Absolutely stunning! I had no idea that this version existed. It's my favourite song from the "Blow By Blow" album and this live performance is great. So sad to have lost the great Jeff Beck.
After all is said and done, Jeff Beck is THE greatest exponent of rock guitar there is. Jimmy Page was great in the studio with the Zeps, Hendrix was Hendrix, Eddie did some wild stuff, but in the end Beck stands alone. Tone. Speed. Lyricism. Soul. Time. Unique voice. Jeff Beck stands alone.
Page was great live. Duane Allman was a master as is Eric Clapton. Allan Holdsworth is an innovator. Beck is my favourite. Beck and Hendrix and Holdsworth
Yeah, he's the nonpareil in my book. I gotta say, though, that the man can't sing; but then, that's like saying Babe Ruth wasn't a good base stealer. As Beck says, let the guitar do the singing.
Elke Oliver Saw this myself in Dallas in July of the same year. Neil and Gregg of Journey ( who opened) watched from the side of the stage floor right in front of me and I remember Neil just shaking his head in amazement at Jeff as he played this melancholy masterpiece.
And Jan Hammer once said that the guitar is dead, and that everything that can be done has already been done on it. He said this while working with Jeff Beck. Unbelievable how he could have had that perspective.
People used to be very disrespectful at live shows back then. Reminds me of those Pink Floyd bootleg shows with the constant whistling that just kill the music and the vibe of the performers.
I recall one where they come to a dead stop in the middle of "Echoes" or something similarly transcendent, apparently due to fighting in the audience, and Gilmour says something like "Y'know it's difficult enough without you beating the fuck out of each other out there."
How dare. He is artist who interoperates jazz that only he can do it. All the other people is just replaying what they learned in school. Then there is also guy like Tommy Bolin which guys like Billy Cobham, Jan Hammer. played. He didn't play jazz. he simply played a guitar and damn well.

Amen to that

The greatest lyricist on the electric guitar....ever....

not sure if anyone is going to get how much this should have been a track on Last Tango in Parris

yeah because it is bullshit.
Esta é a primeira vez que ouço "Diamond Dust" que não é de estudio. Ou seja 1ª vez ao vivo com Jeff Beck.
