Absolutely first class kick ass! What a a band! what a groove. That drummer was definitely doing the driving. You can't find that kind of performance in too many places anymore.
That drummer.....he knew exactly what he was doing! Awesome!!! Jeff Beck - no doubt he is an international treasure but he also knows how to put together a killer band! Sax man killed it also!
Whenever I hear this, I want to put on a pair of dark glasses, jump into a ‘58 Corvette convertible, solve a case, then drive off with a beautiful dame by my side. Along with the Pink Panther theme, one of the coolest pieces of music ever written.
I used to come here a lot. Haven't visited in a while. Ya gotta love that drummer: his facial expressions and the drums like exploding gunshots. Those boys didn't leave anything on the table. Great performance and performances.
Even Jimi Hendrix and ELP covered this magnificent Henry Mancini tune (talk about a guy who should be in the R&R Hall of Fame as an influence) -- but on this night, Jeff Beck and his band owned it. A superb ensemble piece, the way it was meant to be played. Sax player just kills it and then not stopping there the marvelous trombone player sends it into the stratosphere. The Big Band/Swing musicians in Heaven are giving you a standing ovation guys.
@@suzannepope9891 - Check out his "Experiment In Terror" theme from the great Glenn Ford-Lee Remick & Ross Martin thriller of a motion picture. That's been covered by some jazz artists and it's creepy sounding.
I usually don't like the way most groups do Peter Gunn. They never seem to hold up to Mancini's original, but this rocked !!! The brass and saxes were great. The drummer really put energy into it, and i commend Beck for letting the band take it without a lead guitar solo. Real musicianship !!!
JB is always great, check out ELPs version! wow JB was more jazzy, which is pure Mancini and very fine. Much agreement with comments re letting the horn section blast off... super cool all the way around.
@@rkr7372 So true and he is a pioneer...and a hell of a auto mechanic!. His Blue Wind album with Jan Hammer was amazing. All that zingy high energy other worldly music from another sphere...but what KILLS on that album is his soulful, mournful, raging version of Mingus's "Goodbye Porkpie Hat". I can't think of another piece of music that moves me like that one does. It's rock it's jazz it's soul and something completely new and different all at once.
Peter Jeffery No doubt, if anyone has a doubt about how great he is, just listen to what the other greats of that era have to say about Beck. Clapton, Page, Richards don’t have a negative word to say about him or his playing. When Richie Blackmore says he never gets more frustrated than trying to play the way Jeff does should tell anyone all you need to know.
@@rkr7372 What gets me about Beck is his absolute virtuosity. He can switch from speed of light frenetic picking (weep Richie weep) to soft and spare with long nuanced single string tones that don't need any embellishment. Matchless technique aside, Beck knows when to let the guitar whisper and the song play through. I've never heard better.
This is the best version I'd heard of *"Peter Gunn".* Generally when one thinks of Henry Mancini, one thinks of jazz standards, but with the right musicians, Mancini's music can be whatever genre one wants to play.
How effing good was that? Dude with the sax rocked that house but good, and no worries. Then Mr. TromboneBazooka kills it. The whole band beat, bitch-slapped, and flat out throttled that sucker for all it was worth, and then some, and proceeded to burn the whole house to to the ground, just because they could. Amazing performance. Sometimes it's so good you never want it to end, and for me that was one of those times. I know it was 2011, but you just know Beck is still full of surprises. Too good!
Blue Lou Marini OMG the best SAX player ever , the last time I seen him was in the Blues Brothers don't know why he didn't play the lead but this is a fantastic tribute to Henry Mancini and will never age this is real dancing round the kitchen stuff
Lol there ya GO ! Love "dancin' in the kitchen" one of old Detroit dj's when I was a kid-had a tag line......"push back the chairs,roll up the rugs,break out the bottles,fill up the jugs"
Alright😱😳🤔This is my favorite version ever!!!😆🤣😘😍😃🤗💙😊Complex sound...so much to see & hear😘😘😘😘❤️❤️That sax is wicked!😁😁The trumpet is killer😆😆😆😘😘😘😘😘But the group makes this song the best!🤗🤗
I played Trombone in school and never ascended about the level of crappy. The guy playing the trombone in this piece is off the hook good! Wow! That is what I aspired to be back in a day and never came remotely close.
Absolutely first class kick ass! What a a band! what a groove. That drummer was definitely doing the driving. You can't find that kind of performance in too many places anymore.

Trombone man is kicking serious ass with that solo.
This makes me smile like I know this is sooooo special. 72year old here lol
This band was in the groove!
Whenever I hear this, I want to put on a pair of dark glasses, jump into a ‘58 Corvette convertible, solve a case, then drive off with a beautiful dame by my side. Along with the Pink Panther theme, one of the coolest pieces of music ever written.
Love that drummer - he is really enjoying it.
I used to come here a lot. Haven't visited in a while. Ya gotta love that drummer: his facial expressions and the drums like exploding gunshots. Those boys didn't leave anything on the table. Great performance and performances.
Ripped, shredded and absolutely owned. That song was properly given a 1st class smack down.
Testosterone spilling all over the floor....
Couldn't have said it better. And the volume was uploaded loud, as it should be.
what force and vivacity gave all those horns to that piece ! ,one of the best versions
Great musicians feeling the groove , fun to watch . That drummers a wild man!
Stephen Rushton (drummer) looks sometimes angry but he is behind the toms with Leo Green on Sax on fire....

I remember there was an arcade game used this as background music
@@williampow69 Midway Games. 1983. SPY HUNTER
Yes, you're totally Right & I had No Idea Mancini wrote this song. Seems like nothing he would write..Awesome..! TKS.

This is Les Paul

check out roy Buchanan..smokes most
Beck knew it was hopeless against all that bad ass brass
!
I like some versions better than others, but i've never heard a "bad" cover- it's such a great F'n Jam!
JB is always great, check out ELPs version! wow JB was more jazzy, which is pure Mancini and very fine. Much agreement with comments re letting the horn section blast off... super cool all the way around.
The way Duane Eddy turned the jazz theme into a screaming rock classic was inspirational!
PS The Mancini 2 CD is classic moody jazz!
That Trombone solo was amazing!
I could listen to this like.....all freakin' day.
Trombone Shorty, OH MY!! This is clearly the best version of this song I've ever heard!!!!
That drummer's really into it!!
These guys can play this everyday for the rest of their lives and NEVER get tired of playing it. You can tell they absolutely LOVE playing this
First of all, the drummer. He gets beer. Ice cold. All he wants. Enough to swim in. Free.
Damn! That was fun. Beck rocks.
Lol! Amen, brother.
Yesss !!! Duh drummer is ready: you can see it in his eyes ...
Drummer is awesome. The whole band is totally energized.
Why swim in it if u can drink it.
The comment of the century, thanks John!
The drummer rocks.
The horn section is incredible!
That's Imelda May's band.
@@tonyennis3008 Jeff had that band (and Imelda) for a tribute to his mate, Les Paul
That's Blue Lou Marini on Sax from the fabulous BLUES BROTHERS BAND !
Mark Womack he would make a great muppet 😎 Fabulous player 👍
Tha one and only Blue Lou
Thought that dude looked familiar. Jus' tacked a few more wrinkles on. =)
and Blood, Sweat & Tears before that!
He just about split the reed playing that. Poor Trombone player had to get some blisters after that. Loved it! Gotta play that bass line.
What a great song ! never get tired of the Horns, they make the song !
hail 1958 when the song was a big hit !!!!!
Titanesque
..une montagne de puissante musique
Avec MONSIEUR Jeff Beck il ne pouvait pas en être autrement
Cette vidéo est un chef d'oeuvre
There are about a million versions of this song on RUclips, and every single one of them ROCKS !!
Wow...heart and soul from them all..👍
WOAH...!!!!!!! Jeff Becks whole band Rocks!! - BUT THAT sax n trombone ...FREAKIN WICKED 💯💯💯❤⚘
The heart of the band is Imelda May's backing band.
Jeff Beck the man is in a league of his own. No one can top him..♥️🎸🔥💋
Except for every guitarist who came after him.
@@williamjordan5554 Not hardly.
@@belaghoulashi He can't play Eruption.
@@williamjordan5554 But every guitarist who came after him can???
@@belaghoulashi no, but a lot can. They're all over youtube. Even some kids.
Best version 👏
Love the way he stood back and let the horns blow....brilliant!
Peter Jeffery
Beck was one of the best live performers of the time, what he did without a pick made him a real pioneer in R&R.
@@rkr7372 So true and he is a pioneer...and a hell of a auto mechanic!. His Blue Wind album with Jan Hammer was amazing.

Ooooor Man , it do not get much better than this.
Arguably this is one of the best versions ever of this song.
I won't argue that.
Love the theme and this is my favorite version.
Thought the Blues Brothers version was best.... til I heard this. Holy crap! That 'bone!
Everything Jeff ever did was brilliant. Terrific musician. He was not an egotist, he knew when to just lay back. Terrible loss. RIP Jeff.
That sounded so good! The horn section was great and Jeff Beck is one of my favorites.
KILLER! Love Jeff and GREAT horns!
Amazing band version of this classic. Love it!
Jeff Beck was and still is one of the greatest guitar players of all time effort less style and absolute class 🎸
Phénoménal JEFF BECK
l'un des plus grands guitaristes de la deuxième moitié du XX siècle

i play sax and i must say that trumpet player has it all!!!
Wow, that's awesome. So many versions of the theme. Jeff Beck is so talented its scary...Horn section ROCKS! Great performance fellas
Mind blowing !! A perfect theme for new years eve
If you don't look at any other part of this video, look at the slide trombone from 2:48 to 3:40 !!
Indeed something, I kind of stumbled upon it by accident, and yes the drummer is something!
Trombone Shorty is there too ,on stage .
Brought the ‘bone into the 21st century!
Love Trombone Shorty
Saw Mancini do this live when I was a kid. One of the best songs ever. I'm even typing in time to the music...
Love it. Fantastic sound and the enthusiasm of the drummer is awesome.
Phil Collins?
Nope. Thought it was until 3:58 ish
very good rendition, probably the best iv,e heard , really course, basic--as gangster music should be. wjg.

Yeah, he caught my attention right off the bat.
EXCELLENCE ! I've always loved JB since the 70's. GOOD FREAKING JOB !
I've always thought that this piece was played too timidly so this is closer to an arrangement I'd enjoy playing on drums.
an absolute blast!!!! thank you!
HOLY EXCELLENT!! WITH HORNS AND JEFF BECK.
Trombone Shorty??
....and Blue LOU! Theres Paul Schaffer out there in the audience, too!
This will be the by a nose "place" to ELP's 1977 concert opener "win".
Wow! The definition of fantastic!

Foda pra caralho Jeff Beck e Trombone Shorty SENSACIONAL pqp

Love a good drummer with an attitude.........
I was 15 when this was originally done.. well done. Well done..
Beck is such an amazing musician.
My favorite version.
Magnifique...alors là ... j'adore...bravo...💕
Leo green on tenor one of the most underrated players around
Fantastic!

WOW!!!!!
This vid is off a DVD, a Jeff Beck night of tribute to Les Paul at Les's Iridium Club in NYC. The whole rest of the night was just as awesome as this.
Very good rendition.
Always loved when Tom Sizemore put down the pipe and played drums with Jeff!
Man this is RED HOT! Keep on "Rockin' " boys!
For some reason I'm getting this common section with the Emerson, Lake, and Palmer video. Best of both worlds!
That drummer is gettin with it!!!!!!!!!!!
not too shabby!! very entertaining!
Forever loved JB RIP
simpley superb
Ang the Saxaphone looks like JOHN lOVITZ...lOVE THAT STUFF
One of if not the best tv theme tunes
¡GENIOOOOOOOOOOS!....UDS. SON IMPAGABLES, NUNCA VISTO UN PETER GUNN ASÍ!!
Rock & Roll
Jeff Beck riding on the back of a tiger. You can't get off, just got to hang on and let it rip. Respect!
I played Trombone in school and never ascended about the level of crappy. The guy playing the trombone in this piece is off the hook good! Wow! That is what I aspired to be back in a day and never came remotely close.
I think that guy is Trombone Shorty (aka Troy Andrews) from NOLA. I caught him at the Hollywood Bowl and he is AMAZING!
Nothing better than Jeff Beck.
The drummer OWNS the beat on this number.
very happy to have seen this!
Phenomenal!
One of the best coverd ive heard
The drummer is ready: you can see it in his eyes ...
Best ever.
Thank you for good music!
Jeff Beck put these together ledgend
This ROCKS!!!!
Lou Marini on bari sax, Troy Andrews on bone... Greatness
Best version of this ever...........all the brass really makes this even HOTTER
Its nice thought but i really prefer Duanes Eddy even better than the original :D
Yes!
I really love this theme song of Peter Gunn I really like the Peter Gunn show
This is frickin awesome!
Excellent 👌🏽🔝💯❤
Awesome!
