Live At Ronnie Scott's - Jeff Beck

Jazzing it up at Ronnie Scott's

Advantages: Great music, easy to get to, not too expensive
Disadvantages: Getting home again, seating not very comfortable

people there dressed smartly (some in evening dress), there were men in suits and people in jeans and t-shirts. I certainly felt completely comfortable wearing jeans and a smart/casual top, while Neil just wore jeans and a shirt. Transport: Getting to Ronnie Scott's club is fairly simple, as it's right in the middle of the West End and served by tubes, buses or taxis. However, since the club doesn't close until around 3am each night, getting home again can be much more complicated. Not a problem perhaps if you either live or are staying in central London, but if you live in South London like I do, it gets more complicated. Despite that, we managed, as there are a few 24-hour bus services that took us to Victoria, and there's one 24-hour train service, which goes through East Croydon, a short-ish cab ride away from our house ...

Review of Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club

A live CD of Jeff Buckley

Advantages: Jeff Buckley, Live, Godly, Music
Disadvantages: Short

In this live album Jeff does some of his Grace songs, some covers and some songs that to my knoledge never got released as a studio recording. Mystery white boy, the tours of 95-96 is a CD covering Jeffs unsatiable appetite for his own live music. He had a knack of never doing a song the same more than once, This is shown in effect by listening to his other live albums (such as "Live at sine"). Track Listings 1. Dream Brother 2. I Woke Up In A Strange Place 3. Mojo Pin 4. Lilac Wine 5. What Will You Say 6. Last Goodbye 7. Eternal LIfe 8. Grace 9. Moodswing Whiskey 10. The Man That Got Away 11. Kanga Roo 12. Hallelujah/I Know It's Over (medley) Dream Brother, is a song he recorded for grace, and he belts out an extended version with a 2 min 30 second intro to such a buckley loved classic. 9/10 I ...

Review of Mystery White Boy - Jeff Buckley

He's Got an -Ology

Advantages: A comprehensive history of one of the greatest guitarists of all time
Disadvantages: Hi Ho Silver Lining

Jeff Beck is one of the most important guitarists of the sixties, and still making excellent music today. He was in the Yardbirds along with Clapton and Page and his work was only eclipsed by the brilliance of Hendrix. This is a brilliantly compiled three CD set which contains a sixty four page booklet with track information and personel listings, as well as "the Jeff Beck story" by Gene Santoro, and a complete (but eye strainingly small) band family tree. The compilation is arranged chronologically. The first disc kicks of with his work with Tridents, followed by fifteen Yardbirds songs including "Shapes of Things", "Over Under Sideways Down" and "Happenings Ten Years Time Time Ago" as well as various blues standards and variousslices of pscychedelia. These are followed by fpour tracks live at the BBC which are standard R ...
