Release 2008 - NEW !!! sealed 180 Gram HQ vinyl ltd. Edit NEU!!!!
His first band TRIDENTS he left to join the YARDBIRDS, to replace ERIC CLAPTON in 1965.
He left the band inbetween the US tour in 1967.
In the same year he put together The JEFF BECK GROUP with great shouter ROD STEWART,
his 1st single charted in the UK top 20 HI HO SILVER LINING. With the 1st LP(released in
in 1968), he produced one of the best and earliest bluesy Hardrock albums... a must have.
The follow up was near as good.
For me he is on a level like JIMI HENDRIX...till today he experiments with sounds.
