I actually hadnt't looked at anybody elses thoughts until the music was over. I will say it. Clapton ,Page, and Beck were all in the Yardbirds, ( not entirely all together) .Beck has shined and perserverered and bunched the lights out throughout these years. Remember his TRUTH album?
To be honest, this Jeff Beck guy is every bit as great as Hendrix. Especially in one very important regard Jed, HIS SENSE OF HUMOR! Hendrix was the only other great who didn't take himself so seriously (ARE you reading this Eric the model car guy, he who believes his own B.S. P.R., to the point that those who can't possible "tell the difference" think you're God?) Oh puleeeze! At least this fellow's truly versatile, these days doing Les Paul & Mary Ford's GREAT stuff with Imelda.
There have been rock guitarist since this recording who "seem" to play better, but I'd bet anything that I'd find it easier to imitate one of their (mostly over-dubbed and mult-edited, effects-laden) solos, than this live, onstage, bare bones solo!
i am 28yrs old and i remember my dad used to play this on his bass all the time. i always loved this song and it is tied to one of my favorite memories as a kid!
@PGROSYE02 no, licks were being invented and created by all the bands in the 70s. it was a full tilt boogie. new territory, mind altering drugs and fabulous music, that obviously hasn't died. true art never dies.
To me music is subjective so when I see arguments over who is better I find very disturbing. If I could play half as good as any known great guitarist I would be one really fucking happy camper!
This live is so awesome. It's been a long time since a rock n' roll live didn't thrilled and impressed me that much. One of the best rock concerts I've ever heard along with royal albert hall from Led Zep, Band of Gypsys and Woodstock from Hendrix and Live in Japan from deep purple. I really wonder why it's so underated. The only blame is the singing (bogert is not as good on vocals that he is on bass...) but the rest is perfect. The trio grooves so much, it's impressive
I don't know which is the least informed wannabee musician between asmorgan88 or Cream234. You two goobers have done much good however in displaying that it takes more than ears to express ignorant opinions about masters such as Jimi and Jeff. Opinions worth discussing require an intellect behind them so you both = EPIC FAIL! I guess you two didn’t get enough attention from mommy and daddy?
Never heard this before. Great imagination. Great power trio, always liked that type of band, Jeff is, was, and always will be a flat out monster. Tim and Carmine are too...Thanks for posting this.
one of jeffs most loved cuts..a burnin' tribute to chuck berrys' "chucks boogie".
back in '67' i drove down to cincinnati to hear john mayall...as i stood in line i could hear the killer sound of jeffs boogie...i thought, wow....becks playin' with mayall..
it made sense to me at the time because all the great guitar players from england had played
Truth took a while to grow on me too, and I love it. If you want to hear the best blues a couple of white guys ever played then check out Beck and Stewart.
First there was Jimi Hendrix and now there is Jeff Beck - the most creative and original guitarist on planet Earth. Still not sure, then listen to Jeff's new CD 'Emotion and Commotion'. Wow!
Hendrix decided to first experiment with feedback, fuzztone, and distortion after hearing Beck's playing in The Yardbirds. It's very well documented...
@asmorgan88 Thank You! There are video clips of Beck in 1965 doing things that nobody else was doing...Hendrix emulated Beck,not vice versa. This "Jimi did it first" crowd annoy me
@asmorgan88 Agree again. Take away the stage showmanship or studio effects and Hendrix comes back to the pack. As far as acoustic goes..all you need to know is that Dave Mason played the acoustic part on "Watchtower", not Jimi.
If you've ever seen his performance of "Wild Thing" at the Monterey Pop Festival, you know exactly why, and how much, he sucks.
Seriously - every band from the 60's, and beyond, took something from Jeff Beck. I'm not saying it's a bad thing - but, no...it wasn't Hendrix, or Page, or fucking Pete Townshend, or Clapton that made that thick, heavy, psychedelic, buzzsaw, fuzztone...it was Jeff Beck...and it was a good 2-3 years before EVERYONE was going for that sound.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
@asmorgan88 Im sorry, but your post about Jimi's performance at the Monty pop Festival has got to be one of the most retarded statements I have ever read. It's obvious you deeply dislike Jimi for whatever reason, but to insult the man like that? If you saw that performance, you would know that it was famous because of what he did with his guitar at the end. Nobody had ever seen that before at the time and to tell me that Hendrix sucks, is probably the most ignorant statement I have ever seen.
@asmorgan88 No. You are wrong. Hendrix doesn't suck...if anything he is the greatest guitarist to ever live and he only lived for 27 years. Jeff Beck at 27 years old was hardly the guitarist that Hendrix was. Even Beck has mentioned that he was intimidated by Hendrix and that Jimi was the best HANDS DOWN!!! Just because Jeff Beck is your fav doesn't mean that he is the best or that Hendrix sucks. Beck is AMAZING!!! So is Jimi and E.C. and all the other greats. Just enjoy their music.
And Jimi thought that Phil Keaggy was the best. It's a silly argument for anyone to engage in. Why don't we all chill a bit and just realize the incredible variety of amazing players, living or dead, we have to enjoy.
@Marc329 Go talk to asmorgan88 about it. He's the one disrespecting Jimi Hendrix. If you would have read and understood my comment you wouldn't have sent me such a stupid message. ASMORGAN88 is a fucking tool. I really don't know what asmorgan88 wants from Jimi to make him realize that he is insanely talented. Any real guitarist who actually gets paid to play the guitar for a living would side with me. It's the little kids that just play in their bedrooms that say stupid shit like that.
@asmorgan88 Yeah, the same could be said about 'The Edge' from U2. Even he admitted that without all that equipment he doesn't sound any good. Well, infact nobody does, unless you're an acoustic guitar player, in which case you don't need much or anything. However, I think it's more the influence and the 'importance' of Jimi Hendrix that people seem to get confused with that he is an outstanding player. He is an outstanding player, in fact he's phenomenal, alien, but people just over exxagerate.
I don't think I've ever heard a song by U2, but I guess I agree with the guy in the sense that the equipment used by bands certainly enhances the quality of sound by quite a lot...you ever hear Stevie Ray Vaughn play acoustic? It's fucking terrible.
I don't really have anything to say in the argument to Hendrix other than he wasn't the "pioneer" that he's perceived to be...can't argue with his playing, though I think Beck is a hell of a lot better.
@asmorgan88 Yeah, I've heard Stevie play acoustic, it's alright, he's not the most amazing acoustic player, but he gets the feeling across. No I agree, I don't think Hendrix was the pioneer that he's..well.perceived to be anyway. Beck is, truly the most astonishing guitarist I have ever experienced. He doesn't feel like 66 to me, he feels 20 odd! Ronnie Scotts in soho London 2007, right up close, literally feet away from him and the amps. Bloody amazing!!!! That was the best moment of my life.
I don't know much by Jeff Beck...I know he barely has any original material, though.
I just picked up "Truth" the other day, & it wasn't really my bag at first, but it's definitely grown on me. I fucking love it now. I knew a bunch of "Rod the Mod" stuff, but never heard his work with The Faces or Jeff Beck Group - his random "Now listen" s, sent it over the top for me. Just ace.
I can't believe he's almost fucking 70 - holy fuck.
@MichaelPalinFan2008 Jeff Beck would totally disagree with you. In fact he would laugh at you in your face for saying the stupid things you've said about Hendrix. The man you are blindly defending disagrees with everything you have said...please understand this so you don't look like such a douchebag elitist. Don't think Jimi can play acoustic? "Hear my train a comin" is a song he played on a 12 string acoustic and if you think that is a weak performance then you can go to hell.
@kylekylelewis So what Jeff Beck disagrees with me? Isn't life all about opinions? I don't care what he thinks or agrees and disagrees with me, he's his own person and so am I. Oh I think Hendrix is a pioneer.....the most important and greatest pioneer to guitar ever....just he's exaggerated....like Cheryl Cole who is the 'nation's sweetheart', when yes, she is a brilliant singer and artist, but just she's over publicised so people think she's more amazing than she is EVEN THOUGH SHE IS AMAZING
@MichaelPalinFan2008 Jeff Beck would totally disagree with you. In fact he would laugh at you in your face for saying the stupid things you've said about Hendrix.

"Hear my train a comin" is a song he played on a 12 string acoustic and if you think that is a weak performance then you can go to hell.
@kylekylelewis For people who can read properly....unlike yourself, I said....''pioneer perceived to be'', i.e. exaggerated. Hendrix, is if not one of the most important, THE most important, 'influential', and best guitarists that has ever lived....and whilst being incredibly insanely god like at what he does, which no one could ever do, he is rightly to been seen that way....only people want to see more than what is. I'm not putting Hendrix down in any way, I'm simply saying he's exaggerated
@MichaelPalinFan2008 Hey Mike I think Jeff got as good as he is partly due to how JIMI put a fire in to the Brit's and Beck has come out way ahead of the game as far as inventivness,and seeing as to how this is a few years after JIMI died,they were sort of kindred souls in a way....Love them both !!
@kylekylelewis By the way, it was Stevie who I was saying about can't play acoustic that good....please read with care. Yes I do think Jimi is a good acoustic player. In all honesty....being a 'good' guitar player.......there is no such thing. In terms of technicality and being able to pull off the sounds 'perfectly', and getting the feel across yeah, but otherwise no. There is SO many things that make a guitar player good. In the end it's all about opinions, who you like, and you don't.

@asmorgan88 First you put down Jimi and then you say SRV is fucking terrible? I dont argue that who influenced who and who started first crap because it's retarded, but Jimi took what he and his contemporarys were doing and launched it into another statosphere. Jimi deserves all the credit he receives and so does Beck. Although Beck was truly great at the start of his career, he was terribly inconsistent and really made a mistake when he left his hard rocking blues and went away from his roots.
I never said SRV was terrible...I did however say that I heard him do an acoustic set & it was horrid.
I love how you're bashing on me for my opinion, yet you clearly state yours' in that Beck was inconsistent & made a mistake by moving away from his roots.
Great - Jimi Hendrix was a guitarist & did some great things with his ability to properly use effects, pedals, & distortion, while other guitarists perfected their craft as GUITARISTS, not fucking showmen or gimmicky acts.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
@asmorgan88 Yeah well, nobody said he was a great acoustic guitarist and I dont think anyone went to see him in concert to play the acoustic guitar, although Life By the Drop was an excellent acoustic piece. Beck was inconsistent, sorry. After Truth, he never got that gritty and raw ever again. Plus, Hendrix had 10x the originality than Beck did. Dont get me wrong bro, I fucking love Beck, I even posted a song of his, but Hendrix kills him on so many levels.
To say that Beck was inconsistent or lacking originality is a farce.
Inconsistent in the sense that he would, more or less, disappear for a few years, & then come out with something that blows your mind...?...sure.
Inconsistent in the sense that he ventured away from the psycho blues & got into fusion playing & was always one-upping himself & everyone else...?...sure.
I agree.
Go listen the Beck-Ola album, & tell me that those COVERS aren't completely fucking original.

@mstannta Did you even read the whole thing or did you just look at one of my comments? Next time, try to at least to make an informed statement before spouting your mouth because i'm certainly not attacking anybody personally. Stay out of things you know nothing about because I can seriously tell you I know much more than you and I don't need to personally attack anybody to prove that.
@Cream234 I think you've just proved my point. If you really did know as much as you claim, you wouldn't have to make stupid remarks like this. Still I think I've done everyone a service by exposing you for what you are.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
@mstannta If you had something to add to my original discussion, then by all means go ahead because I was trying to make a point. But im pretty sure you didnt read all of my comments and are just some Jeff Beck fanboy like the last guy.
@Cream234 I could add quite a lot to the discussion if you were saying anything that was worth commenting on. And yes, I read your diatribe. Given your choice of language, I can see why your 8 year old covers his ears.
@CaptainBeyond72 I totally agree, but then, those people, the ''jimi did it first'' crowd don't know what they're talking about really, they just latch onto it because other people have said it for some reason. I'm amazed Beck is still going quite strong, even if it is mostly guitar fans and the older audiences turning up at his gigs because nowadays, it's all about looks and stage performance more than ever. Oh well, everything moves on I suppose. But alot is not forgotten.
@MichaelPalinFan2008 The usual suespects(Rolling Stone) have played a major role in the deification of Hendrix to the point of absurdity. Jimi will always be 27 and that helps the legacy a ton. Maybe those periodic breaks for Beck, particularly in the 80's and 90's, have helped him in the long run. Fans appreciate him more, he doesn't have an "Unplugged" like Clapton that pushed him way too far into the pop mainstream. Beck is rarely on the radio even classic rock...keeps things fresh
@originaltbyrd As a paul owner and lover, I must say Clapton - being a small guy - made his Paul in '65 look big, mean and awesome. He was one of the first english bluesman / rock and rollers to wield it. And hey, Jeff even gave him a nod at 1:13 on this recording..
Underrated? Not so sure about that. Hell, he has traveled the world playing with the best and teaching his drum method as well...surely one of the all time great drummers....timeless....
ok i gotta comment here...lol....yes carmine is underrated. he's been a legacy drummer from the 70's to present. also jeff beck is one of the hottest and scary guitarists ive ever heard. and props to the 'the bogey man' on bass. this band HAD to be one of the HOTTEST three piece groups ever to grace us with their talents. another shout out goes to Cream (the farewell concert)
@pachopavan i dont think hes underrated, i mean hes considered one of the greatest and most skill drummer ever, definately one of the best rock drummers
@sharrer2 He actually uses both.Just uses pick or fingers whenever the mood strikes him.Look on youtube for Jeff Beck Live 1974,you can see what I'm talking about...He does pick slides alot too...
Jeff used to play with a pick. He stopped after dropping his pick in the middle of live solo - embarrassed he decided to kick the pick for good and we're all quite happy since!! He dont need one!
Clapton also recorded Stepping Out under the name of Eric Clapton & the Powerhouse for a compilation album called What's Shakin' in 1966, featuring Jack Bruce on bass and Steve Winwood on piano.
My wife is a long time Spinal Tap fan, and she cracked up so hard when she first saw an interview with Jeff Beck, Nigel Tufnel is Jeff Beck, period, end of story.
hey boogerchillin,why don't you just marry jeff so you can tell him how wonderful he is every day.because i think that you know that you want to be mrs beck...am i right.i heard that your mom makes good biscuits and gravy.

Actually I saw Jeff Beck in April asshat. He was the shit. Tell me one guitarist you like who is as innovative and original as Jeff Beck. You probably sitting around wanking to the Yngwie posters on your wall you jackass. Tal Wilkenfeld was hot at the show btw, not that you're into girls.
God this kicks major ass!!!!! Jeff is the man! This is the first time I have heard this version of Jeff's Boogie. I really like the "Beverly Hillbelly" tag toward the end, nice touch!!
Oh man, those glorious seconds when jeff is somehow playing his guitar like a banjo are amazing...i wish there was a video so i could see how hes doing that hah

Technically speaking, Hendrix isn't a virtuoso guitarist...
He sounds as good & as powerful as he does because of his equipment, and the SOUND he can get from it. Seriously.
Take away the amplifier & have him play acoustic, or plug into a "clean" amp, and he sounds just like anybody else. Nothing special at all.
Hendrix is Hendrix thanks to what he picked up from what Jeff Beck was doing a good two-three years prior to him.

@MichaelPalinFan2008 Jeff Beck would totally disagree with you. In fact he would laugh at you in your face for saying the stupid things you've said about Hendrix. The man you are blindly defending disagrees with everything you have said...please understand this so you don't look like such a douchebag elitist. Don't think Jimi can play acoustic? "Hear my train a comin" is a song he played on a 12 string acoustic and if you think that is a weak performance then you can go to hell.

@kylekylelewis So what Jeff Beck disagrees with me? Isn't life all about opinions? I don't care what he thinks or agrees and disagrees with me, he's his own person and so am I. Oh I think Hendrix is a pioneer.....the most important and greatest pioneer to guitar ever....just he's exaggerated....like Cheryl Cole who is the 'nation's sweetheart', when yes, she is a brilliant singer and artist, but just she's over publicised so people think she's more amazing than she is EVEN THOUGH SHE IS AMAZING

@kylekylelewis For people who can read properly....unlike yourself, I said....''pioneer perceived to be'', i.e. exaggerated. Hendrix, is if not one of the most important, THE most important, 'influential', and best guitarists that has ever lived....and whilst being incredibly insanely god like at what he does, which no one could ever do, he is rightly to been seen that way....only people want to see more than what is. I'm not putting Hendrix down in any way, I'm simply saying he's exaggerated
MichaelPalinFan2008 1 year ago
@MichaelPalinFan2008 Hey Mike I think Jeff got as good as he is partly due to how JIMI put a fire in to the Brit's and Beck has come out way ahead of the game as far as inventivness,and seeing as to how this is a few years after JIMI died,they were sort of kindred souls in a way....Love them both !!

@kylekylelewis By the way, it was Stevie who I was saying about can't play acoustic that good....please read with care. Yes I do think Jimi is a good acoustic player. In all honesty....being a 'good' guitar player.......there is no such thing. In terms of technicality and being able to pull off the sounds 'perfectly', and getting the feel across yeah, but otherwise no. There is SO many things that make a guitar player good. In the end it's all about opinions, who you like, and you don't.

@asmorgan88 First you put down Jimi and then you say SRV is fucking terrible? I dont argue that who influenced who and who started first crap because it's retarded, but Jimi took what he and his contemporarys were doing and launched it into another statosphere. Jimi deserves all the credit he receives and so does Beck. Although Beck was truly great at the start of his career, he was terribly inconsistent and really made a mistake when he left his hard rocking blues and went away from his roots.
Cream234 1 year ago
@Cream234
I never said SRV was terrible...I did however say that I heard him do an acoustic set & it was horrid.
I love how you're bashing on me for my opinion, yet you clearly state yours' in that Beck was inconsistent & made a mistake by moving away from his roots.
Great - Jimi Hendrix was a guitarist & did some great things with his ability to properly use effects, pedals, & distortion, while other guitarists perfected their craft as GUITARISTS, not fucking showmen or gimmicky acts.

@asmorgan88 Yeah well, nobody said he was a great acoustic guitarist and I dont think anyone went to see him in concert to play the acoustic guitar, although Life By the Drop was an excellent acoustic piece. Beck was inconsistent, sorry. After Truth, he never got that gritty and raw ever again. Plus, Hendrix had 10x the originality than Beck did. Dont get me wrong bro, I fucking love Beck, I even posted a song of his, but Hendrix kills him on so many levels.

@Cream234
To say that Beck was inconsistent or lacking originality is a farce.
Inconsistent in the sense that he would, more or less, disappear for a few years, & then come out with something that blows your mind...?...sure.
Inconsistent in the sense that he ventured away from the psycho blues & got into fusion playing & was always one-upping himself & everyone else...?...sure.
I agree.
Go listen the Beck-Ola album, & tell me that those COVERS aren't completely fucking original.

@CaptainBeyond72 I totally agree, but then, those people, the ''jimi did it first'' crowd don't know what they're talking about really, they just latch onto it because other people have said it for some reason. I'm amazed Beck is still going quite strong, even if it is mostly guitar fans and the older audiences turning up at his gigs because nowadays, it's all about looks and stage performance more than ever. Oh well, everything moves on I suppose. But alot is not forgotten.
MichaelPalinFan2008 1 year ago
@MichaelPalinFan2008 The usual suespects(Rolling Stone) have played a major role in the deification of Hendrix to the point of absurdity. Jimi will always be 27 and that helps the legacy a ton. Maybe those periodic breaks for Beck, particularly in the 80's and 90's, have helped him in the long run. Fans appreciate him more, he doesn't have an "Unplugged" like Clapton that pushed him way too far into the pop mainstream. Beck is rarely on the radio even classic rock...keeps things fresh
