I don't own anything
I am grateful to be able to follow Jeff's trajectory in this way.
Once again, we can see that Jeff interacted with musicians of many different genres and tastes.
No doubt Jeff himself was inspired by their music.
I like that Jeff played on so many people’s albums and in very different styles.
This isn’t my particular choice but I appreciate that if I listened more I might change my view.
Such a surprise to hear Beck in this context. It has such a Jazz Crusader vibe. I respect him even more. Thanks for all your posts, Chromedreamer!
Once again I get to hear something I hadn’t heard before. Jeff keeps giving us music courtesy of chromedreamer! Thanks!
Steve Alexander played on the 1999 and 2001 tour as well. Steve came out of nowhere. The only significant playing in his past was with Duran Duran. The group hired him in 1995; he played with them for 6 years. So there was a period when Alexander played with Jeff and DD. Steve really blew my mind; he was phenomenal. He was a perfect dummer for JB’s techno/electrica music. Steve just had a great balance of “skins” and percussion. He replaced Duran Duran’s previous drummers that included Terry Bozzio (former JB dummer) and Vinnie Colaiuta (future JB drummer). His name should be mentioned in any serious conversation about the greatest dummers that played with Jeff. Jeff’s playing on these tracks is awesome; a deeper dive into the techno genre. I believe JB’s 3 techno records are just like the 3 rock/jazz fusion albums. He did 3 in a row of each; exploring the genre till he had his “fill” and then moved on. The first song sounds like his guitar sound is highly compressed and he is using the Wah Wah pedal intermittently throughout the track. I must find this album for purchasing.
Jeff Beck is on the IAN HUNTER Defiance Part 2 : Fiction CD April 8th and/or April 20th Record Store Release 2LP set with3 bonus tracks. Some of you may know Beck and Clapton Moon River was released in England July 2023 ( 6 months after his passing ) The two guitarists had performed a version of this live but the single is studio version. It's unclear when this or Hunter song was recorded. Beck and Depp were on a US tour late 2022. The last date being Nov 12 Reno NV. I was fortunate to catch the Oct 8 Port Chester, NY date. He was Great as usual- opening with " Freeway Jam". What are the details of this music playing here on YT???
