There must be thousands around the world wondering why they are finding hard to smile...because Jeff has left the stage...I could not listen to Jimi for a decade, still doesn't feel right...tears in my eyes... Stay strong keep playing x
Same here! I am watching regularly and it is great to listen to his story through his music. I and my fellow students at Sutton East had him come in with a jumble of wires and pieces of wood. We were 13 years old, and in Art one or two, doing a special 13 Plus Art course, and he was new to the class that year. He went through the class to the back of the room and sat in the Art Teacher's store room on the floor with that bundle and began fiddling. The boys next to him relayed the message that he was trying to make a guitar. Moments later we suddenly heard some blues music. I was amazed that he could get notes out of that strange bundle, but best of all that I could hear blues notes-Had had he done that?? At that moment, as a piano player myself at 13, I recognised the blues in the minor chord, which I loved and I did not take to Rock and Roll in the Major chord., and felt sure that he wanted to play something that would be different to anyone else. It was very exciting in 1959, Sutton Surrey. I followed anything about him after we had all left but then lost touch with his music. It was not until Beck Bogart and Appice, -AGES LATER that I picked up again, and followed his music from then on. I am very sad that he has left the world but so glad that I can catch up on TH-cam!! I can see him standing on a cloud playing his own music in the sunlight!! Cynthia Allen McLaglen
Dolly,this is quite an incredible thing to hear,Thanks for sharing...Jeff Beck building his first guitar or two was always legend! I was at this show,and followed Jeff everywhere,all the way until his final show,pure joy seeing him play,he is missed!
I couldn't agree more! I was telling someone recently that there were only a few guitarists who changed how the guitar was played. Hendrix was one. Eddie Van Halen was another. They definitely left their mark. Jeff Beck didn't do that. He was so much better that no one could copy what he was doing. Although many tried, they all came up short. Jeff was truly one of a kind! RIP JB.
Loving this and watching the many TH-cam videos I’m now finding of Jeff Beck. I hope they stay available as I need to see and watch as well as listen to Jeff Beck. RIP Jeff Beck, a heartbreaking loss to music and humankind 🙏🎶❤️
Jeff doesn't mess around; starts right out with an incredible song by the world's greatest electric guitarist; none other than the Maestro; Mahavishnu John McLaughlin, then rips into the epic piece, Star Cycle; you knew it was going to be an incredible show already!
If anyone hasn’t time to watch the whole event WATCH and listen to 45mins up to 50 mins with your best headphones airpods on …. Just a joy to see him interact and enjoying showing off a bit ❤🎶 But how can I possibly pick one piece out when every piece is the best piece?! No words ❤
I was at this show,and on the entire 2004 Jeff Beck UK tour. A few things stand out. 1) I spotted Jan Hammer when on my Hotel's balcony,2nd floor,and yelled hey Jan,and said can't wait to see you tomorrow! 2) Ron Wood,signed the Hand out for me,with a drawing. 3)Nancy Sorrell,was so nice,and couldn't believe I was waiting in the rain for Jeff to arrive at Royal Albert Hall. 4)When Jeff played acoustic,'Nothing But Love'there was on the screen a touching video,that was in animation,that was about Love,but also sad...5) There was big rumours the Jeff Beck Group with Rod Stewart playing,I know more,but I'll say it just turned out to be Ron Wood that night... Couple years earlier I was at the Retrospective (3) Shows,and a few years later I was at Ronnie Scott's Residency,I followed Jeff everywhere all the way until his final show 11-12-2022 Grand Sierra Resort & Casono,Reno,Nevada.Jeff Beck,The Best That Ever Was,The Best That Ever Will Be. And a kind person,I think of his friends,and dear wife Sandra,and how he is missed dearly...
Those lucky folks at the Royal Hall; you know it sounds so great in person.... Thank you Miles Beyond, and TH-cam. And Jeff and Jan and the rhythm section.
On y était pour cette grande soirée, soirée qui correspondait à son anniversaire à Jeff Beck. Top de le voir avec Jan Hammer... Exceptionnel le Royal Albert Hall Festival, très bonne acoustique. Merci de partager ce concert.
@@milesbeyond9101 I can only imagine! There was always fireworks when they played together, and you're very lucky to have seen them together trading licks. Thanks again for the post - I watch it regularly! 🙂
Jan Hammer was the best at making a keyboard sound like a guitar. And Beck countered as the best at making a guitar sound like a keyboard. You had to pay close attention as to who was playing what part. That's about as tight as it gets.
Jan Hammer was channeling Jeff when he played his solos when they played Starcycle. Actually, I think Jan may have been channeling Jeff every time he played his keyboards after they got together in the mid 70s
Thanks for posting! Despite viewing Jeff Beck videos for years, TH-cam algorithms have hidden this gem until now. While of course, Jan Hammer is easily recognized, who is on the drums and bass? And who is the first woman singing? (The second is Imogen Heap)
Jeff, as always, kills it. Pretty good production from audience cameras. And I was captivated by Imogen Heap’s fiery red ceremonial Klingon headpiece! Was Ron Wood’s guitar plugged in? Near the end of the evening he reminded me of the drunk guy at a party that the other guests pray will lay down so he eventually falls asleep. RIP Jeff Beck.
I never thought that people would give a shit about the clothes that someone is wearing when its clearly obvious that the person plays his ass off and is a hell of a musician not to mention wrote quite a bit of music for jeff

I’ve never seen Jeff Beck playing acoustic guitar before. Very lovely. This show is terrific. So wish I’d had the sense to go to these shows back then

That’s so lovely to read. Thank you ❤
"There are many of great guitarists 🎸

I couldn't agree more!

R.I.P. dear Jeff...

RIP Jeff Beck, a heartbreaking loss to music and humankind 🙏🎶❤️
I do the same and agree with everything you say!
@@bobperry1647 so grateful we have TH-cam…. I hope all this footage is kept safely somehow.
The masterit !! was a provilige to see JEFF in my first 2 wks. in LONDON!!
Jeff doesn't mess around; starts right out with an incredible song by the world's greatest electric guitarist; none other than the Maestro; Mahavishnu John McLaughlin, then rips into the epic piece, Star Cycle; you knew it was going to be an incredible show already!
Star Cycle”? Ok, thought it was “Blue Wind!
you got that right he dont mess around
A rare treat to see Jeff on an acoustic
was just thinking as I reflect on his death, I don't think I've ever seen Jeff play an acoustic...and then here it is. -P
If anyone hasn’t time to watch the whole event WATCH and listen to 45mins up to 50 mins with your best headphones airpods on …. Just a joy to see him interact and enjoying showing off a bit ❤🎶

"There's guitarists, and then there's Jeff Beck." Jimmy Page
Ditto. (and Jimmy Page would know!
That was said by Paul Rodgers. Page said “when Jeff’s on, he’s the best there is”.
@@michaelmann2094 Page also said: "It has to be seen to be believed"..
There are many great guitarists; and then there's J........
@@prajnachan333 True.
I've never seeing só much good Jam like that's thank you
I've seen him many times but have never heard him cover McLaughlin before
Thanks for posting. I was there.
QEPD One more of Divine Hand for playing solos of Guitarr Mágics and Very Heavy. ✌️ 👍 🙏
Nobody else can make a stratocaster 🎸 sing like Jeff Beck 👍‼️
Thanks for posting, this is brilliant. Jeff Beck w Jan Hammer, insane duo of legends, and the Montesir brothers do a solid job, as well.
It’s another hauntingly beautiful sound (first track) ❤🎶

Jeff Beck ... 'nuff said ....
An absolute gem of a post - thank you Miles Beyond. RIP Jeff Beck, forever in our hearts.
Thank you. I was there that night to see Jeff on his birthday. A dream come true to see Beck and Hammer in RAH.
@@milesbeyond9101 I can only imagine! There was always fireworks when they played together, and you're very lucky to have seen them together trading licks. Thanks again for the post - I watch it regularly! 🙂
I have never heard a guitar player making those warbling bends Jeff made with the whammy. Jan Hammer can do it, truly amazing.
Jan Hammer was the best at making a keyboard sound like a guitar. And Beck countered as the best at making a guitar sound like a keyboard. You had to pay close attention as to who was playing what part. That's about as tight as it gets.
Yes! Unbelievable! At first I thought the video was out of sync! 😃
Yes, and a great reason to enjoy watching as well as listening ❤
Intro w/ all the feel of McLaughlin - Mahavishnu amplified /magnified; so powerful , Jeff!!
Then the number 4 item - Rockit?! Herbie Hancock, or what!?
I seen him 4 times 76 with jan band with Steve von and Santana no one can touch him
It was Jeff’s birthday; I’ve just realised ❤
My favorite
Jan Hammer was channeling Jeff when he played his solos when they played Starcycle. Actually, I think Jan may have been channeling Jeff every time he played his keyboards after they got together in the mid 70s
Thanks for posting! Despite viewing Jeff Beck videos for years, TH-cam algorithms have hidden this gem until now.
While of course, Jan Hammer is easily recognized, who is on the drums and bass? And who is the first woman singing? (The second is Imogen Heap)
Jeff Beck - guitar
Jan Hammer - keyboards
Mike Mondesir - bass
Mark Mondesir - drums
With guests : Imogen Heap, Nancy Sorell and Ron Wood
@@naruichimakoto Thanks for the reply. Brothers are on bass and drums?
Jeff, as always, kills it. Pretty good production from audience cameras. And I was captivated by Imogen Heap’s fiery red ceremonial Klingon headpiece! Was Ron Wood’s guitar plugged in? Near the end of the evening he reminded me of the drunk guy at a party that the other guests pray will lay down so he eventually falls asleep. RIP Jeff Beck.
have always wondered what that Mesa is behind him
Only two pedals? So many lesser guitarists fill their closets with effects!
This concert's about 18 years old. I've seen a more recent show where he has a pretty good sized pedal board.
@@xmandlt yea his pedal board now is huge
Jimi left his rig there to borrow I see.
Jeff looks like a rock god. Jan Hammer more like a substitute teacher....
Please respect....jan look like titular math teacher with weekend clothes
I never thought that people would give a shit about the clothes that someone is wearing when its clearly obvious that the person plays his ass off and is a hell of a musician not to mention wrote quite a bit of music for jeff
1:18:00 what is this track?
Did Jeff drive his hot rod to the gig?
Ronnie Wood ? Couldn’t string Jeff’s guitar 😞
I always thought he was damn good early on with Rod, the early days.
You know that ronnie played bass in the jeff beck group right?
@@knightfall9394 Yes .
Even Wood said he couldn't do what he did why put him down
@@rogeratkinson5252 I saw Ronnie with The Stones when he joined after previously having seen Mick Taylor with them . Night and day difference imo
Better than mahavidhnou orchestra
Not the best Jeff gig I’ve seen .
I thought he was not very good at all. I have no idea why he's famous!
Who are the other musicians. Bass and drums
