Post by kevin ryan »

I haven't posted anything in awhile so here you go. I am a huge Jeff Beck fanatic. When Blow by Blow came out, I was changed! Here's a little jeff Beck.. I know it's not country so no yelling.

Excellent choice of material & tone, Kevin! Cool major at the end too.

Kevin, I'm a Jeff Beck fan myself. That song was made for pedal steel and you certainly nailed it. I wonder if Jeff had any experience with the steel guitar. He had the finesse in his hands to extract every ounce of tones from a Strat.

This is the second time I've heard Kevin do this piece - I loved it then and now I feel like trying it myself!

Fine playing, Kevin, and a great choice.

Very nice indeed! I did a version of this song on my Cd back in 1995 or so. Such a great piece for the pedal steel. Beck rules!

I wasn’t going to say it, Dave, so I’m glad you did. When I played your CD version of that tune for my wife she said, “if you played like that I’d go to bed with you.”
