Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page-Beck's Bolero and Immigrant Song (R+R Hall of Fame)

[68SSCAM]

Pretty cool to see Jimmy using his Fender XII, he used it on Stairway to Heaven, When the Levee Breaks, The Song Remains the Same and Thank You on his studio recordings.

[Skullywv]

Oh my!! What a great jam. I hope Tal knows how fortunate she is...and how bleeding talented she is to have been included in this and to have earned the right to be included in this. Four amazing musicians these. No judgements or rankings, just kick-ass tuneage being delivered to us wannabees. Brilliant!!

[7PAULJ]

Jimmy looks like her just stepped in from office on his break to play and few chords

[winkhaynes]

2 of the very best. What more can one say.Awesome...........

[ACERAMGAD]

Captain Cavemannnnn!

[MerkinMuffly]

So Rush are bad musicians because they sound like the album, lol, people want to hear the songs they play on their albums, not some incoherent jamming crap. Just listen to Cream go into a 25 minute jam on spoonful, and you'll appreciate the short version.

[andreasegde]

@ JeffBeckAndFriends

"I hate [it] when people say Jimmy Page wrote this,played it and produced it!"

That is absolute rubbish, because the Wikipedia pages you link say absolutely nothing of the sort.

I quote: "After leaving the Yardbirds, Beck recorded the one-off "Beck's Bolero" (with Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones, Nicky Hopkins and Keith Moon)", and, "Jeff Beck and Page recorded "Beck's Bolero" in London's IBC Studios."

[andreasegde]

When Page comes on, it friggin' ROCKS!!!!!!! The ultimate RIFF!

[09riffraff]

Jimmy looks absolutely joyous to be playing with Jeff who gave him that

dragon telecaster 40 years previous

[MrMaestroHughes]

Damn!

[Ewerb7]

Great video! Beck was his usual self. Page didn't seem to do much but make an appearance. But as Jeff Beck said, "John McLaughlin is the greatest living guitarist."

[jimscottxxx]

@bassetc You are deaf



[hawkmebbs]

here is the original far superior version of Beck's Bolero

youtube.com/watch?v=nmO0OZC6If­k&feature=related

[salazarich]

Tal should have a white pick guard.

[Colstonewall]

@bassetc I'm not a big fan of Beck, but my GOD, how can you NOT see his talent on the guitar!!??

[LedWhisky69]

Beck and Page should do a world tour together with each one taking turns with playing the lead. How awesome would that be?

[metalfiend124]

@LedWhisky69 My thoughts exactly. Jimmy has said that he was more of a composer while Jeff was more of a lead soloist. This is a great example of this. Jimmy alone was enough for Led Zeppelin to make kick ass rock, imagine if Jeff was in the band also. Another pairing would have been if Eddie Van Halen allowed Randy Rhoads to join Van Halen, It would add rhythm guitar to all the Van Halen material, and each guy was capable of playing 10 minute solos. Not much of Quiet Riot was good.

[woshushe]

cool! me too, i want jimmy page to be my rhythm guitar!

(for the records, jeff beck can do like anything... don't make people laugh at you being smart with him ;)

[ziggystardust414]

ジミーペイジの出で立ちから見ると客席から来たんだね。向こうの­音楽界がうらやましい。

素晴らしいな。

[chefmichael1800]

THis would be a great interview ? for them. They have been close pal s since childhood. could they have colaborated at jimmys house or jeffs? Love them both

[cgravier]

that drummer looks like a gym teacher but he rocks....and that bass player is awesome.

Page's hair rules!

[rubbersoul553]

jimmys face at 1:53 is priceless

[dlforbes22]

Jimmy Page looks like George Washington,

Jeff Beck best ever !!

[caveman735]

@leonakita Jeff played lead on the entire tune, and wrote it, DUMBSHIT!

[caveman735]

Vinnie Culiatti on drums?

[caveman735]

@DzLsws Jeff played lead during the this entire tune. Jimmy played rythum.

[utkt91]

this comment has recieved too many negative votes

[dancingrizz]

Well that's how it's done now isn't it.

[spot1333]

this is so awesome, Jeff and Jimmy both sound sweet

[COMMUNISTPHILOSOPHY]

god thats horrid

[GZVidz]

Page and Beck, genius and virtuoso

[DirtyDeck]

jimmy page has such a mad head

[theo9952]

YIIIIIIIIIESSS !!!

[ACERAMGAD]

This is TREMENDOUS!!!

[caveman735]

Jeff Beck wrote the tune. Also Jeff is a better guitar player.

[caveman735]

Jeff Beck is the best guitar player alive!

[ACERAMGAD]

@caveman735 AMAZING cool as the Southern Ocean! ORCA LOVES BECK TUNA!

[0458FEO]

both awsome and seem to get along like class act musicians should.amazing vid.

[kmars21]

i whip this one out when i wanna see 2 gods lay it down like its meant to be

[derek47]

Tal is a great bassist in her own right; dampen down Jimi & Jeff and you'll hear what is an amazing contribution.

[92zvone]

jeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

[YoBroMan]

Beck is as creative as Hendrix, as accomplished as Clapton and as visionary as Page. However, without a charismatic lead singer, nobody ever got a chance to see it. That's why he never achieved the type of success as those three did...and because he bounced all over the place with his musical styles.

Yo!

[tuberez]

How come Beck doesn't look any older but Page does? what up wit dat?

[rocconrollo]

@DzLsws You are a bad flamer, don't worry, practice makes perfect. Train on religious videos for a while, it's a good start.

[jimmacalen]

jeff beck called jimmy page to play with him 'cause he doesn't have money to pay the copyright

[es345td]

WOW Beck just never gets enough credit that was incredible. You could tell they were having fun.

[Xpsychedelic60sX]

i like how he comes in all ON THAT STAGE AND TAKES MY BREATH AWAY, sexy beast with his immagrant song opening omfg..eargasm to the extreme

[jorgginhodib]

amazing beck wonderful it's he

[krispecker]

Jimmy Page would be the coolest Grandpa ever.

[MrDanAustin]

Awful nice of Jimmy to let Jeff have his moment in the sun there.

[caveman735]

@MrDanAustin You got it backward's pal.

[fanqueen]

Great performance, too bad the audio quality

[AsydicWaters]

Jesus this shit is rockin'!

[r00fecteau]

I would have like so much to see Jimi Page play an insane solo...but he only did background guitar chords that we dont ear that much anyway.

[BuzzCrumhunger]

... or is Pagey playing that old Fender XII strung with only 6 strings, Johnny Winter-style? Hard to tell from here.

[TosiekDegutis]

I bet that this chick on bass was wetting herself when these two Rock Giants were tearing the stage apart right in front of her, probably she went backstage to done fresh knickers before they kicked into next number :-)

[MrMateuspin]

Well, i dont think they are worried about who is the best

[whatthehellimbored]

this is spinal tap!

[philw19642002]

Can't think of any other two guitar players I would rather hear/see on the same stage at the same time.

[mrdomo1949]

Jimmy looked like an old business man that needed a drink....

[tdbsnr]

@mrdomo1949 Hahahahaha....!

[david8157]

@givijio Yes...but he hits it just right :)

[david8157]

fucking amazing

[nfrantnik]

just blown my mind 

[gr8cutter]

valentin you are a moron

[hadillin]

its good to see chihawks can type cause he cant hear

[metallitech]

Jimmy Page = Brian Peppers?

[valentin80]

Jeff... I hear some Terje Rypdal and some Camel (Snow Goose) in the first part :)

[xptwillie]

It's good to see Jimmy and Jeff having some fun on stage, after all the acrimony with the YBs. Two great guitarists.

[tiburondelaguaira1]

Arrechisimo.  Esta verdaderamente bueno. Excelente video, Excelente musica, Excelentes musicos.

[Brandon18valensi]

4:34 just check jimmy's face

[baysidesmart]

amazing

[cozinaz]

What seems to be lost on all of you is the insane bass player , a 19 year old girl ..... Tal is the real deal !

[hedANDalice]

@cozinaz If she is 25 now she couldnt be 19 then.

[DuhQuanNigstix]

Jeff Beck is my favorite guitar player of all time. Nobody plays quite like Jeff and his back-up band in this video is off the chain.

[chihawks2010]

Jimmy take over??

I have seen Zep 7 times and Beck 10 or so.

Beck would blow Page off the stage.

No comparison

[JeffBeckAndFriends]

@chihawks2010 I respect your opinion. I've seen Jeff 4 times and he always sounded exactly like his albums performances. Never saw Led Zeppelin but when they performed live on video after 1973 they sounded like s### .

[rtj489]

@JeffBeckAndFriends

Thats because Jimmy Page and other members of Led Zeppelin started using drugs heavily

[JeffBeckAndFriends]

@rtj489 I agree. If you ever saw their performance in Sweden and at the Royal Albert Hall they sound exactly like their LP's. But apparently that's a bad thing. LMAO !

[68SSCAM]

@JeffBeckAndFriends Royal Albert Hall sounds NOTHING like their LP's!!

[Nintendo129]

@JeffBeckAndFriends They didn't sounded like "shit" , that they dind't sound like you wanted is another thing

[JeffBeckAndFriends]

@Nintendo129 I swear. Zeppelin never sounded like there albums after 1973 and that's the truth. I love all the Led Zeppelin's albums but they had a hard recreating that sound "Live". Why that was still amazes me.

[TheAerosmith3]

@JeffBeckAndFriends Also look at the year. Page also recorded at least two guitars and sometimes four. He would play lead licks then switch to rhythm in shows. They're both great but dude concerts from 73 don't sound as good as todays because we have better technology

[JeffBeckAndFriends]

@caveman735 The Jeff Beck Group,Ten Years After and Led Zeppelin all jammed together on the same stage at the Singer Bowl in June 1969. Vanilla Fudge was there but never joined in on the jam. I guess the stage was too crowded.

[LedZepfilm]

@JeffBeckAndFriends Bullshit; Live Led Zeppelin was a whole different game than studio Led Zeppelin.

[contact1araya]

@LedZepfilm yeah they sort of sucked live......jimmi was constantly drunk literally drooling over his guitar....he was good but imagine if he was sober

[JeffBeckAndFriends]

@LedZepfilm Did you see Zeppelin at Live Aid? That was different. Down right horrible if you ask me. I rest my case.

[LedZepfilm]

@JeffBeckAndFriends Well, every band has their down day correct? For about 97% of the time, their concerts can beat the shit out of anything.

[JeffBeckAndFriends]

@LedZepfilm Yes they all have bad days but i just listened to Knebworth and some of the Ertegun tribute show. What do you think of those shows? Now let's get this straight. When i mean "live" i'm talking about video recordings only. Zeppelin from the Scandanavian tour in1969 and the Royal Albert Hall show were great. This is the last time i will say this, "Jeff Beck sounds just like his albums 97% of the time and there are 100's of hours of video footage that proves it". Done !

[LedZepfilm]

@JeffBeckAndFriends

Us Zep fans prefer something different live than studio. And Zeppelin reached that need. I respect and love Jeff Beck but Jimmy imho is better.

[doodleguitarist]

@JeffBeckAndFriends Because live should not sound like in the studio. If it does you are doing it wrong.

[JeffBeckAndFriends]

@doodleguitarist Are you saying that because Jeff Beck,Eric Clapton and Jimi Hendrix can perform live and sound just like their albums they didn't know what they were doing? I guess all the time that musicians spend tuning up is worthless according to your philosophy.

[68SSCAM]

@JeffBeckAndFriends I'm sorry, but if I am paying to go to a concert, I don't want to listen to what I can hear on a CD. Led Zeppelin were the best you could get live, that is why they were the greatest band in the world in the 70's... no-one could get near them. Anything you say can never change that, therefore you are wrong. Also at the Live Aid, that wasn't Led Zeppelin, anything after 1980 wasn't Led Zeppelin. No John Bonham means no Led Zeppelin, same goes to any member.

[TheGtflDead]

@JeffBeckAndFriends does a band need to sound like their album to be good? listen to any jazz artist, the grateful dead, phish, or any band with real musical substance. led zeppelin sounded amazing BECAUSE they didnt try to play exactly what you could here on a cd, they played LIVE music...idk about you but when i go to a concert, i wanna see some real live tunes, not the freakin album i've already heard 20 times. you're a dumbass, you know nothing about music. peace

[JeffBeckAndFriends]

@TheGtflDead The grateful dead were the most boring band ever !. And you claim to know music you dumb shit. If a band can't sound like their albums when they perform live then why make them. Boston is a perfect example of a band that could not sound like their albums and they died a quick death. Peace!

[92waystodeath]

@JeffBeckAndFriends led zeppelin couldn't sound exactly like they did on their albums becouse jimmy recorded albums with two guitars, and you cant play two guitars at the same time, he was playng alone, and it's stupid too play it the same way, they were making history on stage, i don't see the same thing jeff did...

[markmatteo]

@chihawks2010 fortunately for guys at this level and most musicians out there, that's not what it's about.

[diagreen]

@chihawks2010 i think u are a mere mortal next to these guys and beck would slap u

[catssniffs]

Beck is a monster man o man brings me back to the 60's and 70's. I knew we were hearing something great then and still holds up today

[zeppo20]

Amazing.

[crhymethinc]

WTF is Pagey playing? Looks like a Mustang with a Fender 12 string neck!

[TheDilligan]

Jeff beck was absolutely amazing here and it is nice to see jimmy page step in but not take over but I hate how I can't find any videos of jimmy page soloing when he's old... Why doesn't he solo anymore????

[thegas70]

@TheDilligan

check out some of the stuff he does with the black crowes, he does it man for sure!

[31dwa]

I just wanna reproduce with Tal

[kreed7167]

Who's the lady on bass?

[Comuna]

two guitar masters and two different hair colors too...

[tp10488]

HOLY SHIT!!! - that's about all I can say

[christophehersent]

y manque quand même Corbier , du jacky show . y z'ont flippé , y sont resté entre petits , pffff ...

[MoicanoLP]

Nice,even though the ice cream-man of my city has the same clothes of Jeff Beck

[mrcrowley951]

jimmy page REALLY loves what he is doing.....he's a GOD!!!!

[dennis4189]

Where's Eric? It would have been a true Yardbird reunion!

[michaelhayes67]

Just outstanding and Tal - well, what can you say!

[TomN2010]

I love how Jimmy didn't take over, he left the stage to JB...Now thats a musician!

[Cervicconstruction]

@TomN2010

My man he had no choice for to trade with Jeff would be folly and he knows it.

[gl797]

@TomN2010 Page is playing a 12 string so soloing would have been rather hard anyway. Beck's solo here is one of the best I've ever heard by anyone.

[radbradlee]

That was great! Wow!  You could tell the other musicians were totally geeked as well.

[pakorino1]

Outstanding !

[rogerkerr2010]

jeff beck fabulous

[corythesloppydrummer]

Too bad Moonie's not there.



[WegrennerX]

Too bad Beck's wearing a Jedi suit...

[tomfong292]

Christ. These guys rock so hard.

[ericjungleboy]

I always loved that bass player girl.

[ThePetemj]

Can remember listening to Beck's Bolero which was the B side to Hi Ho Silver Lining if I remember right.

[caveman735]

@ThePetemj  Also on his Truth album.

[DJKoppe0]

Jimmy wanted a solo ... : (

[TheRepub]

@supsailor1885 It's a Fender XII (12-string).

[rattlemuse100]

Obviously, the "rock n roll hall of fame" is the most rediculous entity in music, that being said, Jeff Beck was the best thing that ever happened to it!

[caveman735]

@rattlemuse100 Why is the rock and roll hall of fame "rediculous? Is it because you are not in it?

[MrTommySullivan]

This is rock and roll. Absolutely great.

[ThePitman3]

One of THEEE best riffs I've ever heard to the BONE!!!

[SuperAkebono]

need to get me some white boots. and a white outfit to go with it.

[roflmatt36]

what is Jimmy Page playing here ?

[supsailor1885]

Anybody know what make of Guitar Jimmy Page is playing?

[XTAZLA]

@supsailor1885 @supsailor1885 the guitar Jimmy Page is playing is a Fender Electric XII electric 12 string guitar like I owned in 1966. When I bought mine the retail price was $600 in 1966 and I got mine for $400. It has the hockey stick headstock and Jimmy Page used one for the 12 string part in the Led Zeppelin song Stairway to Heaven. I still have pictures of mine that I traded in for a Stevie Ray Vaughan signature Strat.

[supsailor1885]

Wasn't Jeffvery partial to Telecasters in his younger days?

[bladderfish]

These guys should know when to quit..sorry but its time..

[darnrabbits1]

Jeff Beck was lesser known than Eric Clapton and Jimi Page because he left commercial rock and roll behind in 1973 for good when he recorded Blow By Blow. Rock and Jazz fusion. The greatest rock promoter of the 60's and 70's in america,Bill Graham was interviewed late 70's by I think ABC news about his life. It was at Graham's home. In the background playing was songs from that album. All 3 Yardbird guitarists were great at their own takes on guitar. Everybody in their heydays loved them all.

[b44styreraug]

Are the levels running on red for this vid? It sounded like its peaking already

[1105Chance]

I see two friends and musical legends having a great time, not fans quibbling over technicalities that don't seem to concern either one of them. Just sayin'...

[ATolsma]

The look on Jimmy's face when Jeff did the "vocal" entry of the Immigrant Song on his guitar is priceless! A great mashup of two great songs by two of the greatest players ever (not to mention Tal, on bass).

[borba1984]

you know you are good when page is playing the rythm guitar to you

[rowdymax1]

Love Pagey's face at 1:54 when Beck rips into the Plant vocal on his Strat...priceless.

[rowdymax1]

looks like Jeff is wearing Vera Wang

[rmtmiller]

Jeff Beck is uber hot.

[Silvergoldstarfish]

Jimmy at his peak could outplay anyone

[JohnAllanification]

@Silvergoldstarfish agreed and with less effect's,helping him.

[RisingSon011]

@Silvergoldstarfish what I like about Page and Beck is not so much how they play as what they choose to play . They are tasteful players . I cant really even relate to either of them as far as what goes on iin their heads cuz they are gifted I suppose . I'd love to play that way but Id REALLY love to be able to think like they do when they play .

[deivyth1981]

YO ESPERO EN DIOS QUE SI LO HAGAN, MAS NO LO SE YO PUES SI LO SUPIERA YA ESTUVIERA EMOCIONADO MAS APARTE YA SE SUPIERA

[bunchacrapbunchashit]

I love Tal

[BarryWrightable]

God, I LOVE IT!

[14luisalonso]

Tal has time travelled. ¿does she know this?

[FlorenceGrin]

Anyone know who the bassist is?

[SekkeyWho]

@FlorenceGrin Tal Wilkenfeld

[univibe23]

Damm! At first I thought that was Bill Clinton that stepped out on the stage with Jeff.

[w9x7cv3vg6]

@univibe23 LOL WHOS BILL CLINTON

[PRYNCESSJO]

@w9x7cv3vg6 a President who had the economy flourishing, thats who.

[wavepainter]

@univibe23 Ridiculous. He looks nothing like Bill. That's LYNDON B. JOHNSON! Ha!:)

[goteyes1]

Always the consummate rocker- but beckers always had that rockstar class and pizzazz. He just exudes it. A rocker's rocker, if I may. Love that Pagey 'inducted' him, considering how they used to constantly rib each other in the old days, THANKS for the GREAT VID!!

[deivyth1981]

ESPERO VER EN LA INAUGURACION DE LOS JUEGOS OLIMPICOS DE LONDRES 2012 A LOS MEJORES GUITARRISTAS INGLESES TOCANDO EN VIVO, FELICIDADES POR DEJAR ESTA MUSICA QUE TRASCENDERA DURANTE DECADAS SALUDOS DESDE GUADALAJARA MEXICO

[vivelavidarocka]

@deivyth1981 Por que? Han dicho que van a hacerlo?

[ofriishz]

@BrainEatingApe

what the fuck do you care how he looks like?! listen to the music and shut up . the guy can where what he wants

[guitartornado]

if the bass player impresses you, great take up the bass. you'll never be a guitar player

[lorenv96311]

wow I am very impressed with the bass player and page. Still trying to understand the Beck fasanation.

[guitartornado]

@lorenv96311 just give up then. if you can't understand beck, maybe the clarinet is a better instrument for you.

[gladdingman]

@lorenv96311 I find it odd that Page and the bass player impressed you when Beck is rocking the lead.

[hitchinaride94]

@gladdingman beck could not rock lead if page had not written the immigrant song..but i do not want to say that beck does not rock..they both do!!

[mynamesnotwill]

i gotta know how jeff keeps that strat in tune with all of that trem use

[canadaguy2112ca]

I hate the talk of "who is better". If they each on their own or together inspired some and pleased others it's all good. It's all music and we're all here enjoying it.

[wichlinghausen]

it's famous tal wilkenfeld

[beregtishiny]

Who plays on bass guitar???

[ukraininoak]

These two together give me goose bumps !
