      100% Truth! All his notes has a meaning. A reason. All his solos tell a story, and now people doesnt want storys, only speed, extravagant effects, etc. Thats why you are right, he is underrated. Hes style is only exquisit for the ones that really understand how difficult is to say something trough a guitar Solo.

    This left me speechless! I was watching the Martin Miller version of this featuring Mark & thinking that was very nearly as good as the Jeff Beck version on the live at Ronnie Scott’s album. This trio version popped up so I thought I’d give it a listen.... simply sublime. I have been a fan of Mark’s playing ever since getting turned on to Snarky Puppy, but here he is in a class of his own.

    I think I made an audible noise followed by an F word when I heard the pizzicato thing at 4:28. My wife peeked in to make sure I was ok. That is some seriously creative stuff. I love how you play other songs exactly like Jeff Beck and a Jeff Beck song like nothing I've ever heard before.

    • @mjlettieri
      @mjlettieri  5 лет назад

      That's hilarious! Very kind of you to say that, John. I'm definitely a huge Jeff fan - I try my best to do my thing when I can, and still honor the original. Some people dig it, others don't :) This was also the first time this trio had played together, and the first time we'd done this tune. I don't think the drummer had ever heard it until that afternoon. What ya see is what ya get!

    • @Twominutedevotions

    First word that comes to mind ..... " WOW ". REALLY pleasant and exciting to listen to. Very tasteful. It's hard to put one's own flavor onto the great Jeff Beck, but Mr. Lettieri and his group have managed it. A bold, yet thoughtful, rendition. Thanks !

    • @mjlettieri
      @mjlettieri  5 лет назад +1

      Thanks man! This was the first time we'd ever played it - and actually the first time this configuration had played together. No rehearsal, just winged it. I'm not sure the drummer had ever heard the tune before earlier that day, ha! :) I know it's sort of a "forbidden" song or whatever, but we had some fun with it. I appreciate the support.

    Oh, man. Beautifully done and brings up a well of memories for me. As a kid, after I learned guitar some, a guy I knew had an electric guitar and was, ehhh...ok. My brother played drums, so that meant I was gonna play bass. We couldn't afford a PA, so we three went to school on Jeff Beck Wired and ZZ Top's live album. Still beautiful. Thanks!
