Notes:

Ok, kiddies, this one takes you right to the top! Once again our friends in Japan come thru with a top notch capture. This show was broadcast live on Japanese TV on June 2nd 1999. The pro quality audio was ripped from a fan-produced DVD of this show, NOT an official DVD.

Shame on whoever in Jeff's camp was responsible for holding this back from being officially released as a live CD. This by far wipes out the official "boot" recorded at B.B.King's available at jeffbeck.com, and even the official live with Jan Hammer in 1978. Sound quality is absolutely top notch! It couldn't be stressed enough that this is a MUST for any fan of Jeff's or any guitar drooler. On this night Jeff is at the top of his game; his strat tone as full as you'll ever hear it (except of course live in an an acoustically superb environment). This is the maestro in full flight. Brush With The Blues is a marvel - crank this one up especially to experience Jeff's touch, tone, control and dynamics. Star Cycle's solo is as fiesty as you'll ever hear it. A Day In The Life displays the emotion that can be wrought out of a block of wood with six strings. Big Block is spit out with Hendrixian hoodoo voodoo. If you pass this up you'll only have yourself to blame!

Unfortunately the TV broadcast was 90 minutes long, so this is not the complete concert. One song left out was Where Were You :( Maybe one day the rest will surface.

Cover art is included. Enjoy...
