I MET HIM TODAY, IT WAS FANTASTIC, he played a song with my pick

[@petersteemers2047]

Wow, this is great, hadn't heard of Jeff Pevar until just now!!

[@mcoram3486]

Only Jeff and Jeff Beck can pull tone out of a Fender like that. Could it be no pick allowed?

[@badajoz711]

So nice to see him sing as well 👍 and what a genius guitar player, wow! The intro alone blew me away! Amazing!

[@Datcc555]

I lived across the street from Jeff for 5 years...

[@kjatexas3679]

I never get tired of watching this. One of my favorite songs, whether by Pevar, SRV, or Hendrix. Jeff has the fastest fingers in the East !

[@freebird1969]

The wife and I were able to attend...masterful...wonderful evening of stories . Thanks for sharing . :)

[@promoted738]

A beautiful lesson every time I watch Jeff play.

[@peevmania]

Thank you sir!

[@angrybuzzy]

Jeff Pevar is the man.

[@StravinskyLives]

Jeff is such a passionate player. Love when he gigs the home state of CT. He is a nice man too.

[@peevmania]

Thank you! Wish I could get back east but Covid..... instead we are streaming shows out of our home! Check out some of our recent Stone House shows!

[@rocketpost1]

Absolutely brilliant and definitely the best version of Jimi's song that I've ever heard. I think I achieved a state of ecstasy just listening to it. I don't think any guitarist around today could play this better not even Eric Gales. I thought Jeff's voice was pretty good as well. I knew Jeff was a top flight guitarist but he ascended into the clouds on this one.

[@peevmania]

Wow...thank you...

[@beevale]

Proud to say I was there to see it in person.

[@asixstringnut1972]

Was this in Ashland at the Reruuca house

Great Luck !

so very beautiful Jefferson....

[@omb3210]

VERY GOOD !!!!!!!!!

[@tednorcross7489]

I used to play downtown all the time in the later 70's. We used to backup the Shaboo Allstars a few times. The only time I talked to him. I used to be at the jam at the 880 on Sunday. I saw him a few times there. A real good blues player. There would be me, Roger Wilks on tenor, real good player. And we all hit the changes. It was fun. And a lot of ego. Dapalmas , Matt the Lurch. He was funny.

[@jubenville00]

@@peevmania My father got me in a few times in my early teens just so I could witness the talent and experience those magical moments. You and all the guys inspired to me to practice and jam as much as I could, those were some of the best times of my life for sure!

[@fatbackbass8477]

magnificent hands on the guitar...

[@peevmania]

wow thank you sir

[@paulcabral650]

Amazing

[@gkbhai8962]

Looking at older videos of him, there's a sense that he's shed a lot of old layers. I bet he's on a conscious spiritual path.

[@peevmania]

Getting married to a beautiful woman will do that. Thank you!

[@MrJbstrings1234]

This is amazing! I was turned on to you by Jason Price-

Hi Jeff 👋

[@MrEiluap]

Hey there Jeff, discovered your playing during CPR period, many folks I'd turn to and say, "Hey, who do you think this is?" Anyway, none knew but would soon tell me they soon got the CD and love it. I have always loved your tone, was at the gym when "At the Edge" comes on my player, and those spicy, warm licks take me in man. I'm an avg guitar player, recently got back into a band and they like my playing, leads as well. I'm happy to be in a band. My Quest continues to be?: To discover a tone that I'm happy with. I'm not that experienced with Pedals or Amps. I'm still in experimental stage and ready to sell all the one's I have and keep searching. HELP!! Ha! So far I've tried and have: JCM 2000 DSL 401 Combo: Don't like the sound, thin, no warmth, etc Bogner 40/20 Alchemist, Combo, weighs a lot, shocked that it sounded different, crappy, in a couple of studio's I played in, weird. Vox AD30VT, Combo, basically an at home practice amp, weird that it get better sound than the others. Bottom Line: Can you suggest an Amp, 30-40 watt range, that you'd enjoy doing small gigs with, and I want to set up a Pedal Board finally! Really wish I could see your Pedal Board Set up in this picture? I Love the small Wah Wah that you kicked in for some tasty leads. Also, would love to know when and where you may perform in the North San Fran Bay Area,? I'm in Cotati, CA. NOTE: AMP Suggestion, and your Pedal Board Set up, Pix, Info Please! Smiles, Paul Lashley, Email: [e-mail] Yup, I'm a rafting enthusiast with all the River Gear, 14 ft Avon, love to Row Rivers. I hear you've lived in S. Oregon, a Fav river of our is rowing the wirld n scenic section of the Rogue, near where you live or lived. (Pls provide a current rundown of your Petalboard Rig if you will! I know you've Promoted real tone Fat Larry pedal in the past. I also heard u make that Wah pedal of yours scream out with the tone you had while demo ing the Fat Larry, just couldn't quite make out your effects pedals cuz they were upside down on the screen. I'll keep looking and listening, Paul

[@peevmania]

Hey Paul. Thanks for the note! Check out some of our shows we are streaming from our home!

[@joeklapak4259]

This guys was found by me demoing a es339. Fucking great soulful player.

[@peevmania]

Thank you sir!

[@AidanMmusic96]

Nothing but *music*. Jeff, your playing throughout CPR and your trio makes me feel things only matched by my hero Allan Holdsworth. Did you ever get to see him perform?

[@MaureenPirrello]

Thought I'd check out what Cindy & Debbie & always find drawn to hear from their old high school buddie -Not too bad to my senior ears even though I usually prefer my oldies - The Big Bands!! their Mom

[@tednorcross7489]

Also Tom Chapin would be there too at the 880. He was really good.

[@peevmania]

Tom was a master! Those were great times!

This was a recording studio in Hartford my friend Doug Kupper owned at the time

Proves you do not need a pick!

@@charlesrichter3854 exactly! The more versatile the player the better!

[@nestormaestro963]

Extraordinario! Pero le hace falta una banda detrás para redondear esta obra de arte. Esta canción necesita un bajo y una batería

[@Gilyslas]

recording sounds distorted nice playing though

Soul- and tasteful playing. That run starting at 1:50 - 1:55 really got to me. Distinguishes an extraordinary player from the masses. The entire performance is played in the spirit of Hendrix. What a great feel. Fans of this type of playing might also enjoy Joe Caro with the Met Band playing Strawberry Fields. Thank you Jeff. kzbin.info/www/bejne/aICoq4FmZqx6aas

grew up with this guy he and his buddy stole the guy who played in my first band lol

[@felixlgq]

Stole what?

[@peevmania]

@@felixlgq I guess somebody stole a guy...whatever that means...I wonder....did they ever return the guy?

Dude! Feel free to leave your thoughtful, and supportive comments like this elsewhere.

[@timtim36457]

Dude I happen to think the vocals are as fucking soulful and beautiful as the the fucking genius rendition on guitar..fuck off duschbag

[@asixstringnut1972]

Raja Watts. Let’s see you do as well! Lmao

[@rajawatts1141]

@@peevmania Nobody wants to hear a perceived ineffectual performance, I know I hate it also , but a bitter pill of honest impression, would it be better if I lied or said something to stroke your ego? Sorry, I listened, gave it my best impression. We all don't like the same things, tones , lyrics, songs, and so forth, sorry, I hurt you! I've actually listened and liked one of your recordings and thought it creative, impressive, but I know it is hard to please everyone, with everything we present, that is the truth ...I have to accept the opinions of others if I don't like something/anything I put effort into. I still try to do the best I can, as I'm sure you do also each time you work/play. apologies that so many are wounded by an honest opinion of something presented, I don't often write any comments, but I see this concern was equal to not being able to state one's honest opinion.

[@peevmania]

@@rajawatts1141 Well stated. I learned a long time ago that ya just can't please everyone..... and I am totally fine with that, as I am very grateful there are many people who enjoy my offerings.....yet, for discussions sake.... are you really accomplishing something of true value putting anyone's efforts down? This always eludes me when I see this "behavior"...Does it make you feel "empowered" or justified to be unconcerned with how your comments might make someone who shares their art, feel? I'm curious what you do with your life choices, and if you might have the same courage to put your own life's work on the chopping block. I will assume that you don't...but if you did, would you appreciate someone telling you that you suck in a public forum? I'm guessing not. Artistry/music comes from a very vulnerable place...To have the courage to get up in front of people with only what you have to give, and offer out self expression/love/truth in this crazy world.... it's sort of a combination of sharing your joy while "ripping your guts out and popping it on a stick" for all to see. While the intention of your honest assessment could be taken as somewhat of a "respectable offering" in itself, when doing so, knowing that your words can disappoint, embarrass and/or even hurt others, then I wonder what is your true intention with that so called "offering"? Normally I don't look at "reviews" for reasons such as this or respond..but this time I am...and the only reason I am taking the time is to appeal to anyone and everyone like you, who seems to get some strange type of enjoyment out of saying things that are uncomplimentary to people who might be offering out their own unique moment of self expression is, maybe the next time you feel it important to put people down .. are you really accomplishing something of value? Does it make you "happy" to negate others attempts? Obviously I have nothing to offer you... if this conversation means anything.... please consider to simply be kind to your fellow human being and if you don't enjoy something ...you also have the option to move on without being abusive.... just a thought.... maybe too "utopian-istic" for you but nonetheless I felt it worth my time to say. Wishing you health safety and wishing more joy for us all...please!
