The video story:
I got pulled into making this video by a great question from a member of five watt world. I came back around to studying the great blues artists AFTER spending years listening to jazz players playing bop ideas over blues changes at all levels. But working on my theory and playing took me back to the roots and I was amazed at the levels of detail in their playing. It's almost bottomless! And that gives me confidence that I'll always be able to learn more down that road.
We'll see if the album histories take off maybe we'll make some more.
I hope you enjoy it. Let me know.
Until next time, thanks for being a part of the five watt world.
Keith

My friend John and I saw The Bluesbreakers with Eric, play live at a pub in N. London called The Golders Green Refectory. At the gig Mayall announced that they had just finished recording an album that day at Decca, it turned out to be the Beano album. There was about fifty people at that gig and we spoke to Eric and Hugh Flint in the toilets. They could'nt believe that we had hitchhiked from Cardiff (150 miles) just to see them, they bought us a pint. Those were the days.
Great story! Thanks
what a wonderful story......
That's a great bit of history Peter. 150 miles would be about 3 hours travel I guess, hope you stayed in London for a day or two.
Thanks Mate for a piece of history! I'd buy you a pint just to hear the tale.🍻
Awesome story! those were glorious days!
Beano is a killer album. However "A Hard Road" showed Peter Green unafraid to step in and make his own mark. One MUST own both.
A Hard Road is a much better record. I'm a big Peter Green fan, though.
Matt Gertsch I’m of the opposite opinion.
They're both excellent LP's. The next LP with Mick Taylor, Crusade, stands tall with both of them.
BB King is well known to have said that Peter Green is the only guitarist who could give him the cold sweats.
If you’ve heard them play live with green they were at their best. Absolutely unstoppable it’s like the equivalent of if you could hear the feeling of getting hit by a freight train
Amazing Hypes! A great new addition to the series. Love it!
Thanks Hypes!
Rick Beato! Love you Man!
@@fernandoreynaaguilar1438 wow way to show love back and reciprocate lol. Shit man you didn't even get a like. Here I'll give you a like.
YES!! One of my favorite albums of all time.
Definitely a landmark record (in my humble opinion). Some records are like an encyclopedia of licks... this one has a notch up there in that.
I think just about all guitar players would put this album high on their list of favorites. It really did change the world of guitar for the better.
Made my day when you sat in Righteous guitars and played that fragment of "Dance the Night Away".
I'm trying to cover this whole album
A seminal work.
In 67, as a High School jr, in Queens, a friend whose mother was English, turned me on to the Beano album. He'd been in London and came back raving about two things: the Who and Clapton. I was gobsmacked.I became a blues freak from then on. I literally spent the rest of my high school weekends at the Filmore East. I have seen the best players up close but my passion has always been English blues. This is the best Beano doc. Great Work. Now, onward to Mike Bloomfield !!
The Beano album with Eric Clapton is THE definitive Blues Breakers LP. Although I also love the two following LPs, A Hard Road and Crusade, featuring guitarists Peter Green and Mick Taylor respectively, the Clapton album stands far above everything else in Mayall's catalog. My favorite thing to do when listening to the Beano album is to mute the "band-side" channel during the guitar solos so that you can only hear Clapton's guitar, as the classic 60's stereo mix often puts the guitar on one side only. Certain songs, such as "Have You Heard," feature Clapton's blistering guitar solo coming out of one speaker with absolutely nothing else in that speaker, so that when you separate it, it's extremely intense, especially those long-held notes with Clapton's vibrato. Insanely amazing album!
Great day when I bought this album without a hint of how it would change my life...now I'm a guitar nut and Eric's tone etc still are goals. I was young then and now I'm 76...but I remember that afternoon and seeing/buying the album in Fresno...
Keith, I spent years acquiring guitars, amps, and (so many) pedals chasing various tones, including purchasing and lugging around a Leslie that I used on just a few songs. Now whenI get tempted to acquire more gear I sit down and practice for a while and accept that the only thing that makes me a better sounding player is spending time PLAYING the instruments that I already own. Thank you for another great video, but mostly for reminding us that the great players got that way by playing and developing their own styles.
jts3339 well said! I couldn’t agree more.
I always say that the weak link is me. There is no guitar or amp that will help me at this time. It’s practice that is needed.
jts3339 ...very well said...and I agree 100%
Oh so very true. And this translates into every endeavor, be it golf, carpentry, shooting sports, machinist or model building. It's not the gear or equipment that makes one a proficient master of his craft. It's skill obtained thru practice. And as is said "practice makes perfect ".
Yep. The imput jack is the hands backed by a bit of soul.
I agree, once you get a GOOD guitar and amp. I can remember struggling when in my teens, and all the while saving my $. When I was able to own a guitar that felt like shaking hands with an old friend it changed things significantly. It may be half psychological, but for me exists nonetheless. When I added a good amp, and I am just talking about a used Hot Rod Deluxe, I truly yearned to practice and play every second.
Love that album and remember playing it the first time. After that I realized just how much I love the Marshall/Gibson tone.
My guitar instructor believed this album to be the Holy Grail of guitar tone. He spent years through the 80s and 90s tracking down vintage gear to recreate it. He had 60s era cables a same year Les Paul and Marshall Amp. I remember visiting him one time and seeing his setup in his living room. Must of cost him thousands.
Dozens of thousands would probably be closer.
@@bradcarroll3719 Not in the 80's. Les Pauls were to be had for about $2,000. Later on the Japanese began buying up most of them and prices. hit $40,000 pretty fast. Prices now are just absurdly crazy.
I can confirm that...I had a deal for a 1959 Les Paul for $3,000 in 1982. It was an outrageous sum for the day, so I passed.Who knew I could've paid off my house with it.
Your guitar instructor should have known it is all in the fingers... no cables, amps or any gizmos can do it,
if you cant. If you cant play it on an acoustic guitar, you are not ready, not worth.. simple as that.
@@tomasvanecek8626 then why did Eric Clapton use amps and an Les Paul if he could have just used his fingers and an acoustic guitar?
Full disclosure: I’m not that interested in Eric Clapton or the Beano album. The fact that I watched and enjoyed it says volumes about the infectiousness of your enthusiasm and quality of your videos. Keep them coming, please.
Thanks for wading through it David. Danke.
Bo you cray
It's kind oof like Behind the Music (or documentaries in general). I can have zero interest in a band, but I know they are important historically and I watch and can't help but be interested. Learning things is cool, even if you end up still deciding to pass on them moving forward. I didn't start listening to a bunch of Skynyrd after watching the doc on Netflix, but I did enjoy it for what it was.
You never played guitar... or did you ?
One of my favourite albums, definitely a “desert island disk.” Clapton on fire. Thanks so much for this history.
Once again you've hit another Grand Slam!
I look forward to your videos and enjoy ALL of them.
Thank you for your craftsmanship
Love the new format experiment! I still love the short history of individual pieces of guitar, but I'd be quite happy to see this treatment for other albums too. I'd also say there's nothing wrong with leaning into getting nerdy about the minutiae of the gear. Others have done great videos on the playing on seminal albums, but nobody seems to get the gear right! Your meticulous approach to researching this stuff is very much appreciated.
Im a BIG fan of RICK BEATO and love your channel.....
Thank you Kieth, your ability to find the “keys to the highway” are as strong as ever! The rabbit hole might already be open...but how about following this theme down through ‘A Hard Road’ into the formation of Green’s Fleetwood Mac? A tone almost as sought after and legendary...
I’m already working on a video about “Beano on a Budget” but we’ll see how well this does to look to the future of album short histories. It was fun to make w David and Jeff.
@@fivewattworld look forward that if it goes ahead.
Sweat smoke and mileage... best way to describe a blues rock instrument ever
Thank you for the opportunity to be involved in such a quality video on one of my favorite records! I learned a lot! Great stuff man!!
As the saying goes, "The pleasure was mine" brother. You did some great playing for this. Thanks again for coming along for the ride.
As much as I love SRV, Clapton is always on the top of my list for his diversity and always improving vocal skills.
Possibly the greatest compliment of all came from Jimi, stopped his gig, "Lets play some Cream" I cannot remember the gig but unless I am going senile that happened.
Spartanm333, it was during a live BBC programme called the Lulu show in January 1969 that Jimi played Voodoo Chile, and then was meant to play Hey Joe with singer Lulu joining Jimi for a planned “duet”. Jimi and the Experience started Hey Joe but stopped the song and made a dedication to The Cream (who had just split up) and tore into a version of Sunshine of your love, going past the point (time wise) where Lulu might have joined the band, and indeed played through the time allocated for talking at the end. The producer was apparently pointing to his watch and silently screaming at the band to stop. The clip is widely available on the Internet.
@@craigthomson3621 It was brilliant - I remember it well! Consternation at the BBC - Saturday schedules awry!
@@Spartanm333 It was on the Lulu Show - they cut him off at the end.
Great video. I'm fascinated with the history of the music of those times. At the time so many things get done without intense thought or as part of a plan. Someone lights a cigarette and smokes it just because he wants one but maybe that cigarette lends an edge to a voice that years later becomes a factor that can in no way be ascertained with any kind of certainty. Add all those random acts together, especially in recorded music, and you can, and want to, listen to that totality of actions for the rest of your life. Thanks for this examination of the Beano album.
Thanks for the video, great job.
This is a good starting point to getting into what those Mississippi/Chicago blues guys were doing after WWII and into the 1950's. The guys Clapton was so influenced by. I'd love to see a video about them and their gear. Especially since they were probably playing some cranked small amps.
Just brilliant! You got it all here Keith, the mike placements, Eric's pickup /tone choices, Vernon's & Dungeon's reactions during the recording - fine research, well done with your usual impeccable delivery. This is the watershed of the Beano Album's context! All praise to you.
Excellent short film, Keith. I love your stuff on guitars and gear but this outing into album history was really interesting. More, please.
Thanks! I downloaded the deluxe version and have been re-discovering it.
Dude! I am eating up these history lessons. There's a depth to your analysis that belies a depth of soul. Digging this FWW trip!
Thanks Bill.
Keith, didn't take your initial suggestion BUT I have Beano on now while I bought a new Five Watt T-shirt. Excellent, just plain excellent video. Thanks from Colorado.
Thanks for the support Craig.
another great piece on the rock and blues bands ,gear they use and diffrences in tonal structures,,thank you .😊
I'd heard references to your channel quite frequently on TH-cam without actually 'tuning in'. Well now I'm here and kicking myself for not being here sooner. The last minute of this video illustrates your integrity to a 'T' . You credit everyone who assisted by name and occupation. Have to go now and watch more .
Thanks! Welcome to five watt world!
. I was into Cream growing up but didn’t know anything about this record . I knew it existed and people held it in high regard at some point but avoided listening to older blues as a teen because of New Wave. Now I’m digging into these other recordings I missed. Thank you for the back story.
Hi Keith - First off thanks again for your excellent videos, and 'The Beano Album: A Short History' is especially good. I thought I'd tell you a Clapton story from just a little before that time which people might find interesting. On 6th June, 1964, when I was 16 I went to see the Yardbirds at the Trade Union Hall in Watford, England, especially to hear this fantastic guitarist we'd heard about.
Well, there he (God) was, up there on the stage about twenty feet or so from us at the front left side. I have a photographic memory, and I remember EC was playing something like a Hofner (!) but behind him propped up on a cane chair was either a red Gibson 330 or 335 - a real hot item in those days in England especially! Well, right on the end of a solo, EC stepped back across the stage and crashed that brand new 330/335 off the chair and onto the floor, and broke the neck. He was devastated, as you can imagine and wasn't the same for the rest of the evening! But being a teenager at that time and seeing EC close up made a huge impression and of course the guitar was IT from then on... unfortunately for me the talent didn't come with it! Cheers 😀
You've put together a really great channel here! Your approach is very well organized, thought out, and produced. Keep doing what (and mostly how) you're doing!
Good one , man! This album changed my as a young player. Still have the dog pissing and spray painted "Clapton is God' poster up 🤘
Thanks for a informative and enjoyable video. The sleeve notes to the 80s issue of the Beano album on cd by John Tracey are also an excellent source of information 😎
Excellent work miss playing along with that record with my fender and Marshall
This is a great album but in my opinion Clapton really took blues rock to another level on Fresh Cream. Fantastic video. Thanks for taking the time to make it!
Two tiny slips - it's Alexis Korner, not Alex. And we pronounce Bernard with the accent on the first syllable over here. Please forgive me - I'm an old pedant. And thanks again for all your videos - great stuff to watch as we all huddle around our screens in lockdown.
Well Steve, I’m sure you’d find my attempts at an Oxbridge accent a wee bit more offensive than these two slips here.
Always glad for the help though.
My name is Bernard, as was my Father’s, as is my son’s. Here in Chicago, other than family, nobody accents the first syllable of my (our) name. There was a time, long ago, that I would be quite irritated by that. These days, I simply, meekly, accept that which I cannot seem to control.
@@jpetes9046 If you visit Ireland ... they'll call you BERNard, and if you go to Paris, it'll be BernAR(d).... but, it's all good!
Loved it Keith! Thanks for your efforts.
Thanks Rick!
Keith... this was awesome! Great insight to an amazing album!
Thanks Chaz!
As always, your research and attention to detail is exceptional. Thanks for sharing this with us. Appreciate it.
One of my favorite albums of all time. Thank you.
I remember first hearing this album in highschool 1967......a few years after I started playing guitar......still listen to it today.......saw Duane Allman play and got hooked on his playing more than the clap ....... nothing like the tone of a LP through a Marshall.....
Fantastic video!! I initially thought I heard you stating that EC used a Mk I combo, but was mainly confused by the factory promo photos of the Mk I and not the Mk II. I think the jury might still be out on which tubes his transitional Mk II utilized? Thanks on your efforts to put this together for us. Spot on!!
Hurray - a new FWW. And looking at the Beano album. Hope you and yours are staying safe and well. All the best from plague-ridden England.
Thanks Mr. Guitar geeek!
Look so forward to your videos
Real good stuff here, Keith. EC's sound is still in his fingers and his head and his ears. Those early hand built Marshalls had some crazy tone. And the old Les Pauls too. John Mayall is an overlooked Blues Master. Thank you for another deep dig.
Brilliant video , thank you , I’ve just read in Clapton’s auto biography that it was indeed a Les Paul that he left behind in Greece ,
Excellent video. I had a few different stories about how The Blues breakers came together;great to get the straight of it 🎸👍
I've got an early pressing of the Beano album, but the one I really want is A Hard Road with Peter Green...!
Loved being guided through the history of the album! Now i have to listen to it ;°)
The Beano album and the first Paul Butterfield album were the first two blues albums I bought when they first came out. I'm looking at the framed covers on my wall while watching this vid. And, yes, I worked backwards from there to find the originators of the blues. Thanks for posting all the details.
Had a band in high school covering the Stones, Animals, Them, Kinks etc. Then got those two LPs and basically morphed into a blues band - completely unaware at the time where that music came from. Whenever I play them (often) I get a major nostalgia rush and my mind blown by Clapton and Bloomfield!
you and a few thousand of us.
It’s always a great day when FWW posts a video but this one was the best yet!
Good job with this one Keith. Hell, what am I talking about , you always do a good job with your research and everything that goes with putting one of these together. I remember buying this alum on the recommendation of a high school friend, it disappeared many years ago I'm sorry to say. You take care.....
Album.......... not alum. Sorry.
As always you bring music history to life and bid those who tag along to relive it.
Back to the cellar again, damnit, because I believe there is a copy of this down there. Probably have not listened to it in 25 years. And now, thanks to you, my Grandson thinks I am a guitar player.
Thanks again Keith for another great short history.
Thanks for watching Michael.
Keith, this is a great video. I don’t know how you can pack so much information into such a short span of time, but you do so consistently. On this effort, I heard and saw a lot of familiar material, corrected a lot of misinformation I had accumulated over the years, surprised me with a lot of new information I really appreciate, and left me in the end with a renewed excitement about a record I haven’t listened to in years. Thanks again.
Love that album. The first notes of the solo to “All Your Love” give me goosebumps during my air guitar. I much prefer the mono version too, just seemed more immediate than the stereo version. Thanks Keith, and all those involved, great video and history of a trusty great album.
Thanks for watching Eric.
Yup, the stereo version sounds a bit ‘manufactured’, probably because some of the ‘freestyle’ elements had to be, more or less, replicated and the relevant track(s) remixed.. See, also, my comment, above.
I love this series keith! the beano album just hits different man yk?
Outstanding episode Keith and all involved ! 😎🎸
Thanks Todd. It was fun.
God stuff... great to see there’s still a buzz around this classic album... keep it burnin! Mike
What a fun video Keith! I got to play that beano reissue guitar at Chicago music exchange in I think 2012. I actually played it into a Marshall head and a full stack but I am not sure if both cabs were on now. I remember it sounded very bright, but I had no experience with the controls on either piece of gear. I fiddled with it, but I sounded bad. They displayed the guitar on top of a large piano, and it was 8995.99. I left thinking I wasn’t too impressed but that was really because I just couldn’t play the thing well enough which goes to your point about the guys playing what notes they did. Thanks for your videos man!
Most of the new LPs just don't sound right Like the old ones.anyways
Clapton probably paid $200 for his.
Could be right about the price. I have learned that it was probably me that it sounded bad. But I still would not choose the tribute guitar. Once you have a decent guitar, the rest is up to you I guess lol
What a great 'short history' - thanks! I learned a lot about this seminal record.
Really enjoy all of your videos, and your Short History video series are great for history geeks, like me. :)
Thanks Five Watt World, for all you do for musicians, and music!
Eric Clapton was the reason I wanted to learn guitar. Took a week of guitar at music camp the summer before third grade, learned a very watered down version of Layla, and demanded that my classically trained, band director father get me a guitar. I even had an Eric Clapton greatest hits eight-track in the old Chevy pickup I drove in high school. Clapton was god to me then, though nowadays he is more like Zeus in my pantheon of guitar gods.
scholarly researched and wonderfully presented. Thank you!
Thanks John
Keith, as always, I am impressed by the level of research and insight you bring to these videos. The Beano record is one of my favorites. When I was cutting my teeth as a guitarist in high school I used to rush home from school to jam along to that record with my Les Paul Studio and a Marshall combo (it was a JCM 800, but it was close enough for me at the time). I still think Clapton’s tone and playing on that record is among his best. Thanks for plugging my band, Exebelle, as well. My bandmate, Phil Heesen, got me that Five-Watt World mug for Christmas and I love it. I swear that coffee actually tastes better in that mug! Keep up the great work.
Glad you liked the video Kerry. I’m glad to support fww musicians n any small way I can.
One day up at the old L&M Music in Chattanooga I played a 1974X Marshall 18 watt with a Les Paul Classic Goldtop LP with a 60's neck ......and I was in a room by myself thanks to my friend Paul ...letting me do that and I dont claim to get the exact sound but I got dang close !!! And I had no pedal ...just a cable ...but it was amazing !!
Love your videos! I look forward to them.Its amazing how much I learn from these short videos.Keep em coming🎸🎸🎸
Thanks KW. Another solid effort.
Thanks man
Another fascinating vid from Keith. A departure from his usual “A Brief History of” stuff, but still made for essential viewing.
Glad you liked it Kevin
five watt world You haven’t published a bad video yet. Just keep doing it!
I don’t want to sound like a fanboy, but your videos have no equal that I am aware of.
Huge love and respect to you and yours from me and mine.
You are one of TH-cam’s gems.
Aha! So that's the Marshall that Clapton left behind. It's cool to hear the abridged story behind that. Just watched the JTM 45 vid so I thought I'd refresh my memory and watch this afterwards. 👍
Awesome video Keith. A couple of years ago I luckily picked up a Marshall Class 5. It's a great small, inexpensive amp for that early Marshall sound.
Fascinating. Good work!
I'm spinning this LP right this minute. I would love for Rick to do a What Makes This Song Great with a song from this album just so we could see how much of Eric's amp bleeds into the other tracks.
I wonder if he has the tracks for this....hmmmm....
Hearing the isolated guitar would be very revealing
Would love to hear this!
Do Clapton's insane take on Freddy King's Hideaway!
sniff rat Clapton's isolated guitar on "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" is interesting, sounds so different than when it's mixed in with everything else
I just started listening to this album! Perfect timing!
Please do another video like this one album tones!! PS I’m glad you talked about the effect of transformers on the sound quality of vintage recording gear.
One of my favorite albums of all time. As a relative youngster I remember being in a Cream phase and getting this album on CD and spinning it for the first time in a discman with headphones during a family road trip. I listened to nothing else that whole drive from Jacksonville to Atlanta. Great music during formative playing years
Great video Keith. This is a fabulous story and a brilliant album!
John Mayall cooked me shepherd's pie, his mother's recipe, one night at his home in LA back in the late 70's. He was good friends with my producer bud, Don Nix and I was invited up for dinner. Rock royalty coming and going everywhere!
Keith, Ive run out of superlatives...just another riveting video, fantastic job and kudos to you and your team, again. Ive been a Clapton fan my whole life and I still heard a bunch of things I had never known, killer video.
AWESOME Epidosde Kieth!!!! And great advice!! My Fav YT channel! Stay safe, healthy and Groovy!!
Thanks man. Stay home and practice brother,
After watching the Les Paul shirt history episode I started listening to some Les Paul plyers and albums, and spent my last 5 or 6 days listening to this particular album!
Perfect timing. Really struggling right now with too much stuff (like many) and felt such a huge relief when I saw your video and knew, for a little while, I could turn everything else off. Thanks!
Thank you for your attention to detail, Keith. Wow!
What a wonderful glimpse into that music scene...
Early Clapton & Beck bends is what me to the 2 whole note bends! Well, Dave Gillmore had a hand there
Thanks for this video. Anything you do next will be fine with me. But that was a great period, with Fleetwood Mac, Canned Heat, etc.
Coming out of your comfort zone, yet remain gear oriented. With that touch of tours. I love it, man!
Thanks Avi
@@fivewattworld hey,
You never told me what you thought about that piece of music i sent you. Did you get the link?
You really did a fantastic job on this one. Glad to see the Rangemaster myth challenged. So tired of that. Great research as always
You forgot to mention the Bluesbreakers' short lived stint on Immediate records which produced the awesome 'I'm Your Witchdoctor'.
I think this is where the Rangemaster enters the story. Jimmy Page ( who at this point was friendly with Eric ) used a Rangemaster & was also
the Producer of the Witchdoctor sessions.
I always regarded "For Your Love" as the B side of "Got to Hurry". That was the side that I played the grooves off. The album was known to me as the "Mayall/Clapton" album.
Never heard it called the "Beano" album until the internet came along and noobs started going on about "God" as a sign of belonging.
I had some Bluesbreakers Decca singles bought from a little record shop tucked under the skirts of the ABC cinema on the crest of Muswell Hill.
I always wanted to hear the straight poop on those saxes employed to ape Eric's low end chordal punctuation.
It was almost an article of faith that Eric's reading of Hideaway was a single unbroken take and it certainly gained from the sympathetic contribution of the McVie and Mayall.
Standing outside the Manor House that summer waiting to be let in to listen to Peter Green, I clearly recall John McVie getting off a bus (probably a 19 or a 38, I don't recall) carrying his P bass.
Just the P Bass, not in a case, not even in a brown paper bag. Fortunately it was a dry evening it has to
And it has to be said, I was never a big Mayall fan, even in the early days.
The record that had the most impact back then was the eponymous first Paul Butterfield Blues Band album.
It has always been in my top five, always will be.
A timeless classic for “Steppin Out” alone. 1966 was an unparalleled year.
Real final thoughts, great video. The recording details and photos I've never seen are incredible. Rumour has it, Clapton's guitar was so loud it's still being heard near former Decca studios "to this day!"
Very enjoyable and interesting... these short snippets of rock history are so well done.
Clapton’s lines just flow on these recordings. Such amazing phrasing and feel. Keith, thanks for such an in depth and revealing short history! My obsession with this tone has taken a hiatus in the last few years in deference to the strat/tele through Fender amp sound but you’ve inspired me to plug the 335 into the 18 watt and let it rip!
great stuff, Keith . . . . thanks
I’ve shared your video to some key Facebook groups on this topic.
Fantastic job again, appreciate the research you do and quality of the production.
Meticulous research as always 👍 - such an awesome channel :)
Thanks for another awesome video Keith!
Glad you liked it Pal!
Vos Vintage original specs I was always told that is what it ment buddy I dont know maybe i am wrong,I asked them at the Gibson garage,when i bought my R9 it has a paint blemish in inside lower bout .Best LesPaul i ever owned.Great program Keith, be safe Tommy in Tn
