Jeff once said "John McLaughlin is the greatest guitar player in the World" RIP Mr. Beck

[@Digga58]

Yes he did!

[@dunebillyofswanbeach4294]

And Jeff Beck had a cogent point. John is an incredible musician. The Mahavishnu Orchestra was my favorite band to see live.

[@grandpacardenaz8222]

@@dunebillyofswanbeach4294 Yes...they were great. My buddies couldn't handle what they were playing. lol

This song captured the essence of a Jeff Beck tribute to perfection,as Jeff always raved about John McLaughlin and what a absolute power force he is!

[@gregoryfleming4324]

Best of this tribute, by a man of 80 who played with Miles Davis……deep respect John

[@DaniloMarrone]

Who’s the master of all guitar styles? You know, you know!

Who ?

[@victorbrown3570]

I have great respect for John M. Anyone who can jam with jazz, flamenco, Indian musicians, etc and fit right in is truly gifted.

[@esp-music]

SO TRUE!

[@motoputz3201]

81 years old ...incredible

[@sonicolone]

JM’s tone is just so good here. He rarely plays with this much gain and I wish he would more often. Such a great tribute.

[@andigisler]

I think he plays through a real amp here and not the digital emulations he used on stage for years. The tone is so much better and does justice to his incredible musicianship.

[@danar.6037]

Rhonda, Anika and John pulled this off amazingly well! Great effort

[@paullisakguitar]

Such a legend! Jeff would have loved this above everything else

[@joestefanoni5263]

John wrote this song, Jeff covered it. Such a fitting tribute

[@ronmicallef523]

Thank ( insert preferred deity ) that John is still here, as so many have gone. Their music will always be here ( unless all the hardware melts!) but always in our hearts and minds.😎💞🎸

[@GetOutsideYourself]

And that bass solo. Damn. Let's just say the 3-way level of musicianship here is out of this world.

[@georgghiletiuc1464]

Ich bin sehr traurig, daß ich nichts von diesem Konzert wusste. Ich bin Jeff Beck- Fan seit meinem 16. Lebensjahr, jetzt bin ich 74 Jahre alt. John McLauglin spielt eine exzellente Gitarre für Jeff B. Er ruhe in Frieden ❣️

[@karloarsch1579]

Nothing wrong with all the Erics, Johnnys, Ronnys, Rods, Billys, all the Ladys and Choirs. But this trio is it!

[@commonsense4257]

i am 70 and remember decades ago i was the only one , the only one at the Maritime College listening to the Mahavishnu Orchestra , it was for me heaven and slowly at the Academy and onboard the vessels one by one i got more people into John McLaughlin an absolute master !!

[@bjburb8334]

That tour was seminal.

[@gregpeterson8250]

Seeing Rhonda and Anika really hurts, I saw them with Jeff in DC a few months before we lost him. The longer he’s gone the more it hurts. Thank you ladies for a great concert with Jeff!

[@TheBlueskyson]

0:17 love the old school roadie plugging in John's axe. Reckon he's seen it all lol. You know ur in experienced hands. Shout out to the road crew and production crew who keep the show going. P.S. Gr8 bass solo! ty

[@jacosaw]

That was amazing, Rhonda and Anika were fantastic

[@LuvHrtZ]

The bass player and drummer are absolutely killin' it!

[@kabirjones8563]

It was a great night, my wife got tickets for my 70th birthday, it was just amazing to be entertained by so many all time greats, loved every minute.

[@jerrycarroll9068]

finally someone besides trucks ripping it. awesome

[@avnbas]

I´ve saw John lots of times also with Shakti. Great times Great times. Beck said John is the best.I´m blown out.

[@roberthoward9093]

John is the elder statesman and No.1 player of all time... he helped Jeff and Jimmy (and maybe Eric, too) with their early playing and without him this holy trinity would never have happened.

[@danielschaeffer1294]

To say nothing of the huge number of jazz guitarists for whom he opened doors. Coryell, Metheny, Abercrombie, Stern, Holdsworth ….

[@leandrosep6032]

John even gifted JB the white strat which is on wired's album cover

[@javiceres]

@@leandrosep6032is that proven?

[@leandrosep6032]

@@javiceres John even mentions it on his website. He owns a white strat and said it reminds him of the one he gave to Jeff Beck in the mid 70s. Jeff played a les paul (oxblood) prior to that. I've read it from other sources too

[@javiceres]

@@leandrosep6032 He also played a Telecaster

[@janhensley3617]

Sublime! Thanks for sharing! RIP Jeff Beck.

Great Mahavishnu Orchestra tune from Inner Mounting Flame released in 1971.

[@robertburns7670]

masterpiece !! executed by accomplished musicians, written by a genius !! Rhonda is brilliant as is the drummer Anika !!

[@dennisstone5018]

Well said

[@mikelair9144]

Wow! Greatest rhythm pair I've heard in a long time. Anika Nilles drumming killing it and Rhonda Smith taking bass journeys that blow my mind . JM is a master of fusion. Great choice!!!!!

[@bugeanuflorin1531]

Fabulous moments. Thanks for posting them. Rip master Jeff Beck.

Hard to argue with that. Class act.

This is damn good. Who is the drummer?

[@andrews127]

@xwirth thanks 😊

[@williammanning720]

killer crushing at 81 years old, my favorite guitarist! Rhonda Smith is awesome and thank you Jeff Beck - greatest rock guitarist for me- I mean guitarist!

[@rockerfromhk]

Check out the tune "Django", which Jeff Beck played with John Mclaughlin's The Promise album.

[@pondlife1952]

I can’t believe this bloke, and the bass and drums compliment his guitar tremendously.

[@miles-178]

wooow to John and Anika Nilles on drums !!!!!!!! Cheers from Europe to all the Europeans musicians with world class feeling!

I didn't know Anika Nilles on drums! Now I know! She's pretty good, isn't she? ;-)

What a beautiful man. Jeff would’ve been moved by this.

love the tones of drums, bass and guitar - and all three played by people on top of their games!

[@bryanstaddon5998]

Thank God him and Derek were there to save the evening!

[@paulreese3071]

It’s always a good sign when you see someone actually “plug in” in todays day and age! Tone is usually very important to that player! Thank you Mr. McLaughlin 🙏

J Mac is great 🤟 makes the guitar sing 🎸

[@malloy1955]

I should of spoke of when John came on stage, It was glorious.Jeff just destroyed the hall, everyone was mesmerized. John comes out and ask"s everyone for moment of silence To Pray. Unbelievably a third of the audience leaves.Better seats avail .What a mistake. The M.O. crushed it.52 years ago and he still kills it. Im going to take a moment to pray. T.Y. John and Jeff, PEACE

[@jemp1965]

Absolutely amazing and mind blowing! Mr. McLaughlin even with 81 "the one, the killer" (Miles Davis)

[@dmljones2550]

Killer playing. Like the original master Jeff Back would have demanded, performed with tons of space allowing each musician to show their true abilities. Miles would have been knocked out.

[@dmljones2550]

Of course “You Know You Know “ was composed by John McLaughlin. Jeff Beck also played it and loved. A terrific tribute by John.

I wondered how this particular song would go - got chills from the start... I think I need to check and see if that bass player has any solo stuff out there, been watching her jam with Mr. Beck for awhile, she's impressive.

Guess some folks here didn't know that Beck played this Mahavishnu staple in concert his last few years with us. He was a devotee of McLaughlin and they had a close friendship.

[@knightfall9394]

He was playing it way before his last few yrs with us

[@suzupaparock]

John is the most respected guitarist by Jeff Beck. Not one of the most.for Jeff, the most of the most. During the interview after releasing Blow by brow, when Jeff was asked about John, Jeff stopped the question and said “I can’t play as John!” It showed perfect respect for John.

[@ADPNC13]

Amazing!

[@DelightLovesMovies]

Wow thats sensational.

[@richardperusse4299]

they had mutual admiration, jJohn already told he loved Jeff's playing ....

[@kevintalbot1818]

John McLaughlin and Derek Trucks were a class apart during this tribute concert in my opinion , the remainder , with best intention I have to say , can only dream about being in the same ball park as Jeff Beck , just saying .
