I’m constantly amazed by reactors being surprised by the sounds of the sixties. The seventies were dominated by 60’s musicians who grew up & competed with each other to get better & be more innovated than the next artist. The artist of the 60’s is dominated by artist who provided the 70’s classic rock era. Rock ‘N Roll, Blues, Soul, Pop & even Country was on every Top 40 station & they all competed for air time.
Rod and Ronnie with the Faces is great. Early Rod is the best Rod.
In my opinion, this is the best vocals by Rod Stewart.
Aint that the truth
And brilliant bass playing from Ronnie Wood.
No doubt.
Within about 12 months of each other we got Jimi's "Are You Experienced
"Truth" by Jeff Beck, folllowed shortly thereafter by Led Zeppelin's first album
My freshman year-68-at University of Florida, Gainesville, Fla. This album cover was propped up in a completely empty record store window.
EVERYBODY was blasting this.
(a record store!....what a concept)
This was Rod Stewart's first album and first tour. His first show was in Madison Square Garden. Beck with incredible tone, as always. The Ron Wood on bass is the same guy who played guitar as a member of Red Stewart and the Faces - and has been playing with Rolling Stones since the late 1970's.
Nobody could make a guitar talk quite like Mr. Jeff Beck!
I been listening to this since the early 70's and this song and several others on the album like Blues D lux I have never heard him replicate live. Like the song Mountain. Dew. He has never played it live anywhere close to the studio version
If Jeff was still alive he would say that Roy Buchanan could make a Guitar "talk" too, I saw him do it live. Twice. Only saw Jeff once. RIP Jeff and Roy.
"A Nod Is As Good As A Wink To A Blind Horse" is a fun Rod Stewart album. R.I.P. Jeff
miss judy's farm is my fave, then of course stay with me, good tunes
That's a Faces record with some of its best tunes also sung by Ronnie Lane
It's not a Rod Stewart album. It's a Faces album.
@@ednicholson7839 And Ronnie had some amazing albums after the Faces that are almost forgotten.
@@jurgenschmidt2759 Thanks, I need to check those out. I don't think I've ever heard a Ronnie Lane song outside of the Small Faces or Faces.
Rod Stewart sang vocals on this album before anyone knew who Rod Stewart was.
Aside from his "disco years," Rod Stewart has been one of the premier vocalists in the history of rock music. Check out the "Play it again, Rod" album and be amazed.
Then you see "Jeff at Ronnie Scott's", then you see Jeff with Imelda May, then you see Jeff with Imogen Heap, then you get that he can do anything
His "Rockabilly" gig at Ronnie Scott's is masterful.
Jeff Beck! Top shelf! 🎉
68 was a great year for music..I was 10 years old when this came out, learned air guitar, saw Hendrix & listened to FM stations while the other kids were listening to AM.. Those 'cat' wah licks are some of my absolute favs of all time.
I saw Jeff Beck in concert at the LA Shrine Auditorium 1968. Alvin Lee and 10 yrs. After, The Moody Blues were also on the bill. Great. memories.
@@grandpacardenaz8222 Nice!
Check out the whole album. One of the best debuts in rock! IMHO
This album came out when I was 17. Still one of my all time favorites
Same here. I wore this album out.
Jeff was the master of futuristic visionary guitar.
Please do as much of this album as you can. It’s so good.
Best vocals from Rod and of course Jeff is Jeff.
Shapes of Things, Morning Dew and You Shook Me are musts.
And on this song, I got the grin on my face same time as you. 😊
Rod had a vocal run with the first two Beck albums, 2 Faces Records and his own first two solo albums that are on top of Rock’s Vocal Rushmore.
Check out "Roger the Engineer" -- "Yardbirds" -- Jeff Beck. Sounds like it was recorded in the future.
This song was used to great effect in the movie, "Casino."
Also, another great song from this album is the instrumental, "Beck's Bolero."
Lee you will find that a lot of these groups contained well known musicians that had played in many of the same bands together at one point or another, They were very intertwined and connected in those days. After playing with the Jeff Beck Group, both Rod Stewart and Ronnie Wood joined the Small Faces in 1969 which then became Faces. Eventually, Ronnie Wood became a full time member of The Rolling Stones.
This album Truth is one great album. One my all time favorites. After this Beck became to experimental for me. But when he played straight blues one of best.
I've got that Howlin' Wolf recording in my collection. Howlin' Wolf's real name is Chester Burnett. Got to see Jeff Beck on a double bill with Carlos Santana, an amazing evening of music. RIP Jeff Beck and Howlin' Wolf.
Truth and Zeppelin one are the fruits of the yardbirds, Truth is a fantastic record, Old Man River is a favorite
Love the morning dew
"Morning Dew".
my brother met rod in the 80's. went out to dinner and drinks with him. i have a photo of them. i love early rod's music. saw him 2x's in concert. my brother told me rod just acts like a normal guy, no airs or graces from him, very down to earth. what can you say? some guys have all the luck. truth and jeff beck.... fab
the best song from Jeff's early years is a great blues rocker called Going Down, by Don Nix. From the 1972 album The Jeff Beck Group, his 4th.
My suggestion is explore more Beck, he was a different kind of human. He only got better until the day he died. Saw him and SRV and later at MGM in 2009ish. Amazing. Live at Ronnie Scotts is a charge and a half.
For us older folks :) the whole Yardbirds/Clapton/Page/beck thing is well known. And just as good (in my opinion), and lesser known, is the John Mayall-three guitarists thing. When Clapton left The Yardbirds he joined John Mayall's band. He was only with them for a bit over year and left to form Cream. Peter Green took his place in late 66. He left about a year later to form Fleetwood Mac, and Mick Taylor replaced him. Mick was then invited to join the Stones in 1969, after Brian Jones had been fired. Not a bad succession of guitar players there, either.
Not sure if you've heard 'Beck's Bolero' off the Truth album, but it was recorded in mid-late 1966 while he was still with The Yardbirds (or mayb right after he left). WAY ahead of it's time. An incredible piece of music. From what I gather it was co-written by Jimmy Page and Beck, though Page got the songwriting credit (surprise!). And it had Keith Moon on drums, John Paul Jones on bass and Nicky Hopkin on keys, with Page and Beck on guitars. if you think this was great for 68, see what Bolero sounds like back in 1966!
Truth is a fantastic album, and this song was the highlight. Rock My Plimsoul is another song from this album to check out.
I love this album, there is a Jeff Beck tune recorded at this time with Rod Stewart on vocals called "I'm Drinking Again" which I would love you to react to.
Jeff Beck was always cutting edge for every era he played in. Go to the next extreme and react to Jeff Becks song "Hammerhead" from his studio release Emotion Commotion. It will blow you away!🔥
Rod made a name for himself with this band (their first two albums) and then joined the Small Faces, which had to be renamed Faces because they were all 5'4" or 5'5" and he's 5'10". His first several solo albums (concurrent with his Faces output) are terriffic. Ron Wood's bass on Rod's first is stellar.
This album is amazing. Other highlights include their cover of a tune Jeff played on when he was with the Yardbirds, "Shapes of Things." and the incredible instrumental Jimmy Page wrote for Beck, "Beck's Bolero."
This was only 2 years after the invention of the wahwah pedal. Jeff and Jimi were leading the way in experimentation with the sounds it could make
I purchased this album when it first came out. I haven't been the same since. It's responsible for my addiction to the electric guitar to this day. What a unique guitarist Jeff Beck was (may he rest in peace)
This was part of Jeff's transition from rock to a brief flirtation with early heavy metal to progressive jazz. A very creative musician. Also the album "beckola" is a great album from this period. It's been said that Jimmy page took the model of Led Zeppelin from this power trio. The DVD of Ronnie Scotts really shows Jeff's incredible range and creativity. Damn , I wish he was still here.
My faves from this band are this, 'Shapes of Things' and 'Beck's Bolero', the original track featuring Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones and Keith Moon, who may have contributed the name Led Zeppelin to the lexicon with an offhand remark about the chances at a concept's success, or sumthin.
There's also live versions from recent years.
From their 2nd album, 'Beckola', I like 'Spanish Boots', 'The Hangman's Knee' and 'Rice Pudding', which you should consider listening back-to-back with Jimi Hendrix's 'Burning Desire'.
This is almost unknown. Why? Badass! So is the album. Rock My Plimsoul.
Jeff Beck was just immediately before Jimi Hendrix as a pioneer in getting effects out of an electric guitar. He continued that legacy until his recent death. All of his music, starting with the Yardbirds, sounded futuristic. If you haven't yet, react to the Yardbirds' Over Under Sideways Down, probably the first song ever to feature super-distorted lead guitar. I think it was Beck, but may have been Page on that one. A real banger!
Beck one of the greatest.
Incomparable. No one like or near him. He just did it.
You mentioned we'll be hearin' Barbra Streisand soon. I highly recommend you consider her version o' Stoney End, written by Laura Nyro. I bought the single in 1971, even though I was not a Barbra Streisand fan. It's one o' those songs that grabs you 'n won't let go. Her vocals are astoundin'. I played it o'er 'n o'er 'n o'er again. Even today I get excited when I hear it....Check it out Mr. Man.
Awesome
Fantastic album !! Now you are diving deeper into Jeff Beck , so put your seatbelt on ! I can't tell you everything in a thousand words or less , so , , ! My top 5 of guitar gods , in no particular order , Hendrix , Jeff Beck , Tommy Bolin , Johnny Winter , Frank Zappa !! But then there's Ritchie Blackmore , and can't forget Alvin Lee ! Jeff Beck is just something else , one of the few that can play notes with his whammy bar , not many others can do that ! If you want live video , anything from , Live At Ronnie Scott's !
Nice one! Thanks! ❤
Check out Beck’s Bolero off the same LP, written by Jimmy Page with Keith Moon & John Entwistle.
The Ox didn’t show,replaced by John Paul Jones. Nicky Hopkins on piano.
@@billalbritton4972 so Pete Townsend found out about the session and Entwisle backed out?
@@geob3963 Moon and Entwistle were tired of Pete,John had a change of heart & backed out. Beck was planning super group(can’t recall who the singer would be).
Look into the collaboration between Jeff Beck and Stevie Wonder, on each others' projects.
Because We’ve Ended As Lovers, written by Stevie for Jeff. Amazing track.
@@geob3963 Stevie gave Jeff the right to record Superstition first, but that got delayed and Stevies' manager insisted that he get it recorded first.
So much personality to this one 😀
Beck,.. one of the all time Greats!
The original song by Howlin’ Wolf is also great.
Incidentally, some may notice that 2 ex-Yardbirds, started their own band's, and use almost an identical blueprint.
Although Zeppelin carried it longer, the layouts of the albums are eerily similar, awesome guitar,bass and drums with a powerhouse vocalist. Great song, great album.( I have 3 copies ),😜
My brother joined the Army to avoid the draft and left behind his record collection. "Truth" was one of those records. I've been a fan of every member of that band ever since. Jeff became dozens of different guitarists over the next 5+ decades, and each of them better than anyone else, IMHO. And of course, Rod and Ron went on to fame and fortune, eclipsing Jeff in both categories. Jeff was still the man. If you want a recommendation for another Jeff/Rod collaboration, you could fast forward to the 80s when they recorded the Curtis Mayfield song "People Get Ready". The performance was great, and there is a great video of it that's lots of fun.
Rod Stewart and Ron Wood (bass) would leave and join the remaining members of the Small Faces cresting the band Faces ("Stay With Me"). Rod would simultaneously start a solo career. Faces broke uo and Ron Wood replaced Mick Taylor in the Rolling Stones.
Meanwhile, Jeff created various new bands and a lot of solo albums right up to his passing.
Micky Waller (RIP 2008) was in a bunch of babd and was also a studio drummer. He was brieflt in John Mayall's Blues Breakers with Peter Green and John McVie (both later of Fleetwood Mac). He played on the great early Rod solo albums, as did Ron Wood. Waller's playing experience included credits with The Walker Brothers, Cat Stevens, Eric Clapton, Bo Diddley, Dusty Springfield, Paul McCartney and Billy Bragg.
"Beck's Bolero" on this slbum was written by Page and features Page, John Paul Jones and Keith Moon.
Lee: From this album, you must hear Shapes Of Things. And from the next record, Beck-Ola, you must hear EVERYTHING. It's the sound of the inmates running the asylum.
Check out some of Jeff's stuff from the Blow by Block album. Some seriously impressive stuff.
And of course everyone should see his performance of "Because We Ended as Lovers" from Ronnie Scotts, with Tal on bass.
Blow by Blow
When Beck left the Yardbirds he formed his own band. Young Ron Woods (Rolling Stones guitarist for last 40+ years) playing great bass. Very young Rod Stewart sounding a lot like Robert Plant years before Zepplin was formed. They did lots of great music
Ain’t Superstitious is one of my faves from the Jeff Beck group; loved all of the guys in the group. Your speech on remembering the older “classic rock” was on point. I’d be curious to know the name of the book that someone sent you that illustrates the connections among the players from all of the bands. Love the channel. Cheers!
You should give a listen to "Blow by Blow" and "Wired" as they are both excellent, progressive, funk, fusion, etc. And "Blow by Blow" has especially good drums.
The first time I heard the combination of a slide and a wah wah. After hearing the Jeff Beck albums with Rod Stewart on vocals, I didn't really follow what Stewart was doing afterwards, as Beck continued on with some good stuff with his second Jeff Beck Group, and then on to his fusion period. Check out Page inducting Beck into the R.& R. H. of Fame, about how they knew each other as teens, how Beck just kept improving, and then the song they played together afterwards.
Classic of the 60's era!
Have your heard the jeff beck tune " led boots " ?
Jeff Beck is the only one of the sixties "guitar gods" that continued to be just as interesting and unpredictable as ever right up to the end. And Mick Waller has that great "tripping over a pile of old suitcases" sound (particularly on Rod's first two solo albums, not so much on this track) that I've always loved. Kenny Jones has it too, at times.
This is probably the best track but there are other gems on this album.
Rod Stewart is relevant into the 2,000’s. Rod went pop to be successful & it paid off. Hard core Stewart fans cherish his & Ronnie Woods “Faces” years together & Rods early years as a solo artist with back up by his Faces band mates. The LP “Every Picture Tells A Story” will impress you. It features “Maggie May”. You should listen to the LP studio version.
John Mayall's" Blues Breakers!"Propelled 3 Major Guitarists Too!
A very young Ron Wood on bass.
Rod Stewart went next to "Faces". And that was "peculiar":
Rod Stewart recorded for Mercury Records and had a backing band that looked like "Faces".
"Faces" recorded for Warner Bros. Records and had a singer that looked and sounded exactly like Rod Stewart.
Check out Rod with the Faces
Try ‘Rock My Plimsoul’
Zep's precursor
Hendrix was obsessed with this album Truth. He couldn't understand how Beck played it. But the weird thing is Hendrix told him to stop playing it. That blues is limited. So on one hand Hendrix was blown away from it but then said don't do it expand. And for me it was wrong choice
Electric and exhilarating
The demise of Cream left a vacuum that was partially filled by Beck and Zeppelin. This album came out shortly before Zeppelin's debut. The whole thing is great. Beck was a wizard and relatively unsung; Clapton and Page got all the attention. Rod Stewart with his oddball soulfulness played a large role here and Mick Waller is the best drummer no one has ever heard of. I preferred the Beck group to Zeppelin because Stewart's vocals were vastly more listenable than Robert Plant's intolerable faux-soul howling. He redeemed himself on "Kashmir" however
Just as everyone else has already stated, Rod Stewart was just an unknown vocalist (to most folks, not to other local musicians) who Jeff Beck new of and was hired to sing vocals on a couple of songs on the album. I don't believe Beck sings just plays a great guitar.
is that a real beatles butcher baby album behind you?
Hope not. 🫤
His second album “Beck Ola” is def better!
I disagree. "Beck-Ola" is largely outtakes from the sessions for "Truth".
Jeff Beck.
For my money- the best that ever was.
Yup- even over Hendrix and Van Halen.
Just my opinion.
Cooking with gas now!!!
If you ever listen to the first album by Led Zeppelin then listen to the Jeff Beck Group album Truth , it’s clear as day that Zeppelin stole most of their ideas from this Jeff Beck masterpiece recorded a year before Led Zeppelin’s debut .
"It sounds like future music. It doesn't sound like 1968."
Maybe someday you will have enough knowledge of music to realize that there WAS music before your generation discovered music. There hasn't been anything new in popular music since the first electric guitar was plugged in. Even Hendrix was just an variation of blues music. And everything since Bach has been variations on the same themes.
Just enjoy it.
