Everytime I listen to this, I cry ...2 artists that were top of their game. Using their voice, one with his lips and the other with his hands 🎸 . Both spoken 2 different languages BUT connected with the one universe language 🎶🎵👍‼️
I just listened to Jeff Jimmy Page Joe Perry Flea w/Metallica doing train kept a Rollin and I was literally brought to tears. It was so powerful and moving and amazing that I just couldn't contain myself.. To much emotion!!
Music can be diminished by flashy, technical displays of frantic technical stunts that have nothing to do with the composers' intents. Jeff OWNED the melodic touch and unparalleled technique that made his strat the lead vocalist. I will always treasure the way his music can soothe my mind and soul.
Jeff did not simply play the guitar. He commanded it, he controlled it, he made it do the impossible. He mastered it like no other. He was second to none. He was humble, polite, appreciative. He had a unique and a spiritual special gift. No other comes close to achieving all that he did and gaining the respect he so deserved .
One of the greatest talented musician has left the planet. Dear Jeff, you leave an empty space in this world, but however we feel your music in our hearts and souls. Thank you for giving so much pleasure to all people in the world.
@@MrSlytux At School, Jeff Beck wanted to get a guitar, and he came in at age 14 with some bits of wood and some wire from who knows where? He was a year older than the rest of the class, because his mother wanted him to stay a bit longer in school. She was a trained pianist and did not want him to play "Pop" music! It was lunch time and Jeff strode in to the back of the room, and sat on the floor of the Art Teachers store room and fiddled with the stuff he had brought in. We did not know him very well at this stage, so he was an enigma, and the age difference also was to be considered. The class was in awe of him because he was a year older than we were, and soon the boys who knew him best passed the message to the rest of the class that Jeff was trying to make a guitar! He longed for a guitar and was to see a TV programme of Les Paul, and knew that was the guitar he really wanted. In the mean time he was trying to make his own! Suddenly we heard some blues notes come from the store room. No one could understand how he had made those sounds, as in 1958 there were no miniature radios around to sell to the public!! I immediately thought, that he was bound to become renowned for his guitar playing, once he actually got one, and looked for signs of him in the news from then on. Of course he joined the Yardbirds and became famous! His playing is different to anyone else, because of some knowledge given to him by his mother and father and one uncle, about all kinds of music, including Indian music. Cynthia Allen-McLaglen
The one and only guitar player. He is the greatest player to explore all the possibilities that the electric guitar could hold, and a pioneer of astonishing virtuosity. My life has been with his innovative music for nearly a half-century. Deepest salute to him. Overflowing with love and gratitude for him. So lonely and my heart is crushed. I don't know what to do. Miss you , Jeff… I have nothing but gratitude for him. Love you Jeff..
I'm crying while listening especially the first part...it is so sensitive and powerful at the same time ...his music will last forever in our space....💫
Only a few unique virtuosos can integrate an amplified guitar lead in an Italian Orchestra - What a talent - RIP with the Heavenly Orchestra Jeff Beck!
This is a wonderful music in the classic arena today....and Jeff Beck interpretation is so breathless....who would believe that he had this classic style....is softness in the accords....speaks to the hearts of classic instrumental lovers....by its unique beauty......long live this this classic music In the world of music... to play with a big orchestra is not easy.....but our Jeff Beck did it......with a cry....unique person Maestro Jeff Beck....
Absolutely beautiful. The man,the music. He was so talented. He is sorely missed. He reminded me of my big brother who also played guitar. Jeff passed a day after my birthday just like my brother David. I hope they meet in heaven. My heart is broken.
It's all true what people say about Beck's musicianship. But, no one talks about the elephant in the room; Beck, when he plays, is the iconic guitar player that everyone wishes they could look like. He's just "it". Aside the music, he's just a gorgeous, beautiful, iconic masterpiece of guitar god beauty in physical form. He and Hendrix will probably the representation of the guitar player, of today, 2000 years from now just as Michelangelo's Adam is as today.
There are some artists who become more famous after they are gone. I think Jeff Beck is one of those artists, musical guitar playing artists. Incredibly diverse
One of the most amazing things about Jeff Beck, besides his amazing skill, musicianship, use of dynamics, etc. is his gorgeous, soaring tone. No one makes a guitar sing like he does!
Meraviglioso evento, Jeff Beck sempre giusto mai invasive, poi quando entra inventa sempre Qualcosa di magico. Riposi in pace. Il mondo è più povero senza di te.
Abbiamo perso un grande valore aggiunto della chitarra elettrica,uno dei più singolari performer,umile e silenzioso ma unico nel suo stile,ci mancherà assai.
Realmente me ha tocado el corazón. Tal como lo dice el amigo Italiano, Jeff Beck jamás invasivo...toca lo justo para hacernos sentir en otro mundo...en el del tema...las melodías y el sonido de Jeff Beck es lo más hermoso que he escuchado en guitarristas...para mi gusto es "único e irrepetible" DEP querido Jeff!!🎸❤️🙏
Wow, so emotional it’s impossible not to cry. Jeff loves classical music and looked for melody and it was right there with Puccini ❤ Only Jeff Beck ❤🙏🙏 RIP
Jeff Beck and Puccini...unbelievably beautiful.... Such a versatile master of guitar ...too beautiful for words...the master in my view.🎉Love you, Sir. Rest in peace...
Nobody has the kind of control, the sense of timing and melody, the range of styles, the touch, that Jeff Beck has. He is the Zen master of the electric guitar.
This to me would be the most difficult gig ever! A symphony of trained musicians and you gotta be the vocal/melody/soloist for the whole thing. This is absolutely guitar playing in its highest realms. By someone who invented the genre….50 years later. Genius....Bravo!!!!!!
I agree. An orchestra like this could really bring a rock guitarist back down to earth but Jeff just soars above the orchestra like it was always meant to be.
Well 78 is not a bad run. A little early & untimely. Id be saying that if he was 90! It took me a week to recover before I could watch anything.😭 This was the first one Ive watched.
Thanks to Johnny Depp i was exposed to Jeff Beck, so i think it was in 2021 my first time knowing him. And i literally blame myself for my ignorant because his master piece is every where but i just enjoying it without knowing who the master behind it. to think that blaze of glory is one of my fav song, and not knowing it's Jeff Beck behind the solo is beyond comprehension. Now Jeff is gone forever and i still coping everyday just by browsing on youtube every part of his play.😭
" Caruso" il brano più bello tutto il repertorio di Lucio Dalla ! Jeff Beck , ha eseguito la perfezione questa canzone , degli 80 . Bravo anche Fazio ,che ha ospitato questo mostro della tecnica del suono e della chitarra elettrica 🎸 😇🙏🎶
Jeff Beck has the sensitivity & hearing awareness of a top classical musician-evidenced here with his instrument’s relative volume to the orchestra, on the fly-(those volume swells require him to continually monitor the overall balance of the presentation-And he does this effortlessly; A consummate professional Such lyrical playing with emotion! His mum would be so proud of him, especially at this particular concert event.-Legitimate Italian opera culture. 👍
Yes, Jeff Beck, legendary guitar player~ Chills and stir of emotions for me. What a beautiful surprise to hear with Zucchero, who I discovered was a very popular loved musician the first time I went to Italy 1990, I fell in love with his "Joe Cocker" blues/rock style too. Loved when they both said "Rock" despite the rest of the Italian Jeff couldn't understand! lol
Jeff’s such a beautiful player. The way he controls the attack of notes with his fingers, the expression with Whammy and the use of volume pot is just masterful. No one else controls the electric guitar like him. He’s in a league of his own. You realise how little you know when you listen to him play. It’s a moving and humbling experience.
Totall agree with everything you've said, this here is hauntingly beautiful, so humble so engaging it saddens me to think that his guitar is silent now, but at least we have all these great u tube clips, I visit this Zucheero clip nearly every day one of my absolute favs him Jeff and the Orchestra, music doesn't get much better💎🙏
Jeff Beck is inimitable by virtue not only of his unique playing, finger picking and using the volume control (I wonder how many of those he wears out?) but through his ideas, expressive musicality and wonderful modesty, politesse and consideration for fellow musicians. If you add that he translates all this into a magical potion of great beauty you can see how he eclipses many who are famed but become so dull when compared to his bright light.
True, his playing is pure instinctively, he is painting musical landscapes and has the ability to translate his feelings trough his guitar, no one plays like Jeff, its just awesome.
only Jeff could play in this orchestra like this. This is so incredible. Jimi could have done it if he was around. No one else. Well maybe Marc Knopfler...
Have seen Jeff several times but listening to this, the man blew me away yet again. There is no doubt in my mind he is the top of the tree when it comes to guitar playing, nobody else comes close.
Jeff is great. I had the chance to see him once. Unbelievable experience. The first song reminded me of the tone and style of Mark Knopfler. Brother in Arms.
What a master!!! He makes the whole orchestra sound more beautiful. Just exquisite!! Loved Jeff. I bet that he is playing in heaven. So very moving. Tears😢
All I can say is WOW!!!! Jeff just keeps surprising me the more I hear his work. Very cool how his ego allowed him to accompany as opposed to monopolize the set like I've seen so often with guitarists playing with orchestras so many times before. What a privilege to have had him in our lives... If your reading, thank you JB. You have truly enriched my life with your talent. Zk
Jeff Beck is the greatest all-around guitarist with his tone and overall skills to play the singing sound whatever the music calls for. When you listen to the best, it's impossible to tell who's got the best, technical skills. It is more a spiritual question of feeling, and all of the ones I am thinking of are fantastic guitarists, and it's only this spiritual touch that makes it possible to talk about it. The other best ones agree. I just say thank you all. You have given us hundreds of hours, fantastic music. Thanks.
What an amazing musician. Doesn't really matter what the song is, he will find a way to make it his. We are so lucky to have him around. And when he is about to blow a kiss to everyone and leave.. "We do something together?", "Yeah" !
Amazing. Does Jeff Beck really exists or am, I dreaming? This is what you can call perfection. Never too loud, always with the right tone in the right moment, such a humble person despite his greatness. Zucchero's Dunne mosse is a great song while Lucio Dall's Caruso is a masterpiece of the italian music, with Jeff Beck the orchestra and Zuccherro's voice really an awesome performance.
So many of you have eloquently expressed such a deeply appreciated respect for Becks Greatness through many distinctions. He was a living breathing Masterpiece who will come to be recognized as the Greatest who ever Played. Beck was the equivalent of a Saint as he expressed so many miracles deeply into the hearts of those who stop quiet their minds and listen. God Bless your recognition of this Genius.
What's wrong with the British public, we have in Jeff Beck the most accomplished guitar player we have had the fortune to be born in England, he is withoug a shadow of doubt the supreme player of his entire generation.So why is it that he has never received the true accolade he deserves from his countrymen and women.When today legend and icon are bandered around for god sake give this man the credit he is richley deserved, he may well tell you to stick his knighthood , knowing his humour he probably will, but at least give him the opportunity to get something he so deserves.
True, though he needs no bauble to shine: the admiration of other guitarists doubtless more than compensates....I'd hope that, like Bowie, he'd quietly turn down an honour though take your point about honouring the trashy not the fine.
You could probably count on the fingers of one hand the number of electric guitar soloists who have been invited to play live with classical symphony orchestras. There were probably some members of the orchestra, and the audience as well, who were skeptical about Jeff being invited to this tribute to Pavarotti, but Beck probably won them over with his graceful yet powerful interpretation. If you search "Jeff Beck plays Puccini with orchestra," you'll find that he has performed Nessun Dorma (and a number of other classical compositions) live with a number of international orchestras. Right after he plays Nessun Dorma, he wants to get offstage, but they bring him back. Such a humble person! And I agree with the general observations below about Beck's style and ability.... one of a kind.
Jeff!...You Never Cease to Amaze Me ! Beautiful!.. Consummate , Oth er·World·ly Soul, Master of Music!..I'm still trying to Wrap my Mind on your Passing..It's not Easy.,RIP Musical Brother!
