Under a dark sky in Tempe, Arizona, Fender guitar’s 60th Anniversary concert I was mesmerized by Jeff Beck. I realized between songs, the hum of his Marshall Stack filling the desert, he is listening to what he is playing. Sounds silly I know. He tuned by ear, it was close enough… he doesn’t fret notes and chords. He listens for the sound he wants and contorts the instrument and amp to get that sound. Both hands, the bar, the volume, the amp overtones, whatever it takes. Thank you Mr. Beck for the inspiration, your music, and the wonder.

A lot of people might not no this, but he was also a very dedicated and excellent car builder and mechanic . He used to hot rod cars and just drive them round the roads he lived by in Sussex, England. Great guitar player, great hot rod builder and a great man. Rest in power, Jeff.

I think what is telling about Jeff Beck is that for a guitarist I really love, he did so many songs I didn't really like that much. He changed and ranged so often, reinvented and re-examined so often that inevitably no single listener went the whole way with him, but what a commitment to exploring the potential of the instrument. He made the music he wanted to make.

I was a little young for the Yardbirds in real time, but I liked both Jeff Beck groups, but where I really caught the bug was the fusion. From then on, I wanted everything he did to sound like Blow by Blow, Wired and There and Back. I eventually came around to his later output, but not really when things were fresh. I always liked Guitar Shop, but my appreciation for all those Hymas melodies really grew after hearing them at Ronnie Scott’s. Sigh. I’m really gonna miss this guy.

I had dug Jeff Beck when I first heard him with the Yardbirds (yeah, I'm THAT old) but never witnessed him Live until 1968 when his group played Alexandria Roller Rink in support of his debut "Truth" album. He taught me something important that day - shaping notes like a vocal. Even on a rather throwaway song akin to "Freebird" or "Proud Mary" on "Rock My Plimsoul" he slid up to the notes and his whole arm moved in an elbow swing that made the notes envelopes and timbre reflect his physical motion. They sang out. He broke me out of the DC stoic "Stand and Deliver" doldrums and set me free, set me to the physicality of Music. I have never been the same after that first Live experience of Jeff Beck. His life made an important difference that I suspect will still be felt in well over 100 years, come what else may. Thank you, Jeff. Thank you for this video, Michael. Much appreciated.

BTW, Michael, if you haven't already, you seriously need to listen to a friend of Jeff Beck's, Tommy Bolin, on his "Teaser" album or especially his breakout stretch on Billy Cobham's "Spectrum" LP. Like Jeff, he brought real and visceral life to what could have been a bit stuffy, and his mates were all so much better for it. It's an amazing LP recorded in 1971? 2? that could literally come out in 2022 to acclaim. Please do a deep dive on Tommy even if you just keep it to yourself, but I think a video would be primo.

Thank you for this very detailed explanation, and revelation of Jeff Beck's brilliant ability and technique, -his control of the Amp and the ability to use notes so close to one another using the amps and CONTROLLONG THE ELECTRICITY ITSELF TO create each of the notes is amazing. It is almost impossible a thing to do, and as he does it, some people in the audience know what he is doing; THE IMPOSSIBLE, and in the most difficult higher notes on the guitar. You have done a great job Michael Palmisano-Thankyou! Thankyou! SO MANY PEOPLE DO NOT GET THIS AT ALL!! Most people cannot SEE it at all!! They cannot understand it or comprehend it. They will never get Jeff Beck as they judge guitarists' playing with criteria they do not even know about! A pianist does not have to have such a control over their notes as this.

Thank you for posting this. For years, I tried to listen to Beck to relax, but just couldn't do it. I loved his early stuff when he played more like a great, raw blues/rock guitarist, but couldn't wrap my head around everything after that. This video helps me appreciate how much of an artist and innovator he was...maybe not the guy you listen to if you want to rock out or even just put your feet up and chill - but a lot more than that. I think he's someone you have to learn to appreciate, the way the art world learned to appreciate Picasso, or the literary world came around to Joyce. I think Beck's legacy will be heard in many guitar players in the future taking his "tricks of the trade" in their own directions.
