized for his skill in that area, in my mind. He's the best. JB is skilled and technical and novel (and Truth is a desert island album of mine) but he doesn't have the soul that Eric does.

@@SoulDaddy33 Yeah! But Beck's got all the guitar chops in the world. Eric's great on guitar but Beck oh my god. Beck doesn't sing but I think it's because he's a mute.🤣🤣🤣

John Bonnell 4 years longer than me!!!! So very lucky ........

Amen

👍just turned 68 & I'll listen to this stuff till 4-EVER🎸🎶🎧🔊❗

i remember seeing jeff during the short -lived super group "beck, bogert and appice". i have always been in awe of him

Very luky, Im 68 but I discovered him only 4 years ago..

theres actually people that dont think hes good. i see the dumb shit on facebook guitar pages. i dont fucking get it. hes one of the best blues guitarist ever. top 100%

@@tw8454 He's alright. Jeff is the real blues sound though, this performance shows that perfectly, levels above

RIP Jeff Beck! Peace be with you!

Two very humble individuals…RIP Jeff 😞

Beck wouldn't have had a career, if it weren't for Clapton leaving the Yardbirds and Page recommending him as a replacement.

@@thomasbutler5446 Eric Clapton is my favorite guitarist of all time, but I disagree that Beck wouldn’t of had a career if Clapton hadn’t left the Yardbirds he would’ve showed up somewhere he was too good to ignore. 🇬🇧🇬🇧

@@Cream1968 yes but that gave him a great head start into the limelight.Which we all know is super important.Quinn sullivan is a techinacally perfect guitar player but with no light shown, its a different story, thats facts

Exactly. Two old buddies having a jam. Fabulous.

How about Jason Rebello on keyboards? He was a regular in Jeff's band for years, which says it all.

Yeah baby

Beck

Blessed generation of guitar genius 💜

Agreed on all points,

Thankfully Eric left the yardbirds gave beck his first chance the rest is history. Beck in an interview later said ev1 thought Eric was crazy to leave them cream was born

That's the perfect comment. Thank you! Yes. Amazing just to see two greats up there enjoying themselves (what a privileged audience!. How on earth do you get into that place & at what cost!? Must have been staggering to just be there & so close). You hear far too much "Who's the best?" rubbish when it comes to these 2 (and others). The Clapton haters, etc. It's all a waste of space. Why need a best? They're too different to compare in such a way. Both geniuses in their own realms. There's so much more to consider when talking about guitarists. I respect them both enormously. I doubt either one of them (once old enough) ever thought in terms of who's the better player?

You can tell that Tal is there... That zen moment which most hope for but never get.

Absolutely top flight

Her bass line is perfect for blues. It's right there and is not too fancy. A bass player has to hold everything down in blues.

I wonder if she gets nervous sharing the stage with guitar legends? She is amazing

Her bass just anchors the whole thing.

Vinnie on the drums is on par with the 3 on the front of the stage his resume of bands/ performers and songs is 20 pages long. to cut his teeth he Played with Zappa for 20 years

Slob with Vinnie and Tai

Would have been nice to have included the drummer Vinnie Colaiuta and Jason Rebello on the keyboards in your supergroup. All five of them were superb on that evening at Ronnie Scott's.

Jeff does three things extremely well. Fusion, rockabilly, and interpreting melodies that were never even considered for the electric guitar. He can also make you scratch your head sometimes.

He's at his best here.... as a Sideman. When it's just him, things seem sparse

Frank Stackowitz bore off

@@frankstackowitz9234 You mean Clapton.

The way he squeezes each note out is a joy to watch

Tal is already a legend !

she's not there to look cute, she's there because she's a shit-hot bass player

Obviously you didn't read my whole comment. People like you amaze me. You get offended if someone comments on the fact that she or some other artist is beautiful as well as super talented like you can't be both. Well sorry if you're offended but tuff shit. BTW she's my favorite bass player regardless of how she looks. Her feel of time is wonderful and her solos tell a story not just a bunch of notes that go nowhere. She's not only an amazing bass player but she plays guitar really well and has a great voice.

And they're both from Surrey, as was Jimmy Page.

Yes indeed ! The bass player played with JB on at least one of Clapton's "GuitarCrossroadsFestivals".

Vibeke Schneidermann Ha ha. U hit it. Ha

Although Jeff hasnt really changed that much since 1966 . Most English people age erratically . Look at Robert plant . He looks like he is in his 80's . John Paul Jones looks like he is in his 40's . Even Page looks like he is in his late 60's . Plant got ripped . Clapton doesnt look bad . Looks like his 60's Rod Stewart looks the best for 75 .

Maybe 10....

Sorry to inquire but is it a reference to his resemblance with Geoffrey Rush? I just wondered as they currently look very alike

@@eduardoalcala8310 no that's Jeff's real first name. Birth name.

Ha ha 😂😂i hope your not thinking his hair is natural 😂😂😂

Dye

@@samuelharden9446 See Tal smile when their eyes meet.

He has hair implants. 70+ year old men lose some hair. They don’t have the hairline of a 20 year old.

@@rickjason215 ahh some do ricker

You can tell they loved every minute of it

It defies comparison.It leaves us with a what if. They could have been the penultimate blues band.

Peter Hoghead i was thinking the same, he is having a blast and it shows

Beck was Jimi before Jimi surpassed Everybody!!! Now that we’ve come down to Earth; it’s Jeff Beck!

Mark W Jeff’s a great guitarist. Hendrix has his place in history, probably more for stage pyrotechnics and effects than actual playing. Jimi’s inadequacies as a guitarist show up when he tried acoustic-way overrated as a musician. Too many genres, too many metrics to name a single greatest, but all one has to do is watch a brief Gary Moore “shredding blues, rock, jazz” video, or Danny Gatton’s “compilation” or Red Neck Jazz” or consider Jerry Reed, Chet, SRV, Joe Pass, Roy Buchanan, & others to know that Beck, Hendrix have a lot of company at the top.

Heavy Mental Did you get to see Jimi play live? The pyrotechnics were showbiz, just to get things started. At the Fillmore or similar venues the band played very creative and soulful. Lots of very quiet passages where you could hear just how sweet he could play. I’ve been disappointed over the years at how little of that music has been made public. Jimi as a blues/jazz musician just doesn’t have the commercial appeal. 😎

Mark W I also saw people get up and leave his concerts due to the repetitiousness of certain amelodic lines and riffs that seem to go nowhere. The ere he lived, rebellion against the establishment, anti war, racial strife, drugs, freedom of expression, stage theatrics, electric effects, and folklore leads folks to place him on a pedestal. Seat Hendrix, unplugged, on your divan, next to any of dozens of other players and he shrinks. Seeing Terry Kath in ‘69 at Fillmore west up close, later, Danny Gatton in ‘77 the night “Humbler Stakes His Claim”was recorded, and SRV numerous times, up close, I forgot about Hendrix.

Yep it all aint so bad when you got music like this

New music is lit every day open your ears man

Jeff Beck's the man, always has been since the beginning.
