I don't think most realize how difficult this 'bar' work is on the guitar. Granted not something I'm that crazy about, but it is pretty amazing technically.

I like this piece but I can understand how it might grate on some people's ears.

Under-rated and un-noticed by so many. Bumped from a 9——>10.

I absolutely can't abide this - I think I'm just biased as I love the Nitin Sawhney version so much, it holds such tranquil memories for me of travels, and this is all a bit too squiggly and manic for my taste.  Beck has talent - but it's like teaching your gran to breakdance, she might end up shit hot at it but it's going to look a horrid mess in the end so best not bother eh.

And if you haven't yet seen the current Jeff Beck At Ronnie Scott's DVD, I highly recommend it! A great production, this.

hey uwnav!  If this other version you refer to is a good one, please upload it.

 

I believe the electric guitar does Jeff Beck's amazing talent justice.

 
I went to upload it, but it's already in the library!

A DVD/Blu-Ray concert video was released recently.  Jeff and band playing at Ronnie Scott's in London.  Joss Stone guests on People Get Ready, Imogen Heap on a couple tunes, and Clapton on two blues numbers.  Beck is an amazing player with amazing technique.

 
Saw it on tv a couple weeks ago. Really good. I had never seen Jeff Back play and didn't realize he plucks the strings with his thumb - makes what he does even more amazing.

jpfueler:   hilarious!

Cats are generally not fond of noise.  It, for practical purposes, tends to deafen them.
