This young genius of an artist is respecting all of his influences and masterfully designing his own voice. It's an amazing joy to witness. Jeff Beck is smiling and nodding in major approval of Matteo.
Yes camera position and lighting - camera person tried (th-cam.com/video/Mzu3SXTblU0/w-d-xo.html) but unfortunately, not good enough to use, better to stay on Matteo since only one camera, sadly for us and the great bass player. You'll notice audio only from the camera, not stage mixer feed, c'est la vie at least we all have this recording to enjoy :) @@aural_supremacy
I said the same thing! Major error from this lame cameraman. The bassist only appears briefly at 2:40 mark. His solo reminds me of Tal Wilkenfeld's solo during Beck's performance at Ronnie Scott's back in 2007...
Understand that when someone of real talent and skill plays a tune, a standard. Theyre never trying to fill boots, they're never trying to copy, and they're never trying to prove anything. Theyre just playing the music they like to play and that inspired him. He played the solo the way matteo would play it because he is... matteo. Simple as that. Sounded freaking awesome.
Matteo and his band are on tour now - september. They stay in touch with me. I believe this is the best version of this song The World welcome Matteo this summer
He is a genious of guitar and he. Is so much younger . Actualmente he is most best Electric guitarist of the World. His clear techcnique and feelling are admirable
The reigning king of thrones. He is in a class of his own. It's just incomprehensible that he or anyone can be this good. In my opinion, Matteo and Guthrie are the best two there is. They can do all styles and have zero limitations or weaknesses
Me too. Some people say he's just a shredder, but they don't get it at all. In this case he plays with a lot of respect for Beck's wonderful piece AND with a lot of feel and taste. He always does.
@@hendrikheemels8615 To me he is a musician's musician in much the same way Frank Zappa was but in a league of his own. His depth of knowledge of all genres and the speed with which he transfer his ideas to the strings is just astounding. Definitely not just another shredder.
I do not like people showing off. If you are a good player, just write your music and stop trying to "be better" than Jeff and Tal. They made an anthem from that tune, it´s theirs... Period.
Tal is a wonderful player with strong musical sense. Whoever played bass here should just find new work. That solo was a disgrace to the song. Jeff and Tal were really perfect for each other. Neither would ever think of playing anything like what I just heard here.
What this does emphasise is the very special force of nature that was Jeff Beck. You can play notes, but then Jeff Beck could play the notes and wring 100% of the emotion out of any piece.
I repeat myself. This is a tribute to Jeff, but played with Matteo Mancuso style. Its so difficult to understand? No one said Matteo plays like Jeff. Jeff is UNIQUE. But MM's tribute is very very good, 99% of comments, and also mine, said that is an incredible performance. He demonstrates love, admiration and respect for Jeff, one of his idols.
@@consulentecomunicazionestr3072 Don't waste your time debating or arguing with these crusty old guitar bores who pop up all the time. One of the most exciting guitarists around at the moment, Jeff would've been totally into his playing.
Matteo is a fantastic player -- to state the obvious. What makes Beck's recording special, IMO, is the way it slowly builds up to an intense crescendo and then gently backs off, gracefully returning to the opening bends. The overall piece had a distinctive shape, or narrative. Even in the best covers, like this one, the transition from slow to fast and back isn't quite as smooth and controlled. Still very impressive though.
Really people? Somebody make an effort to record and upload this, and all you can comment on is that he did not film the bassist? Although it is clear that an attempt was made, but the bassist was not visible from the camera position. Maybe time to be grateful for what we get than whining like spoiled brats for it not being a perfect recording. Thanks for the video! It is interesting to follow Matteo. A very interesting guitarist!
Jeff Beck was the best guitarist I ever saw in person on electric guitar. After seeing Guthrie live I realized why all Becks peers said he was truly of the the greatest.
This is a Jeff tribute, played obviously with Matteo Mancuso style. No one said Matteo plays like Jeff. Jeff is UNIQUE. But MM's tribute is very very good.
This is not a Jeff cover, neither imitation. This is a Jeff tribute, played obviously with Matteo Mancuso style. No one said Matteo plays like Jeff. Jeff is UNIQUE. But MM's tribute is very very good.
Matteo is an amazing guitar player but I don't think anyone nowadays will ever have the same feel as Jeff...he could have so much more feel in a single note than anyone else. Santana would always go on about having that one note that you put all your emotion in but the only player I ever got that with was Jeff. No one knows how he did it which is why he's the best.

The best solution would have been to just edit it out completely. Despite the obligatory participation award from a clueless crowd, it was a room-clearer. A real stinker he’d probably like to take back.
@@JesusGarcia-bu7tfGiven that the options are what we got or nothing, I think what we got is more than some people here deserve. Critisising a fan in the audience for not creating a perfect recording is being pretty entitled.
This is one of the most powerful and emotional songs Jeff Beck ever recorded. An instrumental piece that makes you wanna burst into tears and Matteo’s approach just doesn’t. Unfortunately Jeff’s touch cannot be matched nor replicated. Makes you realise why he was the guitarist’s guitarist, the one every other player looked up to for decades. Anyone can play the notes, nobody can do it the way he did. Don’t get me wrong, I like Matteo a lot and class him as a top player and a generational talent. I just think he tried to fill really big boots here and unfortunately he is going to be compared. Good news for him, I still haven’t heard anyone that really has filled Jeff’s boots…
He was not trying to fill any boots.. it's a tribute performance not a cover. Jeff is Jeff, amazing as is with no need to compare. Matteo is Matteo, amazing as is with no need to compare. Your opinion on "who did it better" is kinda redundant in this context tbh, even if I get where you're coming from. But commenting it is just like whatever man lol

Great guitar playing; great bass solo. Whoever filmed this is obviously not a musician. No love for the bassist? What? I think Matteo will get better when he works on his technique a bit . . . :}
Nah for me. I had the pleasure of seeing Jeff play this live and this doesnt come close to that experience. Mateo is a ridiculous player and his technique is frightening but you cant cover Jeffs signature piece & even hope to get close to that emotion.
This is a Jeff tribute, played obviously with Matteo Mancuso style. No one said Matteo plays like Jeff. Jeff is UNIQUE. But MM's tribute is very very good. One of his most stunning performances.
Probably his long time bassist from SNIPS band, Riccardo Oliva. They did the Jaco tune, The Chicken and also Spain a while back. He has another band that also recorded in his new album with bassist Stefano India. He plays with both. Both are excellent players.

I know what you mean, but I think the cameraman knew the assignment; we came to see Matteo and he didn't miss any Matteo. I've seen way too many videos miss time the transitions back and forth. I'll take this.
This is the late Jeffs signature track. This isn’t better than his legenday play. I’d prefer nrw original stuff from this band - and better drums. Sorry, I do not like it

This performance made my year! ❤
I a class all by himself, that's the best guitar solo I've ever heard.
i cant believe through the bass players solo this video didnt even film him or her .
Possibly only had one or two cameras which were not in position to film them, that’s the most likely reason.
Agree. Camera person should have known there would be other musicians playing on stage. Jeez

Another 2 minutes of my life I'll never get back listening to a bass sole. Bass players, if you want to play a solo buy a 6 string or a sax.
Thank you Matteo-put your heart and soul in it and certainly made Jeff proud---bass and drums were incredible.
Possibly only had one or two cameras which were not in position to film them, that’s the most likely reason.
Matteo amazing, but great bass playing too... and we didn't get a glimpse... what a shame... a bassist! ;-)
It´s interesting that so many great musicians have their root in italy. And Italy itself has a lot of great guitarists too.
It's our food.... 😀 - I Love Matteo's music!
I eat a lot of quavers , but it doesn’t help my guitar playing. 😶
Dudes a legend hands down! I play well but he’s a bloody genius!

The director forgot the bass player. anyway great Matteo, congratulations to the whole crew❤
beautiful this song is, like velvet. Great Mancuso
Matteo and his band are on tour now - september. They stay in touch with me. I believe this is the best version of this song The World welcome Matteo this summer
Thanks for the upload. I can hear Ricardo and Gianlu. It`s about time Matteo uses the volume knob on this song.
Very well done Gentlemen

Guthrie has a version of this song from years ago, but imo Matteo plays with much more feel. I agree it’s Guthrie and Matteo top two right now ❤❤
Grandissimo Matteo 👏👏👏👏👏
Sensationnel et professionnel ✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️🎇♥️🧑🎤
che fenomeno Matteo!
I remember someone saying that Jeff Beck was uncopyable. Not any more. And not a whammy bar in sight. I can't get enough of Matteo Mancuso's playing.
Me too. Some people say he's just a shredder, but they don't get it at all. In this case he plays with a lot of respect for Beck's wonderful piece AND with a lot of feel and taste. He always does.

Who the heck says he’s just a shredder!? Those people are clueless. He plays slow, fast, tastefully
Nothing will beat Tal Wilkenfelds bass solo on Jeff Becks Live at Ronnie Scotts.
I do not like people showing off.
If you are a good player, just write your music and stop trying to "be better" than Jeff and Tal.

Music is not a competition. If you are playing something to 'beat' someone you've already lost the plot.

Matteo, who is clearly a once-in-five-generations talent, demonstrates that one can't exceed Beck's emotion with the opening melody.
i thought he made the song his own in the worst way possible :a shred fest.
Jeff Beck was the best guitarist I ever saw in person on electric guitar. After seeing Guthrie live I realized why all Becks peers said he was truly of the the greatest.
Un mostro
I wish his sound was turned up higher for his solos in the middle of the jam..
❤
Big 🎸
Awesome camerawork, totally ignores the other instrumentalists during their solo. 1:32 onwards for example.
OMG! (Ostro Mancuso Govan)
Il nuovo fenomeno della chitarra
He’s very good but nobody will be able to replicate Beck’s sound and technique. I’m not a musician but an avid listener of music. Grazie Matteo.
As fantastic as Matteo is, and his technique might be better than Beck's, the original Beck instrumental is one of the best solos ever imho.
he ruined it with tapping madness like it's 1992
This is a Jeff tribute, played obviously with Matteo Mancuso style. No one said Matteo plays like Jeff. Jeff is UNIQUE. But MM's tribute is very very good.
It’s not all about technique,, technique should only enhance the music,,,
Roy Buchanan covered this tune also at the time Beck played this. A tip of the hat to each other. Check it out.
The single coils and the whammy bar make a big difference! Still very well played!!!

@@holland736 I seen him live playing it on a Strat always

1.25 - 4.06 amazing bass solo but lousy camera work. This camera guy only focuses on Matteo.
