Last time I saw him perform was when he and Clapton did that mini tour -6 dates,I think. I drove up tp Montreal to catch the last show. It was memorable and the only time in almost 3 decades of seeing him live that he played some straight up blues. Great show.
Avatar 🥃 9:50pm
Harry Parmenter:

↳ Prowler @9:48
Wow. And straight up blues, that version of Brush on Who Else is also staggering. Good point he didn't do much of that. I thought he was the best of the 3 with the blues (JP/EC)

I only got the chance to see Jeff Beck on stage once — the ARMS concert at Madison Square garden sometime in the early ‘80s. I think I appreciate it it more now than I did then because of where my teenage head was at the time.
