Yes Jeff Beck continued to improve all his life and took on even more and more and more all his life. Different sounds and techniques, different more impossible challenges! So many people say what he did was regarded as IMPOSSIBLE, but Jeff kept on GOING FORWARD AND BREAKING MORE AND MORE BARRIERS. So many people said he was such a giving person as well, to his fellow musicians; and to Women Musicians of Great Calibre. Thank you Jeff Beck. There are several experts in teaching and discussing guitar playing in detail and the different impossible achievements that Jeff Beck managed to do with his guitar, over and over again on CZcams. They make one gasp! Over and Over! Yes a Musical Giant!! Look them up! Cynthia Allen-McLaglen
Thanks for your comments, and yes I agree-- in my opinion, he's the greatest. I hope this episode made the case for Jeff as an all-time Master. Thanks for listening.
Live at Ronnie Scott's was a masterpiece, highlighting his skills and showed his willingness to share the stage with his support musicians. As Brian May said, Where Were You is possibly the greatest guitar tune of all time. I'm almost 72 years old and will spread Jeff's music to all who want to listen. The guitarists guitarist. Rest in peace Jeff😢
If someone asks me where to begin with Jeff's catalog, I usually suggest starting with "Live At Ronnie Scott's". A great selection of songs, and Jeff plays brilliantly throughout. Thanks for listening to the podcast!
Thanks for listening, and for your feedback. Coming from someone with your experience, the compliment is much appreciated. I saw Jeff 3 or 4 times, he was brilliant every time.
I’m grateful that you gave up a whole show…. like you say there is no way an appreciation or any understanding of his greatness could be conveyed in 20 mins. ❤ I think it’s a great analysis of how Jeff developed his style in stages and gives massive credit to how hard he worked in between styles to develop further and further with his guitar playing.
Thanks for your feedback, I'm glad you were happy with the episode. I hope the show helps other people to discover Jeff Beck, and encourage them to seek out his albums.
Thank you for this respectful review of Jeff Beck’s career. He, like Miles Davis, changed the way that music was played and appreciated by several generations of humans. He changed my life when I heard ‘Shapes of Things’ as a teenager on my transistor radio. Myself and many others became fascinated with his guitar playing in the mid to late 60’s and the continued evolution as a player throughout his life. Thanks again, much appreciated.
I’ve always loved Jeff Becks guitarplaying, he was so intelligent and talent. There was no limits for him, so he became really good in the Yardbirds! The rest is history for him. And he went further and further. He became a legend. Well I still miss him. - jon fisher
Jeff Beck's death hurt me as much as when either of my parents passed away. As a matter of fact, his being on the planet creating some of the most incredible guitar playing was strong heart felt medicine that helped me get thru the day/night. The last year has been extremely hard on me emotionally for various reasons. Listening to his music has been helpful, but it always reminds me that the #GOATGuitarist is no longer with us but his musical endeavors will always be here for his family, friends, & fans to enjoy. How much did I love Jeff Beck ? I got to see him 15 times perform his guitar artistry in concert. 1) "Fire Meets Fury" with Stevie Ray Vaughan in Chicago, Illinois 1989 2) 2 times with Santana in 3 days in Illinois & Wisconsin 1995 3) "Who Else" tour 2 times in Illinois 1999 4) "You Had It Coming" tour in Illinois 2001 5) Eric Clapton "Crossroads" shows in 2007 & 2010 in Bridgeview, Illinois 6) Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction in Cleveland,Ohio 2009 7) Intimate club tour at Park West, Chicago 2009 8) Les Paul tribute tour with Imelda May, Cadillac Theater, Chicago,Illinois 2011 9) Chicago Theater 2015 10) "Loud Hailer" Ravinia Highland Park, Illinois 2016 11) Performed half hour encore with Rod Stewart Hollywood Bowl, Hollywood, California 2019 12) "18" tour with Johnny Depp Phoenix, Arizona 2022 EVERY time I saw Jeff Beck perform in concert he never disappointed anyone in attendance. He only got better & better mastering the guitar as the years went on in his life. He was the only musician I have ever seen in my lifetime that propelled me to a place I had only experienced when seeing him live. I was so happy & joyful when I was in attendance watching/listening to him tear it up. I'll never be in that place again unfortunately. I am so grateful & lucky to have seen "The Guv'nor" of guitar as many times as I had. After he passed away, I was feeling every negative feeling anyone could experience. I was devastated. The one thing that helped get me thru the pain was all the famous guitarists & their comments about Jeff Beck. Basically EVERYBODY loved Jeff Beck as far as his guitar playing but also that he was such a kind & humble person to be around. The only thing he loved more than his self made cars & guitar collection was his widow Sandra. Jeff & Sandra were big time animal activists which is another reason why I respected them so much. I miss him. Always will. But I will never forget him or the extraordinary music he created with his guitar. He was "One of One". We will never see another guitarist like him in our lifetime. RIP Jeff Beck.
Thanks for your feedback & sharing your experience. The ARMS show is one of those concerts I would've loved to attend... I was just a little too young at the time. I did see Jeff 3 or 4 times and he was always great. Thanks for listening to the podcast!
WHO IS THE PERSON THAT IS SPEAKING ABOUT JEFF BECK IN THIS WONDERFUL DEPICTION OF HIS LIFE AND HIS ACHEIVEMENTS? ? THANK YOU--_SO MUCH!!! HE SHOULD HAVE BEEN KNIGHTED, HE MADE SO MANY INNOVATIONS AND USED AND SHOWED OFF SO MANY TALENTED MUSICIAN AND SINGERS! HE ALWAYS FORGOT ABOUT HIMSELF AND PROMOTED OTHERS, ESPECIALLY NEARER TO THE END OF HIS LIFE. EVEN AT 14 HE KNEW WHAT HE WANTED TO DO AND DISCOVERED FOR HIMSELF THROUGH HIS OWN EXPERIMENTATIONS. JEFF BECK WAS INFLUENCED BY HIS MOTHGER'S MUSIC AND THE RECORDS OF SERIOUS MUSIC THAT HE HEARD AT HOME BY LISTENING TO THE MUSIC HIS CONCERT PLAYING MOTHER HAD IN HER COLLECTION AND BY HIS UNCLE WHO PLAYED JAZZ IN HIS CAR! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS You tube record OF Jeff Becks write. WHO ARE YOU?????? WE AT SCHOOL WHEN JEFF BECK WAS 14 YEARS OLD AND WE WERE ALL 13, WERE VERY IMPRESSED WITH HIM AND KNEW ABOUT HIM WANTING TYO MAKE A GUITAR, BECAUSE HE CAME IN WITH BITS AND PIECES AND MADE HIS OWN GUITARS. WE FOLLOWED HIM ALL HIS LIFE TO SEE WHAT HE WOULD DO!!! CYNTHIA ALLEN-McLAGLEN.
Thank you for the feedback & kind words about this episode. I've been a Jeff Beck fan since the 70's, and my appreciation for his playing only increased over the years. If you liked this show, I'm sure you'll enjoy some of our other episodes. Please check them out on our website, lovethatsongpodcast.com. You can find out more about the show, and the host (that's me!) on the website.
I saw Jeff Beck 2 times, about 1974 Long Beach and 2005 Phoenix. He was my favorite since 1965 or so. In a class of his own, Jeff was a powehouse, gentleman and everywhere in between. Only Rory Gallegher shares a place of 2 concerts, in my lifetime. At least Jeff Beck didn't die from drugs or alcohol, of even speeding in a hot rod he built himself! I loved his music, mixes and bands!
You didnt mention Rough and Ready??? The debut album of The Jeff Beck Group. The "orange" album eas their second with Max Middleton and Cozy Powell, Bob Tench, etc
I didn't talk about "Rough & Ready" specifically, though I did mention that the Jeff Beck Group released 2 LP's in 1971 & 1972 (approximately 24 minutes into the podcast) and I played a clip from "Going Down" to give a taste from this period. I'm not personally a big fan of these 2 albums, so I didn't focus on them... the episode is already over an hour long-- our longest episode, most episodes clock in at 15-20 minutes-- so I just didn't have time to explore every album. Thanks for listening!
Thanks for your feedback. Yes, Jeff reunited briefly with Rod, Jeff appears on Rod's "Camouflage" album, and of course their version of "People Get Ready" is on Jeff's "Flash" album. But as I hinted at in the episode, in my opinion "Flash" is Jeff's weakest album, I'm not a fan of that one. So I kinda skipped over that period. Thank you for listening, I really appreciate it. Hope you hang in there for more episodes!
got it. Yeah. I recall buying the Flash album when it came out and thinking WTH? Love the show - in particular the Camera Eye breakdown. @@theiminlovewiththatsongpod1949

very necessary ( and welcome ) video ; thanks
Thank you for listening & your feedback!
One more thing about the Blow by Blow album.
Jeff used a guitar that was given to him by Seymour Duncan, dubbed as a Tele Gib.
I’ve always loved Jeff Becks guitarplaying, he was so intelligent and talent. There was no limits for him, so he became really good in the Yardbirds! The rest is history for him. And he went further and further. He became a legend. Well I still miss him. - jon fisher
Thanks for your comments, and I agree-- no guitarist pushed himself further like Jeff Beck. I miss him, too. Thanks for listening to the podcast.

Thank you for sharing this. He was one-of-a-kind. The greatest. I tied to do justice to his legend in this episode.
@theiminlovewiththatsongpod1949 You did right by Jeff Beck & his fans. Thank you for posting it.👍✌️🙂
Beautiful podcast. Beck was an amazing innovator. I saw Beck at the ARMS show at Madison Square Garden. It was quite the privilege.

Did i miss the discussion about Jeff's 80's work with Rod Stewart?
...and by the way, loved the episode. I consider my self a pretty big fan of Beck, but didn't know as much about his '60's band lineups. great job.
Thanks for your feedback. Yes, Jeff reunited briefly with Rod, Jeff appears on Rod's "Camouflage" album, and of course their version of "People Get Ready" is on Jeff's "Flash" album.
