This is a I magnify
disk where the egocentric and brilliant Jeff Beck unites to 2 types like Appice
(drums) and Bogert (bass), which conformed the powerful one and ideal bases so that
Beck is sent its achievements of "Guitar Hero".
Only work in study
of a trio that I last alone one year, before the battles of egos and the authoritarian
character of Beck threw for the overboard the project, however in Japan they adored
them... This disk of this power trio is energetic and influential and it shows us much of
the best typical hard rock in those ' 70s. inside its surprising character, this
production contains some of the moments but crazy of the production of Beck. The
music, here, undertakes a brave "flight" demencial where Beck, Bogert &
Appice detonates all its pyrotechnic arsenal. The "Zeppelian" influences is
certain, but to this disk of Beck, Bogert & Appice also stole quite also him in
later years. Who...?, Well I leave them a full example I specify: Please, look the version
of "Superstition" included in this disk and followed act puts the
song "Always On The Run" of the "Thief" Lenny Kravitz...
result: Lenny, thief...!, you also stole to Beck, Bogert & Apicce...
incredible!, identical opening, identical melodies and guitar arrangements... Kravitz is
all one recycler, without doubts... now then, it is highly to eulogize the form in that Beck,
Bogert & Appice appropriates of Stevie Wonder song, making a version hard
and completely personal soul and that almost anything had to do with the original one.
Well, returning to this disk that we were pointing out can say, synthetically that the
result is very good and in the album Beck gives us, occasional and interesting guitars and
potent riffs, as saying: "Eye, I can also play strong... and very well". In the
less hard parts and something rhythmic, Beck demonstrates (once but) that its
versatility is only and inexhaustible. Without doubts a hard disk, potent, without
arriving to the visceral thing, but with all the elements that they like to any fan of
Beck, which will find all that they want here and they want to listen of this phenomenal
artist.
