Cause We’ve Ended as Lovers - Steve Morse & the AMS Jam Band Cover

[@tecknick]

If you're going to honour Jeff Beck, this is how you do it, with feeling, with thought, with your own heritage bleeding through. Thank you Steve, you too are a 'Master'.

[@Claiboren]

Well Said!

[@dkjazzz]

Absolutely! Steve is incredible

[@seanquinlan6887]

Defo not a slavish copy thats for sure,but Honoring Jeffs Melodic ideas. Be nice to hear it on Beck's old Les Paul

Jeff is dead but Steve is alive, full of power and passion. His breathtaking version of this classic tune is outstanding. ❤

What a dumb comment

[@rafaelcarmany463]

I have routed for this great Person for 46 years. He is an incredible Human Being. I know that he suffers pain and great discomfort due to arthritis and broken arm - but he never stops pushing. You”Go”, Steve!

[@IronMan-tx6mt]

Steve has always played with heart & emotion. Best of health going forward, Steve. Keep rock'n!!🎸🎸🎸

[@SifetFelic]

I miss Steve Morse in Deep Purple. I have a guitar pick from Steve Morse. For me, Mr. Morse is one of the greatest guitarists ever. 🎸 Gretings from Bosnia 🇧🇦😊

[@craiglizt8074]

A beautiful tribute by Steve. Respectfully played. RIP, Jeff.

[@Dan-rn6xm]

Steve's face in slo mo at the end says it all; a lover was in his heart and head as he played. This was the first solo I learned as a teen learning to play to Beck records in the 70's. Also, my wife passed away of cancer as well this past August; I believe I found this for a reason. Nothing replaces the love for a spouse. God bless you, Steve.

[@yearoftherabbitoftheyear]

The smile at the end speaks volumes about the respect and skill required to play Jeff Becks songs and do the justice well done Steve well done!!!

[@thepedalguy2932]

One of the better versions of this I have ever heard :) great tribute to Jeff Beck

[@rockerfromhk]

OMG! This is the first time I hear someone plays this song as good as Jeff Beck. I remember in 70's, Jeff Beck & Steve Morse were on the "overall best guitarist of the year" from Guitar Player votes all the time.

[@dogman5680]

One of my all-time favourites by JB! I must’ve heard 100 guitar players cover this song but it sounds to me like Steve Morse understands the harmony better than any of them… every single note packed with so much personality, just ridiculously good.

[@isaganicasis2148]

Great version

[@Girygen]

Agreed

[@wellprata]

A genius playing another genius's music. Long live Steve Morse!

[@jeffcokenour3459]

Wow. Only Steve Morse could play Jeff Beck like this. Wonderful!

[@tom999]

I knew Steve is a badass but this left me speechless

[@simondavies6270]

Its truly wonderful to watch the legendary Mr Steve Morse play. A guitarist whom I have the utmost respect covering this classic tune given poignance and resonance by the late lamented MrJeff Beck who of course made this instrumental famous. Penned by the equally legendary Mr Stevie Wonder for his lover and the woman who was to became his wife the late singer Syreeta Wright who possessed such a weepingly beautiful voice.

[@SLAYERSWINE1]

@@simondavies6270 Her version is amazing, too.

[@muimasmacho]

Best tribute ever. Captured the emotion and finnesse perfectly. Thanks Steve. Since the late 70’s i have always hoped to see you and Beck collaborate. How remarkable that would have been. I guess i’ll have to catch that event on the other side of eternity. No rush.😶

[@masterturek]

Technique, phrase, and dynamic. 👏🏾👏🏾

[@joeriffanucci]

❤ everything about this. thank you AMS, Steve and band. We all love Jeff. Love to you Steve

It's rare that a "Steve" isn't a genius... Steve Morse is one of the guitar gods.

[@evergreensound5497]

Все же Джеф "выжимал" из страта слёзы, гитара плакала, особенно на концертах.R.I.P. JEFF BECK!!! Но Стиву глубокий поклон, он трудяга, несмотря на артрит кистевых суставов, не сдаётся. 🤘

[@dyerstrayts1734]

If each note plucked represents one step, I'd bet Steve and his guitar have circumnavigated the earth 100 times. Still plays with passion.

[@ArtbyPaulPetro]

Steve Morse's talent is not something I can understand. he's been my fave guitarist for 40 years.

[@tabl10s]

Same here. I still have his two companion cassettes from 1983! Finally got to see him in Las Vegas in '88. I drove myself crazy trying to pick every note without hammer-on's/pull-off's as does he. I gave it up.

[@guital425]

You haven;t lost a step! One of the best of all time!!

My God, what Steve Morse does with the guitar is impressive, it transported me so much that I felt like I was there feeling every note. My hands are sweaty and I have goosebumps.

[@gregorywall7586]

Steve Morse is one of the all-time greats. His work with Deep Purple is outstanding, and his complex jazzy playing with the Dixie Dregs is also another level of skill. His vibrato, speed, articulation, harmonics, and overall mastery of his instrument is second to none.

[@JBGuitarInstruction]

Great performance of a great tune. Steve Morse still sounding great as always. Jeff Beck would have approved!🎸

[@nemoxero]

Thanks a bunch Steve! … RIP Jeff❤️🔥🌈❤️

What a joy to watch Steve. Every single note tells a story and he sounds so beautifully lush but still edgy, it’s a privilege to listen to him. Thanks 🙏🏻

[@biswas01]

Best version I've heard to date! And he did all that vibrato w/o a tremolo bar! Legend!

[@jamesyoung3006]

Jeff used a Tele with humbuckers with no whammy on the original recording on Blow by Blow.

[@biswas01]

Oh right on! All the live performances of his I've ever seen had him using his Strat. Even more amazing to know he pulled all those dynamics off on *just* a Tele for the recording!

[@barrieflix]

@@biswas01 I think the original Blow by Blow was the infamous "TeleGibb". But you can find on KZbin a Crossroads festival clip of Jeff doing CWEAL on a Telecaster.

[@dkjazzz]

His volume swells are incredible!

[@axandio]

I simultaneously had Jeff Beck's Blow by Blow, Wired and There and Back along with Steve Morse Band in heavy rotation as a 15 yr old in 1983.

[@seabud6408]

Great tribute. Few guitarists could play “sometimes I feel like screaming” by Deep Purple and do justice to Steve’s great performances .. in the studio and live .. always different/inspiring.

[@Mordred478]

[@marksowers5041]

[@rogerbiggerstaff3293]

Steve isn't ill.

[@smarkalet9078]

​​@@rogerbiggerstaff3293I'm assuming he meant despite dealing with his wife's illness. Her illness is why he had to quit Deep Purple.

[@parmeshgurung]

@@rogerbiggerstaff3293 he is suffering from severe tendinitis. Look at year ago video with Rick beato and other interviews. He can barely there. His hands seems has improved so much compared to that. The stuff at his guitar neck is to help him to make him easier to play for his condition.

[@freakyrawen]

He’s got arthritis though.

[@prtzah]

Unfortunately he is suffering of arthiritis. He told it in this Rick Beato interview: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jnPWl2WAjMqll8Usi=08UMBM2fjHllA_v7

[@jimmagers4439]

Steve Morse is a master. If anyone can do this song justice it is him. But Jeff Beck played like no one has ever played. And after listening to Steve's version it struck me how Beck would make his musical statements in so few notes, with so much open quiet space between. Steve's version just has too many notes for me. Jeff's version is sparse and beautiful and each note he played was perfection that just struck at the core of your heart.
