What a beautiful sensitive version of this song, touches all the sadness and pain it was about. It's amazing that Beck is still playing for huge audiences. Thinking about how few from that time are still active or even alive. I notice a lot of ignorant comments. The man is 75 and still going strong, such a rare talent. Try to think if you can even walk on to that stage when you're 75, much less make such a masterly performance. And such a humble man and such a lovely relationship he has with his band members. And remember there was a time when Pink Floyd was too shy to ask him become their next and he was invited to the Rolling Stones too. What an example for all the young musicians.

I have followed Beck since the late 60s and he is to the guitar what Keith Emerson is to the keyboard...a virtuoso! I had always hoped that Jeff and Jimmy would get together after 1980 from time to time, maybe every 4-5 years and just do something completely different from Zepp or Yardbirds and just experiment with each other, but it never happened. Grand performance by Jeff.

Evan Davidson Beck’s control of the whammy bar is incredible. I don’t know what the big deal of Jimmy Page being there is? It’s near to Page’s home and they have been friends for 50 years. This was for a video that was a big deal for Beck and it’s not surprising his friends who live in the London area would come.
