Rest in Eternal Peace to the maestro Jeff Beck, there will never be another guitarist as versatile, skilled & laid back. One love to Jeff, shine on. 💎
Where is he buried?
@@christopherskipp1525 his home in England.
@@JimiJamesIII Thank you.
He was definitely the most innovative guitar player of our generation -
R.I.P. Jimmy Copley, one of the most underrated drummers ever.
Thanks. Didn't know who it was on drums but love it.
Thank you for identifying the drummer. Far too many video clips of bands fail to include identifying the band members.
Would you by chance also know the name of the bass player here?
@@gregparrott 👍🏻👍🏻 Bass player is Stephen Fields, nicknamed Stephen Amazing.
@@mjulio71 Thanks! Never heard that name. But Googling it shows he was indeed with the band 'Upp'.
I once went to watch my bass player bro-in-law play a midweek gig in a not very full working men’s club, in a sort of pick-up band. Turned out the keyboard player that evening was Andy Clark from this band, who wrote one of the tracks on Wired ( Upp apparently acted as a rehearsal band for that album). Nice fella. Sad to hear about the drummer. They were a very polished outfit all round.
Listening to vintage Jeff Beck in the middle of the night is such a vibe...
Same situation right now
Same hahaha
I heard the song “Blue Wind” from the Wired record around midnight once when I was taking a drive, stoned with the windows down. That was an experience I would recommend, if you can handle the stoned part.
Yes I was watching this at 3am it’s sounds so much more amazing in the middle of the night
3:48am works too@@bigdaddydaddy3203
RIP Jeff Beck.
What an amazing piece of music. Thank you for being in this world and touching the lives of many people with your great skills as a musician.
It’s very hard to accept that we are now living in a world without both Jeff Beck and BB King. Both have played a huge part in my life for over 50 years.
Me too!
Rock's GREATEST living guitarist!
I totally agree
I can't believe people are still blown out over Eddie Van Weiner. If they would listen to "I've Been Used" from Rough &Ready they would hear that Van Horseshits entire repertoire was taken from the end of that song. Not Clapton as he claimed.
JB never hid behind keyboards just because another talented guitarist was on the scene.
@@spunbearing65 Clapton IS 100 more times a rock player...besides, he IS a top top SINGER
spunbearing65 that’s my favorite album....Rough and Ready has always been my JB #1. PS your comment about EVH cracked me up, I’m sure JB couldn’t give a crap about him.
John Petruçci
Unfortunately, Steve is no longer with us. He died some time ago broke and lonely as l hear. We used to go all over to see UPP but my favorite memories of the band were at the Marquee in Wardour St, London. Steves real name was Stephen Feild, but Amazing was a more apt name l think. He used to amazes us all with his fantastic style. sadly missed but never forgotten.
Yes my friend, it was the ogwt that put me onto upp, I too went twice to the old marquee in wardour Street to see them, great band with some very good original tunes, I was never sure why they not more recognised,
Yep! Amazing! I was also at the marquee show!
boy.....could he play. We were lucky to have him as long as we did.
Rock in peace Jeff Beck, you're one of among the greatest guitarists that cannot replicate. Godspeed. Condolence to his beloved family and friends. The Jeff Beck Group forever!
The story of how JB met UPP members is by happenstance in a studio. Way cool sounds. Luv the Gibson. Still teary eyed…Rest in Power…I’ll never stop listening.
Coolest bass solo ever
Awesome group of musicians , the keyboard Clav sent this over the top with funky coolness,.Beck always hit the right notes at the right time , Rip Jeff .
Greatest living guitarist. The way he plays on Scatterbrain or Constipated duck. Sick! No one plays with more feel and technically none better. Sorry I'm a fender bender, the way he plays while using the bar and the controls simultaneously is insane! If he ever comes within 200 miles of you see him. You don't want to regret it.
R.I.P Jeff Beck. His playing is phenomenal, on this song.
Jeff Beck is definitely one of my favorite guitar players.
From playing on Stevie Wonder's greatest albums to bringing Funk and Jazz to his own albums the man's talent is mind blowing.
Jeff was well into his career by this time, and here he is playing without a whammy bar. Here he is at this point, already one of the most influential rock guitarists ever, and he still went on to develop one of the all time great whammy bar techniques ever in the history of the instrument.
Thank you for the music Jeff.
Heaven just got a lot more musical today. R.I.P.
beck is now IN his best era. his playing over the last 10-15 years increased by LEAPS & bounds! he has a control he never had before, & RARELY makes mistakes. he finally became the player capable of playing the music he heard & was inspired by back in '75. and at his age, this RARELY happens.
OMG! This band is bloody good! Amazing drummer(20 y/o here) and bass!
Simply amazing stuff. Funk meets jazz meets rock meets prog. A nice stew results from it all. Beck is an originator.
on my way to the store for some beer and cigs
Before i die...i need sex with this music as loud as possible.
@@albertocorral9851 me parece ok!
The music speaks for itself , people have a firm grasp, of the obvious eh ?
Beck is the best.... but he has improved so much when he went pickless and Fender 🇺🇸 strat 🎸🎶🎵👍❗
It doesn’t matter what guitar he plays, it’s all amazing.
I've seen them all in concert Clapton, page, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Santana, David gilmour, Billy gibbons, Steve Howe, Steve Hackett, Van Halen. I saw Jeff Beck on the blow-by-blow tour in St Pete Florida Beck is in a league of his own is truly untouchable.
Man, I wish we had had CZcams back in the day. I would have loved to see him playing this stuff then, but I'm glad it's surfaced now! Beck is a monster - maybe the best ever.
The seeds of "Blow by Blow" and the turning point in JB's career are right here. Funky fusion.
Spot on. A lot of BbB style licks and ideas found here.
The drummer is right on it!!
This Band was a Funk Monster! I worked at Epic/CBS in the 70’s at almost any other time it would have been big. The Company was behind Jeff whose career had benefited from BLOW BY BLOW AND WIRED this was released during that time period.I think we had two UPP Lps both pretty
good. We never emphasized Beck was the
Producer ( it was certainly mentioned) but not
to the degree necessary. In fact few probably had heard of the group even now. Beck was so humble and oriented toward the Music he was low key. He was such an anomaly it’s what drew his audiences and his career longevity.He in a way was like Bowie reinventing himself always a treat and interesting. He was the Worlds Best Guitarist /Period!
Even though he and Brian Wilson were very different
people listen to his version of “ Surfs Up” a melodic Masterpiece bettered by Beck as a Stylist. I have written so many Beck Tributes and each time I miss him more. He is reaching into Gods Guitar Custom Shop fine tuning his Axe and heading out on Tour. I can’t even imagine who will be backing this time.
Jeff (Rock In Peace)
This one hits hard. The master himself. RIP
Imagine this was 1974, Straight up talent!
I never get tired of this one. Never.
almost 50 years ago and he was 20 years ahead of his peers [ oh yeah guess what? he had none ] Fucking Awesome thanks for posting this
I think Tommy Bolin was playing similar stuff, and i think earlier thsn Jeff, whatever they are both guitarists you cant forget.
Beck is my favorite guitarist!
Holy shit the bassist is on 🔥
JB is such a masterful guitarist...simply brilliant!
These guys are AMAZING. Wish they stayed together and recorded more. Can’t beat Beck on a Les Paul. The good ole days have passed long time ago brothers.
Watching this clip ... I think I prefer Beck not use the whammy bar so much. In this clip, the playing is really exceptional. Love it!
Jeff , sure can paint a beautiful picture with that guitar!
Man that drummer is killing it
Rip Jeff, you were unique & extremely talented
Rather then relying on just blues influenced music. Jeff Beck and Carlos Santana brought something new to Rock music in 70s..
Friggin' amazing performance, one that too few have seen/heard.
Wish there was more of this stuff...wow
Videos like this show the evolution of Jeff Beck over the decades the best ever👍👏☝😙
What a truly wonderful performance from ALL of the band.
Great Band. Extremely underrated.
1974,the year I graduated High school. Blessed I am. Thanks Jeff ❤️
Did a gig with UPP back in 1973 - Didn't realise they had worked with Jeff Beck !!
I guess that would have been Dave Bunce playing guitar then?
What a drummer!
The great Jimmy Copley. I miss him dearly
Check out the late Jimmy Copley drumming with Tears for Fears during their "Seeds of Love" World Tour in 1990.
i have have seen him live 3 times, amazing, a living legend for sure!
Geoffrey Arnold «Jeff» Beck (Wallington, Gran Londres, 24 de junio de 1944 - 10 de enero de 2023) fue un guitarrista británico de rock y blues que tocó en varias bandas influyentes en las décadas de 1960 y 1970. Fue uno de los tres notables guitarristas que tocaron en The Yardbirds, siendo Eric Clapton y Jimmy Page los otros dos. Durante 25 años mantuvo una esporádica carrera en solitario. A pesar de no haber alcanzado nunca la proyección comercial de sus contemporáneos, Beck tuvo un gran reconocimiento, especialmente en la comunidad de guitarristas. Experimentó con el blues rock, el rockabilly, el heavy metal y el jazz fusión y en su última época había absorbido influencias del techno, creando una innovadora mezcla de música heavy metal y música electrónica.
Even if you never heard about him before this would be a "wait a minute" moment!
Rip Jeff 🖤🕊 legends last forever
JIMMY COPLEY,GREAT DRUMMER!!!!!!
Fantastic
Jeff, Jimmy and Pino from Copley's 'Slap My Hand' CD. czcams.com/video/aB6QzRs8baM/video.html
As a guitarist it would be a dream to play with him! Talk about being in the pocket...
My friend and mentor. I miss him dearly.
C,MON PEOPLE, IT,s JEFF BECK WITH ,WITH MASTER MUSICIANs ,TO SHOW PEOPLE WHAT REAL MUSIC SOUNDs LIKE, NOT THE CRAP THEY BRAINWASH YOUNG ONE,s TO LISTEN TO AND THINK IS GOOD MUSIC ,NOWADAYs.😎BOB
This shows you why Jeff Beck is a rock god.
The greatest ever - did his own thing. RIP Jeff
Rip Jeff Beck we will miss you
This is the same reel where do She's a Woman. That is mind-blowing too. Long live the king. My man.
Andy, Steve and Jimmy are a great support to Jeff here. Nice bass solo Steve. Such a shame you went so early.
I can't seem to find anything on Steve online, he's absolutely phenomenal! Do you know any sources I can look up?
@@emobassista His last name is Amazing.
Seriously, and rightly so.
@@emobassista en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upp_(band) Only a couple of lines about Steven here. 🙂
beck is perhaps one of the biggest influences on rock guitarists. ,moreso than hendrix, clapton, etc. his work on '71's 'Rough and Ready' album was a virtual encyclopedia of rock guitar tricks that have been commonplace since the 80s. I never knew this even though I grew up listening to 'wired' ,on EVH's (RIP) advice, i never listened to R+R until recently.
I'm still playing Rough&Ready Think I bought it in 73? Can't remember. I'm either stuck in a 70's time warp or it just doesn't date it's that good. I heard Jeff wasn't big on that body of work which included The Orange Album (not it's real title) with 'Highways'. ( how was that for a song)? We were blessed for music and can feel pretty satisfied with getting older
Це було чудово!!! Дякую.
Jimmy Copley the attitude is there. Driving player
I miss the Oxblood.He sounds great on his Strats but dont forget the Oxblood.
killer recording frequency separation superb thanks so much for the upload and quality cheers
Sad loss, R.I.P Jeff..
I really liked when Beck played Gibson,he sounds with more feeling
+Arturo Esquivias And with a pick also!
+rebstrat i like when he played the les p. the stratocaster.etc telecaster..who cares anyway
+Jesus Christ ,I agree with you,I think he was at the top of his art,he had more feeling,he is anyway a master,but his "feeling" has changed
Jesus Christ he used a tele with humbuckers for some tunes on that record
Just my view, not an argument!
Holy crap I've owned footage of this as a smudgy DVD copy of a 6th generation VHS, this is huge
SE Arden what is it called? Does he have a whole performance?
Gotta live it ,to love it ,amazing ditty
This was a rare gig where Jeff is using a Fender amp and what looks like an Ampeg instead of the 100 Watt Marshall amps he always uses. I mean the guy is so amazing he could pull tone out of anything.
Jeff Beck's dynamics just beyond cool ! Plus one of the limited times in that time era you see Jeff using a pick on top of a Les Paul . Nothing fancy little effects, pure talent and his band just rockin' the song away .
I saw him live yesterday, he played with his cream strat the whole show, then for the last song he got one of these oxblood LP's and did a Les Paul song... that was awesome!
Thanks for uploading this. It greatly demonstrates Jeff in his days when playing a Les Paul but also these fresh sounds of invented "Jazz Rock"!
Credit to the guitar players who turned up anyway and tried their very best.
What a sublime band!
I saw him go nuts on Todd Rundgren as we were all screaming get off the stage!! And Beck Beck!!! June 1972 Orpheum theater Boston Mass. When he was Rough and Ready!! Ha ha😎😎😎😎
I still have this album somewhere ...vastly underrated and unfortunately overlooked.
Re watched and saw the flash advising he recorded this with some fusion group. It's great and so are they.
Great period for Beck. When FUNK ruled (pre disco)
@BlueAttitudeMusic - As Page indicates in his induction speech for Jeff at the 2010 R+R Hall of Fame, 'Jeff leaves us mere mortals in the dust.' (I'm paraphrasing... ) But Page is right. Jeff keeps reaching for something new and different. As someone pointed out re: Jeff's performance at the 2010 Crossroads Festival. 'Who else but Jeff Beck could play a classical tune ('Nessun Dorma') at a blues festival and get a standing ovation from 30,000 people.' That tune (and 'Hammerhead') are on the DVD.
I was at both Illinois Crossroads shows & will be attending in Texas this year. All for the love of Jeff Beck...
R.I.P Jeff Beck
Thank you very much indeed for posting this.
Love Jeff on the Gibson. RIP Jam Master.
Wow! Thanks for this!! Long Live Jeff Beck.
R.I.P. Geoffrey Beck.
Priceless! Thanks for posting :)
Love the clean tone on that LP! Obvious shades of Blow by Blow.
This is proof that white boys can play funk just as good as anybody. There’s also Jazz rock in here too. Jeff Beck is the greatest guitarist of his generation. Better than Clapton and Page but sadly underrated and overlooked throughout the years.
Page and Clapton know that
Jeff is fucking killing it!!!! May be my favorite solo of his now!
"Blow by Blow" and "Wired"...chef d´oubre!!!!
May wee! (?)
He was recording Blow By Blow at that time with the legendary George Martin.Another poster mentioned this.If you check out JBG Orange album "Highways" has what happened on Blow By Blow all over it.
Steven Amazing truly is.
Does Jeff Beck have a music degree or did he ever had any kind of guitar lesson from a music teacher? Or is he purely self-taught & plays by ear? There is no way that JB plays this great without knowing music theory by heart. His licks, phrases, fills and feel are amazing.
He had a “mid” first lesson but the teacher told Jeff to go away because he wanted to play a genre the teacher refused to teach… such a narrow-minded person… however… Jeff trained himself along with Jimmy Page playing solos when they were teenagers…
I was dying to know about the les Paul he’s playing here loved that he bought instead of the the guy that order it I’d love to know where it is now rest on to sun amazing man Mr Jeff Beck
Jeff was always a phenomenal player.
Upp was a British rock-jazz fusion band, active in the 1970s. The group was originally going to be called 3 UPP, and consisted of Stephen Amazing, Andy Clark and Jim Copley. Wiki.
@chill66blog - Sorry, but Beck was doing the feedback thing prior to replacing Clapton in the Yardbirds ('65) and made good use of it during his tenure with that innovative band. Hendrix was a huge Beck fan before he even moved to London (and stardom), because Beck was - really - the only one moving the electric guitar forward. Clapton, Green and the rest - great as they were - were going backwards, to the Blues. Beck also did the Blues, but he was moving things forward...always.
I've heard the rumor that Beck ran and told Pete Townsend that there was some guy copying them...i.e......burning guitars, breaking stuff. ...at a club. Talking about Hendrix.....I don't see that as reciprocal camaraderie.
@cedricbeard The 'Green' is Peter Green, who died just the other day. Green took Clapton's place in John Mayall's Bluesbreakers when Eric quit to form Cream. After one album, 'A Hard Road' (with future Jeff Beck drummer Aynsley Dunbar, later with Zappa, Bowie, Journey, Starship, Whitesnake...) and some singles, Green quit Mayall to start Fleetwood Mac, enlisting two of his former Bluesbreakers bandmates and naming the band after them, just so they would have their own band should he ever leave. Check Mayall's 'The Supernatural' to hear Green, as well as Fleetwood Mac's 'Black Magic Woman' and 'Oh Well', two of Green's best-known compositions.) As for Beck being cheaper to hire than Townshend, yes. When 'Blow Up' producer approached Who manager Kit Lambert about featuring the band in his movie, Lambert asked Yardbirds manager Simon Napier-Bell how much he should ask for. Napier-Bell, with a plan in mind, said £10,000, which would have been a massive sum in '66. When Lambert was rejected, the Yardbirds were offered at a fraction of the price. And yes, the guitar smashing was in keeping with Antonio's reason to have the Who. And the guitar was a cheap Italian job because Jeff, quite rightly, wasn't going to smash his Les Paul. As for Hendrix, yes, they all thought Jimi was on another level. Townshend had less to be concerned about, but for Clapton and Beck in particular, the local hotshots, the arrival of Hendrix was a serious blow to their ego and confidence. Beck seemingly took the matter particularly hard. Personally, I consider Beck to be a far more accomplished and creative guitarist, however, as he noted, Jimi was the 'whole package'...writer, singer, player, showman...
Wayne Blanchard I love finding well written historical bits and pieces of the incest of Rock. Thanks.
Agree!
He so damn cool
FANTASTIC!!!👍👍👍👍👍
RIP Jeff Beck 😔
