Jeff was interviewed in a Guitar World or Player mag about the slide solo in Blaze of Glory and the guy was a amazed when his reply was that there's no slide in the solo. Fender had the then new roller nut system with locking nut and that stability return spring on the trem. It's an absolutely stunning guitar solo.
You might like Michael lee firkins who does similar effects (obviously came out much after jeff) in albums like chapter eleven- he is a mixture of country, blue, rock and jazz 😬 so the songs do change throughout the albums. Another underrated guitarist ☹️
@@lizaltman1200That was quite aggressive. I haven’t heard him do much of that slide type whammy bar stuff. Do you have any examples? It seems to me like they have similar tones and use a lot of minor pentatonics (in a not cliche kind of way), but their phrasing and techniques seem very different.
How could anyone dislike THIS??? Good God. . .one vibrato bar/bent note from Beck sends shivers in me. I love all kinds of guitarists. But Beck really is the holy one.
They must be better players .. for the idiots, this isn’t “likes” for taste, it’s about talent .. to not appreciate that in JB is a sign of musical ignorance. 🤷🏻♂️
I’ve been playing guitar for almost 40 years, and after watching Jeff’s technique closely here, I can confidently say I’m every bit as good as he is at rolling smokes.
This is one of my top 3 favorite tracks of all time. If anybody reading this is wondering what the big deal about Jeff Beck's playing is, consider this - every note he plays is pitch perfect. Not great. Not excellent. But bone-chillingly perfect. What is so cool about this video, is it shows Jeff Beck trying to give them what they want for THEIR album - not his. He's open to any feedback trying to deliver the goods for a song he didn't write. I doubt he even heard the song before stepping into that studio. Basically, with Bon Jovi's feedback, he beat the solo into submission and gave them what was destined to be on that recording. This is really a great video. If there are any more from these sessions, I would love to see them.
He indeed have perfect pitch by this time if not born with it . I WOULD LOVE TO KNOW HOW HIS EFFECTS WERE SET UP DURING this session..I heard "rat " so I assumed that pedal was still in play . Thank you for posting this
This is probably one of the coolest Beck videos I’ve watched! Casually rolls a a cig. Telling him the to put the Rat back. Just great stuff. RIP Jeff Beck
RIP Jeff Beck! 78 years old and with new studio recordings he made just last year with Ozzy and Johnny Depp. goin' down in a blaze of glory, true legend!
For me, the greatest guitarist of all time...... period. And yes I like my Yngwies and my Vais, Holdsworths and whatever..... but only one rules them all in my book, and that's Jeff...... he's 78 already, I just hope I am able to catch him in concert once more....
I’m with you, I love those guys too, especially Holdsworth. But there’s just something about Jeff. He might not have the technical chops as the other guys but he just oozes pure musical expression.
I always love to hear Jeff's take on a great tune. Inevitably, he somehow improves it. His duet with Stanley Clark and school days is a prime example. Stanley loved it!
R.I.P Jeff Beck: best slide player without a slide..awsome! Is there a story behind that? Man,that album is Jon Bon Jovi's musical masterpiece...He has never reached that level again
😭😭😭 Jeff Beck in guitar hero heaven RIP I had the immense chance to see him once in concert, and especially to have discovered his music, his unique playing. Jeff Beck you were by far my favorite living guitarist. You will always be by my side. RIP ❤😭❤😭❤😭
This video is amazing! Just shows how cool and talented Mr. Beck is always been. Love the sound, love the takes just pouring down with great solos...to me? I would have been blown away by the first take let alone the second and the........ RIP my beautiful friend and thank you. X
The beautiful seafoam green strat. With a really powerful tone and sustain. This is so cool, just casual in the control room. We love you so much Jeff. Thanks eternally for your incredible music 🎶 and stellar guitar 🎸 playing. Well done mate.🙏 🕉
OMG this is priceless...beautiful....timeless, and just plain one of the coolest things I've seen on youtube . Where has this been hiding for 7 years ??
How is one player so good and so effortless in such a challenging medium as the electric guitar? Impossibly good, RIP Jeff Beck. I was lucky enough to catch one of his final shows in LA, and it was like a cathedral performance by the Pope for a devoted mass - all there to get dimensionally shifted by otherworldly sounds, which we all did. Left floating on a cloud. There's only been a few guitar players that can leave you in that state of mind and spirit live: Hendrix, Beck, and EVH//SRV tie at 3rd.
When Guitarists watch Jeff Beck play, ALL Guitarists, even the very best of the best, their jaws drop and they listen and stare in amazement, knowing that they're in the presence of The One True God!
Sad that we can't get a better quality video on this, especially now that he's gone. I am a tone deaf and his play on the tone just touch my soul to the very core.
Jeff Beck is / was (Rip) on another level. The sound engineer's job is to capture his genius on tape not to give direction to a guitar genius about something he (the engineer) cant play himself.
Wow so awesome! *EDIT* I left a comment years ago about this being awesome. Time has brought back here & I still get lost in his playing. Just seriously amazing.
Great video! Jeff Beck is so spontaneous, so fluid, he just goes through a solo without any difficulty at all, doing his unique style with the tremolo bar. Thanks for uploading this video, will definitely watch again d again. 👍
"What he did with his thumb and and his fingers would blow your mind" Bon Jovi on the Master of the craft, the Legend, the GOAT. The squeeling solo at about 4:40 blows my mind. I´ve watched about 50 times already and plan to watch again forever. Just fucking wow. Thanks for uploading
If I'm not mistaken, Bon Jovi said this was a rental guitar that Beck just tuned up and played. He was in complete awe, and realized he was in the presence of a different kind of human.
😎👍✝️Rest easy Jeff, we definitely will miss you. Thank you for sharing your talents with this world! Have fun jammimg with Jimi, Moonie, Bonzo, Jaco, Cozy, Peart, etc...
4 different solos in a row. Man what a Master guitarist Jeff Beck is. Can you get more videos of the recordings of Jeff's guitar. He played almost all the solos in Young Guns II.
My favourite Jeff Beck era is the late 70s/early 80s BUT the way he refreshed his playing style and image following that period is monumental!! Ditching the pick, replicating the slide using the whammy bar, dedicating himself to using a Pro Co Rat with more filter, signature strat, t-shirt and jeans and loads of guest studio appearances. I loved his fusion stuff but he had to move away from that to enter his next phase of reinvention. He's more than "God".
Da pra entender porquê ele foi Simplesmente o cara que criou e/ou ajudou a definir o Som do Instrumento do Rock, que apontou o som Blues - Rock, pra uma pegada mais pesada. Um dos Maiores de Todos os Tempos, Pioneiro da Guitar, junto com Page, Hendrix.
Can’t say the producer is very inspiring. Maybe in the context of being there it would make more sense but Beck was playing absolutely brilliant parts and just getting silence after or comments on what pedals to use.
Jeff's signature trem bar control to make it sound like he's playing a slide. Unmatched genius.
Lol I keep looking for the slide. I'm like, "It's grainy video. And my eyes suck. There's the slide! Wait. No there's not. Wait...."
Jeff was interviewed in a Guitar World or Player mag about the slide solo in Blaze of Glory and the guy was a amazed when his reply was that there's no slide in the solo.

In 12 minutes we had a full library of ingenious licks for the next 40 years...
No one else in the world can sound like him... what a genius
No one. I’ve never heard anyone close
@defjam1310 you're both wrong. Eric Johnson has a similar thing. Similar. But worth mentioning. You guys know nothing
They know enough. You on the other hand sound ignorant and arrogant.
@@lizaltman1200
Not even close to the same style. Totally different planet. Wow. 🤦

Jeff Beck and Jon Bon Jovi together at that time was a pure stroke of musical genius and badassery.

just into this. his interpretation is amazingly unique
Envy, just envy.

To p gate keepers like you the heck off
That may be the most amazing tone that I have ever heard.
That's a small solidstate Marshall he brought in.
@@dodjiegarcia2320 Beck + that amp is auditory nirvana to my ears
@@dodjiegarcia2320 Actually the sound guy mentioned that they were playing through a Soldano during the video.
Soldano amp and a Proco RAT pedal.
Its ethereal, like from another planet.. utterly astounding
I’ve been playing guitar for almost 40 years, and after watching Jeff’s technique closely here, I can confidently say I’m every bit as good as he is at rolling smokes.
MASTER CLASS IN STUDIO WORK.
NO EGO, JUST MUSIC.
GOOD MUSIC....
Singular sound. Noone like him.Polite, and humble. RIP.

My word. Tone. He is so confident. He must have perfect pitch.
Only the master knows how to play with its puppet
He indeed have perfect pitch by this time if not born with it . I WOULD LOVE TO KNOW HOW HIS EFFECTS WERE SET UP DURING this session..I heard "rat " so I assumed that pedal was still in play . Thank you for posting this
@@swamisMotelBand1 No,.. and you don't get it if you don't have it. It doesn't work that way.
There's stories that he didn't even tune thru the night. He could just get everything to pitch that well..
Guy Pratt tells a story about Jeff playing on a Roger Waters record with a Strat that was completely out of tune for anyone else, but he made it work.
This is probably one of the coolest Beck videos I’ve watched! Casually rolls a a cig. Telling him the to put the Rat back. Just great stuff. RIP Jeff Beck
No doubt. His demeanor in this studio session is like a well focused slinky.
When does the rat bit happen? Very curious about this rig.
@@Diax1324 At around 3:20 producer says something about the Rat not working, then at 6:08 Beck asks to put the Rat back on.
Basically "Jeff could you do it over....." COMICAL!!!
That's a joint😅
RIP Jeff Beck! 78 years old and with new studio recordings he made just last year with Ozzy and Johnny Depp. goin' down in a blaze of glory, true legend!
No one ever brought Jeff in as a hired gun and regretted it. He will find the magic. Employing some of his menacing Big Block tones here.

There's a few out there still Raving about Hendrix..Why bother when we're lucky enough to have JEFF BECK.
@@allthingsclassicrock Well Mate he did Have..Very Sad News.
@@mickchilly1112 agreed. I’m heartbroken over the recent news…
Beck is the MAN. ALWAYS HAS BEEN, ALWAYS WILL BE.
I always love to hear Jeff's take on a great tune. Inevitably, he somehow improves it. His duet with Stanley Clark and school days is a prime example. Stanley loved it!
After over 30 years still amazing sound. You are one in one Jeff.
This is a great historical archive of the master at work in a studio session. Pure genius. There exists very little of this.
Rest in Peace, Jeff Beck.
R.I.P Jeff Beck: best slide player without a slide..awsome! Is there a story behind that? Man,that album is Jon Bon Jovi's musical masterpiece...He has never reached that level again
Right - so now I need to decide where to build the fire with all my guitars and amps. Lord have mercy, this man can play!
Omg I need a complete session of the whole album
I love this……… you can hear his genius figuring out what he is going to play
Jeff Beck, stratospherical level, always!
Just kills me how he communicates melody as if he’s playing with a slide. A true genius! RIP.
Adiós Jeff, en 2009 tu música me sacó de la depresión. Gracias.
I worked with him a couple of times around this time, jaw dropping playing, and up close absolutely mesmerising.
He is so special!
A true original pioneer. Wow.
So calm and cool, no ego, no poses. Politely shredding. Richie was crying 😂
Or maybe music is not a competition and Richie was quite able to appreciate it as such …
They’re in the studio. And please don’t use “shredding” in reference to Jeff Beck. He’s beyond such nonsense.
@@spacejockey4746 amen brother!
Nah, Richie was simply nodding in awe and appreciation.
God Almighty!!!!
Sorry, would have commented earlier, but was picking my jaw up off the floor! Wow, just wow! That trem and the tone!
Genius at work..RIP Jeff Beck, your music lives on, always!!! Thank you!
Jeff Beck (R.I.P.), today in 2023 give us a large carrera about excellent music work.
Thank's Jeff for you legacy!!!
🤩 I still live for this💥 Behind the scenes of being in The Studio's 📝🎶 Jeff Beck Lives in Our Hearts and Minds Forever🌟💎🪞👗👠📿💄🌹🌉❤️♾️
What a tone. Sounds like a harmonica
That's a really bizarre but accurate observation 👌
Jeff is from a different planet.
😭😭😭

Watching Beck during the creative process was a delight ! Thanks for this !

Rest In Powe Legend 😢🥀
Jeff Beck a god given talent for all to be hold and love . May he rest in peace an jam forever in heaven
not jamming in heaven. laying in a box in the ground. Real
God bless Jeff Beck!!!
Jon should consider himself lucky that a musician of Beck’s caliber was willing to play.🇺🇸
I’m sure he does. Jon said on the Howard Stern Show that Beck was the absolute best guitar player he’d ever heard.
Wow so awesome!
*EDIT*
I left a comment years ago about this being awesome. Time has brought back here & I still get lost in his playing. Just seriously amazing.
So many of these takes were fucking amazing
Amazing!!!!!!best guitar the world!!!!!!
A pair of A800's synced up and lighting dimmer buzz all over the single coils.....now that's a real studio environment! 🙂
Beck was phenomenal. One of a kind
Very shrewd move to enlist Beck for that album---his guitar work made some of those cuts truly memorable.
Super cool sound super awesome.. this will never get old
Great video! Jeff Beck is so spontaneous, so fluid, he just goes through a solo without any difficulty at all, doing his unique style with the tremolo bar. Thanks for uploading this video, will definitely watch again d again. 👍

Every note he plays is unmistakably 'Beck'.
I can't believe he plays ALL of that stuff with his thumb over the neck. He's one of *those* guys. #IYKYK
I am devastated, heartbroken
Beck at his peak. Astounding. 👍🏼🎸
4 different solos in a row. Man what a Master guitarist Jeff Beck is. Can you get more videos of the recordings of Jeff's guitar. He played almost all the solos in Young Guns II.

The sound of god.
Jeff even rolled his own cigarettes. Everything he does is cool.
it was cigarette?
@@cifey I think so. Packing looked like loose tobacco.
Quite literally awe inspiring!
beck came from other planet
The engineer/producer had the AUDACITY to take out Jeff's Rat pedal. Glad Jeff had him put it back in... and then rolled a Doobie. The one and only!
The engineer was being a bit of a dark cloud. You could tell when he hooked it back up when asked to, he was being a little b*tch.
@@TheNewFallOfficial Agreed, I was amazed how patient Jeff was with him.
At the end I just expected him to say: This one's called "lick my love pump"
I'm glad I'm not the only one who sees the similarity
@@Pstaines439 Well, his solos are his trademark...
I seen this so much. It's a gold mine. Looks like my old vhs boot lol.
The lord!
This is friggen awesome! ❤🔥🤘
I shouldn’t have sold my Fender Jeff Beck with Laces back in the 90’s. I remember how cool the neck is.
yeah...I remember those. the neck was as big as a baseball bat. lol But they were awesome...I had one at one point too.
Heaven's gonna be a louder place that's for sure...
