I’ve been listening to Jeff’s music for over 50 years & my jaw still drops when I hear a solo like this. RIP Jeff Beck, thanks for giving us so much good music.
In 1968 I was 16 and saw him at a hippy place on Miami Beach called Thee Image. Yardbirds had broken up and he introduced his new lead singer, MR. Rod Stewart!! Concert was $1.50, the house band was The Blues Image featuring Mike Pinera. Great times👍👍🤠 and just 3 months later saw Jimmie Page and Led Zepplin at Pirates World for $2.50!!!!
A whole new level, maybe…but not sure if it was for the better. I know Beck was awesome and he's gone so I'm probably gonna get dunked on but that outro lead was nowhere near in context. It felt like someone playing Skynyrd leads to Sad But True.
I met Jeff Beck at nyc's B.B. Kings in 2004........it was the 3rd anniv. of 9/11 ~ I presented him with my F.D.N.Y. dress coat....never forget 9/11 & Jeff beck!
It's so surreal to think that Jeff Beck is gone..... he always appeared to be in great shape and healthy looking and his passion for music was intact and strong as ever...the grim reaper is wielding a cursed scythe this year
@@RedroomStudios Because he had great impact on many many people around the world. People are just sad, thats why. Also, he was in super good shape and very healthy but died from something any 18 year old could've died from, what made his passing very surprising and "shocking" for that matter.
@@familymatters8707 what are you even talking about, this makes no grammatical sense whatsoever and there's no rhyme or rhythm so it isn't a poem, unless it was originally in latin or something. Anyways, you never truly understand the Bible until you read it in the original Klingon
Jeff Beck’s solo work always seemed to have a sense of danger to it. He was never going to rest on a series of cliches to get by. Always experimental, creative, high energy, and stunning listeners from stuff out of left field. Vai’s creativity and confidence, Hendrix’s edginess, and a totally unique approach to the right hand … that’s what Beck sounds like to me.
to be fair, blues is pretty easy to play on the fly (i sat in on this very song at a friend's show, and i'm a middling-at-best drummer). despite the simple structure (or maybe because of it?) blues is really hard to play WELL, and these two guitarists are true masters.
I have to admit at 50 years old, I’m not the biggest Jeff Beck fan in the world. I haven’t heard most of his stuff. But I can say the more I hear him; especially with old school stuff, the more I like him. Incredible guitar player.
May as well toss my 2 cents in here , Give Jeff's 1971 album Rough & Ready a listen , it came out before his timeless 1975 Blow By Blow album. A great record & some awesomely gifted players on it with him. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ch94vVz7BBw.html
Jeff Beck was put on this earth to interpret music into a single language the world could love and enjoy. He fulfilled his reason for existence. God has brought us many like Jeff, but their numbers are dwindling, sadly. To imagine a 71 year old person on stage jamming to a song he likely never heard before and performing it in perfect style. It is rare, very rare indeed! Thank You Jeff Beck for entertaining us all these years and May God Bless You for knowing what your life's purpose was. I hope you enjoyed the ride Brother!!!! I did!!!
WHAT??? Are you having a laugh? You really think Jeff Beck had never heard “La Grange” before??? Seriously 😳 ? That’s like thinking he’d never heard “Sgt Pepper” before!! Lol! “La Grange” is a stone cold Rock n Roll CLASSIC that had been around for over 40 years when this gig was recorded! Jeff Beck would’ve known ZZ’s albums inside out! Musicians like Beck are *soaked* in music! It’s not a hobby for them, it’s their life…their reason for existing!
@@familymatters8707 There’s no such thing as “Christ”. There never has been. It’s just a story written by Bronze Age peasants. The notion that some “creator” was that DUMB that all it could come up with to “save” (whatever that means!) humanity was to have a disgusting and barbaric human sacrifice, is demented and dim witted.
@Scott Crawford You can’t convince these idiot god botherers about anything. They’ve been brainwashed by a religious cult. You can lead a god botherer to facts, but you can’t make them think!
Rip Jeff Beck. He had good taste in music and in bass players. That girl kicked butt on that bass. Will miss you Jeff Beck. Glad he was able to jam with Jonny Depp. One of Johnny Depp's dreams.
@@drew-shourd That's a damned good call!! All three of them were really extra sweet souls. Not a one of them was anything near the cliché of arrogant rock stars.
I love jeff since i Was 15 non 69 i saw him 4 times in Paris i think jeff Was the english guitarist i had the chance to meeting him at his hôtel in Paris many years ago Hé was nice humble and simple i am so sad but his music Will be alive forever au revoir jeff tanks for your delightiful music
Took my step-daughter to see Jeff Beck and ZZ Top on this tour. After the show I told her in Jeff Beck she just saw the greatest guitar player, and that was the best show she would ever see.
Great to see them together and a surprise really because of the vast difference in their music, it was great to see Beck get back to straight ahead rock & roll. Thanks for the upload.
@@samuelluria4744 I understand that but what I meant was it was nice to see him play with a band like ZZ Top were the music is relatively simple and straight ahead. No need to get your panties in a knot.
The first time I heard Beck's Bolero within months of the release of his "Truth" album in the late 1960's I was hooked!! If you haven't heard that album give your self a real treat. Rod Stewart was the vocalist and he did Willie Dixon's "I Aint Superstitious" which is on that album. Check it out!!!
Bad Day....10/01/2023 Jeff Beck morreu....vendo ele e o Dustin Hill meu coração partido chora.... São dois dos meus heróis que partiram para o Rock n Roll Heaven....
When Dusty Hill and Billy Gibbons stop doing their performances to watch someone else play on stage... priceless. That's Jeff Beck. Rest in peace brother. See you soon.
alls part time guitar ,and adaptation fantastic JEFF,with others guys in jam 'S thats the best improv alls styles ..! r.i.p. JEFF you are legend forever➕🔥 jacky ...old french "fan" dustin are forever in paradise stars r.i.p Dustin 🔥
Great sadd loss jeff was a one off no one will sound like jeff again master of the whammy bar and volume control thanks jeff for all the years of listening to you rip jeff master one of the best
That solo of Jeffs...it was so wild! It was almost out of tune. ALMOST! He rode that fine line between not with the rest of the song and just crazy. It was genius
Wow! My friends and I have followed Jeff and went to his shows for many years. He’s always been amazing. Didn’t expect to see him rockin’ out with ZZ Top! What a treat!
Nice to see Beck synching well with Dusty and the Reverend, Billy Gibbons. I remember seeing a video of Jeff playing with SRV, and he just couldn't keep up. I expected more... and I still do when I see how well he masters LA Grange here.
Not many could keep up with SRV in what he did best . His singing was icing on the cake. But Jeff had a much wider range. He was a bit of a chameleon, but while his comfort zone and best was as untouchable as SRV’s was, he also did Funk and Jazz. It’s been said that your favorite guitarist’s favorite guitarist is probably Jeff Beck. That is quite a statement and likely true in most cases.
The BEST EVER GIRTAREST 🎸 ever Instrumentalist who has to be a Genius no one could hold a candle 🕯️ TO HIM May he rest in peace the most fantastic experience I ever seen in Concert at the water 💦 front in Boston like WOW Chill's up and down your SPINE
this is my all time fave ZZ Top number. As to the exalted master of the Strat (and the Tele & Les Paul and pretty much anything else with a pickup and six strings), Jeff Beck - my theory is that at some point, probably quite early on, the electric guitar became less of an instrument and more of an appendage to him. It was part of his body. I think of Hendrix in the same vein. There are others, but it was these two that built the foundation back in '65, '66 and '67.
Someone get a fire extinguisher I think Jeff's guitars about to go on fire rest in peace brother thank you for all the years you're doing us all up for love you music and unfortunately had to leave us but will see you again someday the 2000s I really hate them with a passion because they're taking all of our Legends so far I hate to say that but it's true rest in peace once see you at the Great gig in the sky 💕💕💕💕😘💕😘😘😘💕😘💕💕💕💕
