One of my favorite songs of his.

Sail on Mr. Beck.

Was a tad late to the Beck Party, but when "Jeff Beck With the Jan Hammer Group Live" hit it sucked me in & had me back trackin' somewhat into his catalogue. Only saw him once live, once with tix in possession I had to "miss out" but definitely someone I should have made a better effort to go see multiple times.
Sail On Mr. Beck!

Sail on Mr. Beck.

That video is from a show in a small club in, I think, London. I saw it on TV a few years ago, maybe on PBS. The woman he had playing bass, Tal Wilkenfeld, was outstanding and she was really young too, about 21 or 22. I think she's from Australia.

Just read that Stevie Wonder wrote this. He gave it to Jeff Beck because Motown wanted Stevie to record Superstition instead. Stevie originally intended Superstition for Beck. Love both as they are, things turned out for the best.

I just love these little anecdotes, too.

Yes, performed at Ronnie Scotts Jazz Club. I watched most of that show as well & I agree wholeheartedly about Tal.
You can purchase the DVD or the CD. I was lucky enough to find a copy of the CD at the local public library & downloaded it.
