| nerakdon (Colorado) | Posted: Sep 27, 2010 - 22:52 Rod Stewart is not an everyday word for me, but I've heard it three times now, once out of my own mouth. Synchronicity's thick tonight. |
| daedalus (over your hill) | Posted: Aug 26, 2010 - 23:19 The guitar sound reminds me of a cut of Hoochie Coochie man from a Muddy Waters tribute album featuring the vocals of Paul Rodgers (Free) with Steve Miller playing jokey ( and some classic) guitar riffs behind him. Incidentally Jeff Beck appears on the same album. Miller was a highly talented guitarist (actually a prodigy of Les Paul), who it seems never really realized the limits of his playing, being content to relax after achieving commercial success. The Joker. Not being driven to play as many notes as possible in the given time, he plays some toe-curlingly tasty licks on this track. Muddy Water Blues: A Tribute to Muddy Waters |

| gumbo73039 (Devon, England) | Posted: Feb 17, 2010 - 07:40 I borrowed the "Jeff Beck At Ronny Scotts" dvd recently, he is some player, guest spots from Clapton, Imogen Heep, Joss Stone, superb little bassist too! All stars in the audience too, no wonder they call him The Gov'nor. I saw him in Beck, Bogart and Appice in the 70's, Appice did an awesome solo. At the allotted point he starts his solo, the other two supped their pints, then on came the dry ice, flooding the stage. This drifted away, leaving a drummer-free drum set, with the solo going on over the PA. We were all slightly bemused for a bit. Then the dry ice flooded back in and covered the stage. When it all disappeared there was Appice drumming on as if nothing had happened. Awesome, and seamless, we couldn't hear any seams between Appice,PA, and Appice. Real showmanship. A great night |

| jadewahoo (Beautiful Earth) | Posted: Jan 16, 2010 - 21:47 Ahhh! Thanks for the reminder! This was, and remains, an awesome piece of Jeff Beck's magic. |

| Shesdifferent (Just visiting this planet this is not my home) | Posted: Dec 16, 2009 - 11:53 So good to hear this...when Rod was real and not a crooner! |
| That_SOB (The Dark Side of the Tune) | Posted: Nov 15, 2009 - 02:30 Was there ever a time that Jeff Beck played the guitar like he didn't invent it ? If so it isn't in this millennia. One of the very best ! |
| paulmack (the hissing swamps) | Posted: Oct 14, 2009 - 15:18 I'm having a hard time figuring out why this only has an average rating of 6.9. I always thought it was a monster - from when I first heard it as a high school kid and still now. Whenever I put this CD on, this is still the song I'm looking forward to the most. From the comment below, I'd really like to hear the Beck, Bogart, and Appice version. |
| yclept (left of here, right of there) | Posted: Oct 14, 2009 - 15:07 Bill, I hope you're doing a Halloween playlist again this year...and this should be on it for sure. |

| Wizzuvvoz (Land of Nod. East of Eden on Route 66.) | Posted: Aug 12, 2009 - 13:57 I never thought i'd be able to stomach anything with Rod Stewart anywhere near it but this is pretty cool. |
| redstorm (East Coast!........ Lou!) | Posted: Oct 31, 2008 - 16:20 this was when Rod really rocked!! thanks Bill!! But the Beck,Bogart and Appice version was wicked!  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aBpSeyk1z4o |

How often I find myself educating my under-25 buddies here at law school on the rock-n-roll blessing that was "Every Picture Tells a Story." Given "Tonight's the Night" and all-things-Stewart subsequent to that atrocity, can they be faulted for not believing me? Amen.....just experienced the verbal,chronoligical destruction of what used to be a bad ass, sensual singer..... |
