Jeff Beck - Scatterbrain (Performing this week...Live At Ronnie Scott's)

[@acdc969]

RIP Jeff! One of the best guitarrist of an era.

[@mayacortina7219]

Easily my favorite JB piece.

[@Emoney3131]

R.I.P. Mr. Beck, that drummer is ridiculously good!

[@MercutioUK2006]

Agreed. Vinnie Colaiuta....he's played with a huge list of artists including a certain Mr. Frank Zappa, and Mr. Allan Holdsworth.

Not just good, but in the conversation for GOAT

[@stringlocker]

What makes him successful is he's not boring. Many guitar players are boring including myself.

[@keithsmith756]

Exactly, Jeff doesn’t just play simple stuff within the pentatonic box, but I’m assuming in various different scales and modes

[@IgnacioGiri]

Can't be a more appropriate name for this song than Scatterbrain.

[@febbster]

Beck the magnificent with monster Vinnie Colaiuta on drums............BEASTIAL !!!

[@bajaborracho9139]

Saw jeff beck at the concord Pavillion 1977 caught bart to the concert but this was before bart ran all night and bart was closed when we got the station. We went to the freeway to hitchhike and very first car stopped. We were going to the farthest part of the city. The sunset district at the beach. Dude was going to the sunset and he drive us all the way home. We were 15. We slept all the home. Dude woke me up at my house. I will never forget that night and it was all for jeff beck.🙏

[@fredzep01]

Back in the good old days, when the journey was as exhilarating as the shows, I have some insane memories of how we got to some shows, and some crazy ways we got back home. Great times...

[@josephfevelo8760]

Good Lord !!!!!! Let there be Beck and he was !!!!!

[@1960taylor]

Vinnie working his ass off on that one.....Jeff is on another planet

[@Zigaboomusiczig]

I heard that Vinnie is from Jupitar

[@stevenrajsk2015]

Love ya Jeff. The Wes Montgomery of Rock & Roll......that right thumb is MAGIC The whammy bar KING. Godspeed my friend

[@richardblock2458]

Beck is the best of the British guitarists, a true iconoclast.

[@ardvarq9027]

He's not just the best British guitarist, he's one of those rare players that shows us reprieve from eternal classic rock hell...he's giving us a glimpse of the future.

[@cathystruska1558]

The greatest guitar player that ever walked the planet….Period-

[@The5thGen]

Words cannot describe how good he was!!!

[@jonathanniday4474]

The lick at 1:58 reminds me of an old cartoon. The complexity in playing those notes to give it that sound is totally above what a guitar is supposed to sound like. Truly amazing work.

[@TawpSeaCrits]

R.I.P. To a Legend.

[@joman66]

Gutted to hear that he passed. RIP Jeff Beck!

[@BLOOindisguise]

Rip Jeff beck. One of the best irreplaceable guitarists ever to exist. Also the keyboard player is insane in this, i dont think he got the attention he deserved. That solo was absolutely 💯

[@ramongarcia482]

The favorite 🎸player of our favorite 🎸players have flown. He was already immortal. RIP Maestro, though I think you will keep rocking in heaven.

[@ikkenhisatsu7170]

Incredible band, for starters. And Jeff Beck may well be the the best electric guitarist of our time. He can do ANYTHING - and perfectly.

[@ricksteffan1783]

i heard he builds his own hotrods too

[@ikkenhisatsu7170]

@@ricksteffan1783 He does. I sometimes think he plays music just to finance his gearhead hobbies.

[@triledink]

This was the first song I heard by Jeff Beck. Amazing live show, extraordinary guitar playing. RIP legend.

[@KRyder5150]

This was my favorite song by Jeff. Blow by Blow was my favorite album. I was fortunate enough to see him play at the Northrop Auditorium at University of Minnesota during his Guitar Shop tour when he was playing with Stevie Ray. That was 6 months before he passed away. Mind blowing show. Bozzio was on drums. Just a beautifully wicked show. Honored I was there.

[@agm2515]

To say this, then you know JB's repertoire very well. I struggle to draw up a list because there are so many incredible performances. At more than sixty years old... what an unrepeatable man we have lost.👑

[@DavidMcFall-e5q]

You see how he let them go without stepping on their toes I couldn’t have done that I would’ve been all over the fret! He’s very generous , smile

[@Mark-jw7to]

He's gone but never forgotten!

[@Noitisnt-ns7mo]

He was gone here. It was his destination.

[@289hipo]

In my opinion he is the Goat of rock guitar

[@chopperdeath]

Jeff couldn't show you where a d flat note was on the neck, but he knows what to play and when to play it.

[@timjohnson3877]

Honestly, about as good as it gets. I feel privileged to have seen him live twice. His sense of dynamics was better than anyone I can think of to this day, just total mastery. RIP JB

[@billsmith2212]

I saw him live about two years ago at Jones Beach Theater , an outdoor show . It is incredible what he does live ! Talent - no autotune , no tapes , no overdubs . I originally saw him in about 1968 with Rod Stewart . That's 50 years ! Still a life long fan . And he's getting better !

[@melodymakermark]

I was a bit young for the early solo stuff, but by the mid 70’s fusion, I was all in. A fan ever since. I’ve said it before, but he’s occasionally had to drag me along to what’s next. I always come around though, even if first listens didn’t impress. Finally got to see him in 2019 with Captain Jack Sparrow, Vinnie, Rhonda and the cellist. Bucket list item checked that night.

[@michaelmele4888]

I saw him five years ago, mind blowing. Sadly we can't see him again. 😢

[@davevaebutuoy]

How come I can only hit the Like button once?!!!!!!

[@TBlanktim]

Jeff Beck not only plays the guitar different from anyone else, but he USES the guitar more than anyone else. Eddie Van Halen received accolades for his style and perhaps deservedly so. Jeff Beck is the Sci-Fi version of that. The crossroads concert shows how much he stands out. With all those incredible players, and I love most of them, he comes out and rips like no one before. There are the maestros, and then there is Mr. J. Beck.

[@DADSGETNDOWN]

Bah...

[@drewbacsi]

Hands down!

[@larrybethune3909]

Sci-Fi baby. Yeah!

[@karlkutac1800]

It's funny - I was just thinking of Eddie Van Halen when listening to this. For my money, Jeff has more emotion, less flash. But man! are they both smooth, or what!

[@wobohekl]

leave the tapping to the late Eddie van Halen

Since January I’ve been asking myself “What’s worth listening to now?” I’m sure there are musicians out there I have yet to discover, but compared to this genius? Only time will tell. Rip, Jeff ❤

One of the greatest performances of his career. Hats off to ya, Mr. Beck. We’ll miss ya

I love how inventive his playing was. Seemed like a nice guy too. Such a loss x

[@patrickravier3038]

I like Jeff Beck, because he's still searching, with great and communicative energy. Lucky bassist !

Jeff Beck was 63 years old when he did these series of concerts (November of 2007). He was born on June 24th in 1944.

[@andrewburgess6417]

63 and still precocious as ever. He was a daredevil with taste. RIP

[@JeffyJames66]

Jeff Beck got more sound and feeling out of a single note than any other player who ever lived.

Wow, Jeff is truly a guitar master. Also, dat keyboard solo

A song like this...really let's the imagination run wild and tell it's own story.

[@universozero872]

JEFF BECK UM DOS MELHORES GUITARRISTAS DE TODA A HISTÓRIA!

[@McRaeJim]

Saw him in Austin about 10 years ago. Vinnie was the drummer then and Rhonda Smith on bass. The opening song I thought Vinnie was giving me CPR with his bass drum. Went right through my chest

[@agm2515]

The versatility and the Incredible technique at the service of music, including others,clearly demonstrate the greatness of this man, especially if they arise from the desire to touch the soul of the listener👑.

Amazing guy to watch play. He makes sounds that are haunting then he goes super fast. A master

he don't play all the note like the studio version. For me the pianist and drummer do the job ^^

To me, that tempo is more impressive than actually enjoyable. But those chops are undeniable, from Jeff and the whole band.

[@davidjones9661]

Yeah, it's frenetic right from the start, whereas the studio version builds the tension more gradually, to where your mind is spinning by end of it. Like this live version, LOVE the studio version. My favorite JB tune, hands down.

Love the song. Even at this killer tempo, Jason’s playing really amazes.

He is not, the video was recorded in 2007. He was around 63 back then. Still impressive though, regardless of age.

[@garymcaleer6112]

Great sound! Great comp! Great chops! This takes me back to the 60's @ age 8 when I first heard "Heart Full of Soul" from the album, "Rave Up With The Yardbirds." And I stayed loyal to Jeff's artistry through the years always hearing new and creative musical journeys.

Insane. I have the recorded version from "Blow by Blow" shuffle up on the device with some regularity. Figured it to be a studio masterpiece. Should've known that live would serve it great justice!
