	2:08pm Joe B: hey MOM!
	👻 2:08pm Frank In Queens: ↳ MOM WHIG @2:08 Hi there MOM
	2:08pm tim from washington: Yardbirds is British slang for those in the pokey?
	👻 2:09pm WLSClark: I didn't know it in 66, but my Crayn Shames hero, James Fairs, had to most certainly be a Beck fanatic.
	👻 2:09pm MOM WHIG: ↳ WLSClark @2:08 Hovering on 100% today so far - how about you?
	2:09pm Chili MacPagoda: ↳ MOM WHIG @2:07 The nine year old is going off with crazy dancing but my eleven year old niece needs answers to questions first - like what’s a YARDBIRD??
	👻 2:10pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Todd-o-phonic Todd @2:08 hi there
	👻 2:10pm WLSClark: ↳ MOM WHIG @2:09 Much better today. Sun came out in last hour finally.
	👻 2:10pm Karl Ward: Joe, I posted something about this on JA's show earlier, but if you haven't heard the story I'll bet you'll get a kick out of it. Here's Billy Gibbons talking about touring with Hendrix: “He was always practicing. Always curious about the next unusual twist. He was fascinated by Jeff Beck’s playing. I have vivid recollections of tip-toeing into Hendrix’s hotel room, and he always had a record player, a giant piece of furniture, in his room. He said: ‘Man, how do you think Jeff Beck is doing this?’ And I said: ‘Well, I can probably imagine Jeff Beck is scratching his head wondering the same about you.’” www.loudersound.com...
	👻 2:10pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Chili MacPagoda @2:09 Well - get her started then
	2:11pm Joe B: ↳ tim from washington @2:08 from wiki: McCarty claims that Relf was the first to use the name; he may have gotten it from Jack Kerouac's novel On the Road, where it referred to rail yard hobos.[10] He adds that Topham identified it as a nickname for jazz saxophonist Charlie "Yardbird" Parker.
	2:11pm tim from washington: Todd-o-phonic - Thanks for the birthday well wishes on Father Flot’s show last night!
	👻 2:11pm Candy-O'67: Hey Joe and everyone! Tuning in!
	👻 2:11pm WLSClark: ↳ Karl Ward @2:10 Awesome!
	👻 2:11pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Candy-O'67 @2:11 Good to see you
	👻 2:12pm WLSClark: ↳ Candy-O'67 @2:11 Dandy candy!
	2:12pm Joe B: hey TOPT!
	2:12pm Rich Haley: Hey Joe, Shakin' Street family
	👻 2:12pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Rich Haley @2:12 hi there
	2:13pm Joe B: ↳ Karl Ward @2:10 Beck recently claimed he still practiced at least 2 hours daily!
	2:13pm McGroovey: I just went to Tunes last night and bought the good Yardbirds comps they had. (In case you went in there today and wondered why there weren't any.)
	👻 2:13pm WLSClark: ↳ Karl Ward @2:10 Maybe the record player looked big because Jeff had it on a "plynth"!!!
	2:13pm tim from washington: ↳ Joe B @2:11 Thanks Joe! I don’t know how I came up with that - ha!
	2:13pm Joe B: hey candy-o!
	2:13pm tim from washington: Yo Candy!
	👻 2:13pm Karl Ward: ↳ Joe B @2:11 OED says: 1. a new military recruit, especially one assigned to menial tasks. 2. a convict. 3. a chicken. Origin, US, 1940s.
	2:14pm Joe B: hey Rich!
	👻 2:14pm Candy-O'67: ↳ MOM WHIG @2:11 Same to you, Mom! How are you feeling today? We got cooler weather today. High will it be 62. Very sunny!☀️
	2:14pm tim from washington: ↳ McGroovey @2:13 Are there bad ones?
	2:14pm Christina Ginger: ↳ Joe B @2:13 Dedication to practice! i just read that he restored his house that was built in the 1500’s on his own.
	👻 2:14pm Candy-O'67: ↳ WLSClark @2:12 Hey there Clark! Hope you're have a great weekend!
	👻 2:14pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: Happy Friday Joe! I haven't listened to solo Jeff Beck since I was 16 but I'm enjoying the Yardbirds tunes.
	2:15pm Joe B: ↳ tim from washington @2:13 you could be right. that is wikipedia after all
	2:15pm Joe B: welcome mcgroov!
	👻 2:15pm Candy-O'67: ↳ Christina Ginger @2:14 That's cool, CG. Hey!
	👻 2:15pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Jeff formerly from Rahway @2:14 good to see you
	👻 2:15pm Frank In Queens: ↳ Christina Ginger @2:14 He was a car fanatic as well, doing most if not all of the restoration work and maintenance himself.
	👻 2:15pm Candy-O'67: ↳ tim from washington @2:14 Hey Tim!
	👻 2:15pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Song: "Over Under Sideways Down" by "The Yardbirds" I of course grew up on this one
	2:16pm Joe B: hey Jeff!
	2:16pm patrick321: ↳ MOM WHIG @2:07 Hi MOM W and everybody shakin' to this set!
	2:16pm McGroovey: ↳ tim from washington @2:14 There are many bad Yardbirds comps. If you mean, does Tunes have any of the bad ones? Yes, 2 or 3, though they are priced cheap, so maybe they're not a waste of your money.
	2:17pm Christina Ginger: ↳ Candy-O'67 @2:15 Hi Candy! And, hi MOM!
	👻 2:17pm MOM WHIG: ↳ McGroovey @2:16 hi there
	👻 2:17pm Candy-O'67: ↳ patrick321 @2:16 Hey Patrick!
	2:17pm McGroovey: ↳ MOM WHIG @2:17 Hi there!
	2:17pm tim from washington: ↳ McGroovey @2:16 I was mainly curious.
	2:18pm Chili MacPagoda: ↳ MOM WHIG @2:10 Ok they’re both into it dancing now. Doing something that resembles a hybrid of the Running Man & the Cabbage Patch. They call it the Sturdy! The youngest said the “Yardbirds make my head spin and give me energy!!”
	2:18pm tim from washington: MOM. - when’s your drop in show?
	2:18pm Sissophonic Cheryl: Hellooooo Joe!
	👻 2:18pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Chili MacPagoda @2:18 Perfect - dancing is a good sign
	2:18pm Joe B: hey Cheryl!
	👻 2:19pm MOM WHIG: ↳ tim from washington @2:18 Feb 25
	👻 2:19pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Sissophonic Cheryl @2:18 hi there
	2:19pm McGroovey: Yes, the BBC sessions CD is one of the ones I grabbed last night.
	2:19pm Joe B: 'what do you want' probably influenced the Feelies
	2:19pm tim from washington: The Hentchmen did a ripping cover of Psych Daisies with Jack White tearing up the solos.
	2:20pm Joe B: ↳ McGroovey @2:19 amazing disc. and yeah lots of dodgy yardbirds comps out there
	2:20pm patrick321: ↳ Candy-O'67 @2:17 Hey Candy-O!
	👻 2:20pm medson: ↳ Joe B @2:19 I did hear crazy rhythms there
	2:20pm Joe B: ↳ tim from washington @2:19 there's a theme set - detroit bands jack white was briefly in!
	2:20pm Miss V: Hola from Brooklyn!
	2:20pm Joe B: ↳ medson @2:20 surprised i never noticed it until just now!
	2:21pm Joe B: ↳ Miss V @2:20 welcome miss v!
	👻 2:21pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Miss V @2:20 hi there
	2:22pm McGroovey: Beck sounds great on these Yardbirds things, but there wasn't always much room to stretch out for him, which is I suppose why he left. One thing I was noticing as I was listening last night was how ultra-solid the Yardbirds rhythm section was.
	👻 2:23pm WLSClark: How many garage acts patterned their playing of this classic around Jeff's?
	2:23pm Joe B: ↳ McGroovey @2:22 I guess once they had a few hits, stretching out was out the window
	2:23pm Christina Ginger: ↳ Song: "You're A Better Man Than I" by "The Yardbirds" I’ve always been partial to this song.
	👻 2:24pm medson: ↳ Joe B @2:20 Weird how that happens all of a sudden with things you've heard a million times
	2:24pm patrick321: ↳ Christina Ginger @2:23 I second that emotion, Christine.
	👻 2:24pm Candy-O'67: Big night here in Austin. Schizophonics are playing at Hotel Vegas and Jonathan Toubin is DJ'g at 13th Floor! Gonna do both!😁. JR HouTex is coming for Schizophonics, too!
	2:24pm Joe B: ↳ Christina Ginger @2:23 amazing how many 60s covers there are of this song for it not being a big hit
	👻 2:24pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Song: "You're A Better Man Than I" by "The Yardbirds" Super tune
	2:24pm tim from washington: ↳ Joe B @2:20 Ha! Actually I have a theory that Jack White is a modern day Eric Clapton (but not as despicable). Both started their careers on a high note, both were auxillary members of other bands but their solo careers have diminishing returns.
	2:25pm Joe B: ↳ Candy-O'67 @2:24 damn wish i was there!
	2:25pm patrick321: ↳ patrick321 @2:24 Christina, sorry.
	👻 2:25pm Candy-O'67: ↳ Joe B @2:25 Me, too, Joe!
	2:25pm tim from washington: ↳ Candy-O'67 @2:24 Sounds fun!
	2:26pm patrick321: ↳ Candy-O'67 @2:24 Jonathan Toubin does a fun show!
	👻 2:26pm Candy-O'67: ↳ tim from washington @2:25 It will be! Always love seeing Schizophonics! I know them from living in CA, too. Always a great show and fun hang!
	2:27pm Chili MacPagoda: My nine year old niece decided that these guys “might be a little better than Taylor Swift, but just a little.” A tiny ray of hope for the future…
	2:27pm Christina Ginger: ↳ Joe B @2:24 I think the minor key and ability to make it a little snarly really lent itself, but then it also has the ability to go the folk route because of the lyrics… ah, versatility.
	👻 2:27pm MOM WHIG: Joe - these are all Still so Amazing to me thanks
	2:27pm McGroovey: ↳ Song: "You're A Better Man Than I" by "The Yardbirds" I know the New Colony Six version of this the best, because I got a (Sundazed?) NC6 CD in the '90s. I haven't listened to it in ages. I should pull it out.
	👻 2:28pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Chili MacPagoda @2:27 These last two are the best
	👻 2:29pm WLSClark: ↳ McGroovey @2:27 So good, they put it on BOTH first 2 LPs diff versions!
	👻 2:29pm Joel: Knew this would be the place to be. Thanks for doing this Joe
	👻 2:29pm Frank In Queens: ↳ McGroovey @2:22 The guitarists usually get all the attention, but the rest of the band were also stellar musicians; and versatile. And Relf was a fantastic singer and harmonica player.
	👻 2:29pm MOM WHIG: ↳ WLSClark @2:29 Yes so good
	2:30pm Joe B: ↳ Joel @2:29 thanks for being here joel!
	2:30pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: I was at the Jeff Beck career retrospective at Royal Festival Hall in 2002. There was a 20 minute Yardbirds segment with Beck, The White Stripes and Little Jack Lawrence on bass that was very cool. There is footage on YouTube (of course).
	👻 2:30pm WLSClark: ↳ Song: "The Nazz Are Blue" by "The Yardbirds" Hmm, this never influenced anyone, did it? TR & Co!
	👻 2:30pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Joel @2:29 glad you made it here
	2:30pm Chili MacPagoda: ↳ MOM WHIG @2:28 Shapes is a bit of a mind blower, they sound about five years ahead of the pack. And this sustained note in Nazz manages to somehow sound evil and psychedelic. Masterful stuff
	2:31pm Joe B: ↳ Todd-o-phonic Todd @2:30 that must have been great!
	👻 2:31pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Chili MacPagoda @2:30 I just played some of these last nite too. They are magic still
	👻 2:31pm Frank In Queens: ↳ Todd-o-phonic Todd @2:30 I was watching clips from that the other night. Great stuff.
	2:32pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: ↳ tim from washington @2:11 You are welcome, my friend.
	2:33pm tim from washington: ↳ Song: "Evil Hearted You" by "The Yardbirds" Another favorite!
	2:34pm Christina Ginger: ↳ tim from washington @2:33 Yes!
	2:35pm tim from washington: I forgot which Yardbirds went on to folkie kinda prog Renaissance? I always that it was an interesting direction to go in instead of the way most of their peers went.
	2:35pm Chili MacPagoda: ↳ Song: "Stroll On" by "The Yardbirds" One of my favorite film scenes ever.
	2:36pm Joe B: ↳ tim from washington @2:35 relf and mccarty
	👻 2:37pm Frank In Queens: ↳ Joe B @2:36 And then Relf went onto Armageddon.
	👻 2:37pm WLSClark: Just read that Zaentz can no longer dance as musch as he did. After all these years, John Fogerty has gotten publishing for most of his song catalog!
	2:38pm tim from washington: ↳ Chili MacPagoda @2:35 Yeah! The first time I saw that I nearly stood up and started yelling in my living room.
	2:38pm Atomic Spork: Ya ya ya. Ya ya ya. Ya ya ya. Ya ya ya. Ya YA ya ya ya ya.
	2:39pm Joe B: ↳ WLSClark @2:37 sadly after saul raked in gazillions of dollars
	2:39pm McGroovey: ↳ Song: "Stroll On" by "The Yardbirds" I was just watching the Yardbirds cameo in The Blow Up last night. I wished it was longer. But this song is vicious. Not viscous. Well, maybe a little viscous. But not in a bad way. But certainly vicious.
	2:39pm Zipperhead7: Wow! you are doing da Boids credit this afternoon. In 1966 they played my hometown of Bartlesville Oklahoma as part of a Dick Clark tour. Jimmy and Jeff! That same day they played Tulsa and Cherryvale, Kansas. No wonder Beck split shortly thereafter. I can only imagine what it must have been like to be an English longhair in those 'Murcan backwaters in 1966
	👻 2:39pm MikeG: Get your Ya Ya Ya Ya Ya Ya Ya Ya Ya's out!
	2:41pm Chili MacPagoda: ↳ tim from washington @2:38 Each time I see it I think, maaaan wish I was there.
	2:41pm McGroovey: ↳ Frank In Queens @2:29 I love the Armageddon album. I had to special-order it in the early eighties to get myself a copy. It still lurked in distributors' back stock at the time, apparently. It was in the catalog, but not stocked by stores
	👻 2:42pm WLSClark: ↳ Zipperhead7 @2:39 Hey watch it Okie, Im a Kansan! haha That first tour started in OKC for ONE reason: it was the city where For Your Love went to #1. We aint so stupid in midwest.
	2:43pm Chili MacPagoda: There’s a hilarious anecdote Chris Dreja told about Sam Phillips on how he should play his instrument. Worth looking up haha
	👻 2:43pm medson: Great tribute Joe.
	👻 2:45pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Song: "Heart Full Of Soul" by "The Yardbirds" The BEST EVer
	2:45pm Zipperhead7: YES re: Shapes of Things. Such an avant-garde imagination (the break played on one string!!!) with that choir of feedback behind it and final brain-freezing treble blast. And I'll bet he made it up largely off the cuff
	2:45pm McGroovey: ↳ Song: "Heart Full Of Soul" by "The Yardbirds" As great a song as this is, I think it was the kind of thing that frustrated Beck: he had to play that same signature lick every time on this song, and the little solo is the same on this BBC version as on the single.
	2:45pm tim from washington: My favorite moment seeing Sonic Youth was Thurston talking to someone near the stage. “Nice shirt, man! Oh. Never mind. I thought you were wearing a Yardbirds shirt”
	2:47pm McGroovey: ↳ Zipperhead7 @2:45 But the Beck solo version on Truth is more paint-melting.
	2:47pm Joe B: having a rave up with the mccoys
	2:48pm tim from washington: ↳ Joe B @2:47 Ha!
	👻 2:48pm Joel: Just watching a video of a Beck performance at Ronnie Scotts and who is in the audience but Jimmie Page having a grand time
	👻 2:49pm WLSClark: Cool hearing all these live versions--they could play so well to record when they wanted--or when they didn't too!
	2:50pm Mike Sin: Been listening but only now have been able to comment because of work -- enjoying this tribute immensely!
	2:50pm Zipperhead7: ↳ McGroovey @2:47 Here's a great show from Fillmore West, 12/7/68. Listen to the one note at 34:49 that slides into screaming feedback. A portal into psychotic delirium! The whole show is worth a listen, even if it’s a cruddy audience recording. Try not to smile when he tears into the “Beverly Hillbillies” theme during the show: www.youtube.com...
	2:51pm Joe B: hey Mike!
	2:51pm bigplanetnoise: Great tribute, JB…. Every cut still stuns.
	👻 2:52pm MOM WHIG: ↳ bigplanetnoise @2:51 Good Day to you
	2:52pm efd: been here pretty much since the start, this has been great so far Joe!
	2:52pm McGroovey: ↳ Song: "Smokestack Lightnin'" by "The Yardbirds" Wouldn't this have been Clapton, not Beck? I'm not an expert on the Yardbirds discography.
	👻 2:52pm WLSClark: Hi BPN! Hope your holiday (and birthday?) have been great!
	2:53pm McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @2:52 But I guess it does sound a bit more like Beck.
	2:53pm bigplanetnoise: Hi Mom! Thanks, Clark - it sure was!
	👻 2:55pm MOM WHIG: ↳ efd @2:52 good to see you
	2:55pm Mike Sin: Looking at all three of the Yardbirds' stellar guitarists, Beck has always been the most "otherworldly," as it were. What separates him is the way he used his influences to very quickly move into unexplored styles and technological directions. Unlike say, Clapton or Page, who spent a longer time harnessing and stretching direct influences and expanding "worlds," Beck was downright amazing in the way he quickly created his own new "world" of guitar playing.
	2:55pm Joe B: ↳ bigplanetnoise @2:51 thanks for being here bpn!
	2:55pm Joe B: ↳ efd @2:52 thanks efd!
	2:56pm tim from washington: Joe - are you just sticking with the Yardbirds today?
	2:56pm Joe B: ↳ McGroovey @2:52 this is beck on this version. clapton did one bbc session with them, and it apparently has not survived
	2:57pm Zipperhead7: ↳ Mike Sin @2:55 Well said! Beck's playng at this time was peerless
	2:57pm tim from washington: efd! You’re show on Wednesday was top notch radio! You nailed the post!
	2:57pm Joe B: ↳ McGroovey @2:53 listed as december 1965, so no way it would be clapton
	2:58pm Joe B: ↳ Mike Sin @2:55 well said mike!
	2:58pm Joe B: ↳ tim from washington @2:56 no!
	2:58pm Mike Sin: As it was the 1960s, time seems stretched and "longer"... How long was Beck in the Yardbirds? 18,19 months? And yet look what went down in that blink.
	2:59pm Chili MacPagoda: ↳ Mike Sin @2:55 Spot on. I always thought of Beck being more akin to Hendrix than the other two. Drawing on a wide array of influences - maybe hearing some Hawaiian slack key guitar and thinking, that’s good how can I adapt that? Seemed to embrace the weird in their influences and practiced constantly. Like coming up with a new language.
	2:59pm efd: ↳ tim from washington @2:57 thanks tim!
	3:00pm Joe B: guess they felt a little guilty about clipping all these tunes so they played the originals live?
	👻 3:00pm WLSClark: ↳ Joe B @2:57 ANYONE that wants all the Beck info, that book "Jeff's Book" is incredible day to day listings of everything! I cant believe it was even made.
	3:00pm ModnikBri: Out of all the Yardbirds guitarist Beck was my favorite. So sad. When I was little, My mom took out a video of Jeff Beck and I called him John Rock
	👻 3:01pm WLSClark: Hi Bri, Mike sin, efd
	👻 3:02pm WLSClark: all of these YBirds in ONE HOUR! Joe, "you're gonna need a bigger YARD!"
	👻 3:02pm MOM WHIG: ↳ ModnikBri @3:00 hi there
	3:02pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...just haven't even been able to yet with Beck ...so appreciate the help here. We'll see what happens when I can touch my gittar again.
	👻 3:02pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:02 Afternoon to you
	3:02pm ModnikBri: ↳ MOM WHIG @3:02 Hey Mom Whig!
	3:02pm ModnikBri: ↳ WLSClark @3:01 Hey!
	3:03pm ModnikBri: The owl was playing a lot of Keith’s solo stuff last night
	3:03pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: ↳ McGroovey @2:45 He blew the solo on Shindig!
	👻 3:04pm Frank In Queens: ↳ Mike Sin @2:55 He was the best player of his generation. Certainly among the Brits anyway.
	3:04pm Mike Sin: ↳ Chili MacPagoda @2:59 Yes, with Clapton, his talent is enormous of course, but it feels like he spent a lot more time just digging deeper and expanding his Albert King infatuation. But, with something like "Heart Full of Soul," I can't imagine anyone else but Jeff Beck at the time processing the sitar in his fingers.
	3:05pm tim from washington: Is it true That Beck didn’t tune, he just bent the strings in tune while playing?
	3:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I always wanted to be JeffBeck in the yARdbiRdS - & I always will. There's no other way to parse it. As Vernon Reid posted - every Gittar Player associated with Rawk Music is fucked up right now. That's what happened today.
	3:05pm McGroovey: ↳ Todd-o-phonic Todd @3:03 "I meant to do that!' Sometimes, "mistakes" end up being the only opportunity for improvisation.
	3:05pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: It's hilarious that Clapton left The Yardbirds because of "pop crap" and went on to record some of the worst and most banal "pop crap" ever.
	3:06pm Joe B: ↳ Todd-o-phonic Todd @3:05 spot on!
	👻 3:06pm Frank In Queens: ↳ Todd-o-phonic Todd @3:05 Ah, to be young and idealistic....
	3:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Mike Sin @3:04 Hendrix came to England & devastated the landscape so - what Beck accomplished in the yARdbiRdS before that is too little recognized by the mainstream.
	3:06pm Zipperhead7: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:05 Interesting how the guitar solo has been replaced by the "guest rap" in contemporary pop
	3:06pm McGroovey: ↳ Todd-o-phonic Todd @3:05 People make dumb mistaches
	3:07pm Christina Ginger: ↳ Todd-o-phonic Todd @3:05 Irony tends to be lost on egos.
	3:07pm patrick321: ↳ Mike Sin @2:55 Mike take a look at Karl Ward's comment near the beginning of the show about 2:10
	👻 3:07pm WLSClark: ↳ Todd-o-phonic Todd @3:05 Yeah, look at what Beck was still doing while Clapton languished for nearly 40 years in whatever he was in......
	👻 3:07pm Karl Ward: ↳ patrick321 @3:07 Uh oh am I in trouble?
	3:08pm tim from washington: ↳ Christina Ginger @3:07 Ooh! Can I borrow that quote? Spot on!
	3:08pm Zipperhead7: Joe, are you sitting in a cathedral?
	3:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Todd-o-phonic Todd @3:05 Not unsusal to like one period of an Artist more than another - but have ambiguity for Clpaton like no other. I still wanna be in Cream & I can't lie. It seems that Clapton shouldn't be left Solo essentially. :D
	👻 3:09pm Frank In Queens: Clapton's solo on "I Ain't Got You" is pretty searing all while staying with in the parameters of "blues".
	3:09pm Mike Sin: ↳ Todd-o-phonic Todd @3:05 Dunno. I can't hold him to his "teenage" mind. After hearing Clapton's work in the Bluesbreakers and Cream, I understand exactly why he left the Yardbirds. Can't comment on where his mind went post-heroin oblivion... That said, yes, Beck even in the 21st century was walking his very specific path.
	3:09pm tim from washington: ↳ Todd-o-phonic Todd @3:05 What RSO records aren’t a trademark of musical integrity?
	👻 3:10pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: Joe, somewhere in my house I have an autographed photo of Lord Sutch at a record store in downtown Toms River I gotta look for it.
	3:11pm Christina Ginger: ↳ tim from washington @3:08 You may absolutely borrow it.
	3:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ WLSClark @3:07 ...while I wanna be Beck in the yARdbiRdS - he then partly invented Heavy ...& then a whole other altitude of Virtuosity with really his own variety of Fusion - totally successfully imho ...& still more really than I've ever been able to process as a Gittar Diddler. The One & the Only. East Bay Ray actually put it well: He gave people Chaos & Beauty @ the same time.
	3:11pm Joe B: ↳ Jeff formerly from Rahway @3:10 wow never made it to a record store in toms river. other than buying Snap by the Jam at Caldor on rt 37!
	3:11pm McGroovey: ↳ Song: "Come Back Baby" by "Screaming "Lord" Sutch" This is definitely vicious and viscous
	3:11pm tim from washington: I’d rather have Beck babysit my kids than Clapton.
	3:12pm Joe B: ↳ tim from washington @3:11 his closed window policy
	3:12pm patrick321: ↳ Karl Ward @3:07 No it's a good story and seemed in line with what Mike was stalking about. I actually shared it with another friend of mine.
	3:12pm tim from washington: ↳ Song: "Come Back Baby" by "Screaming "Lord" Sutch" Nuts!!!
	👻 3:12pm Frank In Queens: ↳ Song: "The Dog Presides" by "Paul Jones" Great one!
	3:12pm tim from washington: ↳ Joe B @3:12 Ha!
	3:13pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: ↳ tim from washington @3:11 Don't leave him around your wife either.
	3:13pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: My buddy Paul Jones!
	3:13pm Alvy Singer: ↳ Song: "The Dog Presides" by "Paul Jones" What a completely bizarre record with such a stellar line up. Thanks for this!
	👻 3:14pm Joel: Wow, this is ripping..
	3:14pm tim from washington: ↳ Todd-o-phonic Todd @3:13 Ha! Yeah, then I’d get my face rubbed in it with a double LP!
	3:15pm David Watts: great show Joe! I love this song.
	3:15pm McGroovey: ↳ Song: "The Dog Presides" by "Paul Jones" Great song. Never heard it before. Google says Paul McCartney is on drums.
	3:15pm Chili MacPagoda: ↳ Song: "I Can't Make Your Way" by "The Yardbirds" Right now, this my favorite Yardbirds track. The brief solo midway is just too perfect
	3:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Where Beck was coming from to alloy equal parts Inventiveness, Virtuosity & Expression - without violating any of them in favor of the other ...& occasionally even really good Taste for a Shredder ...Hendrix of course serves as an infallible North Star to navigate by ...but so does JeffBeck, & in his own way. Watching a video of the JB Group doing Lay Lady Lay ...nothing he does is the standard 'gittar solo'. Just ...open-mouthed over it.
	3:17pm McGroovey: ↳ Song: "The Dog Presides" by "Paul Jones" "For Beck, who reportedly earned a week’s rent from ‘The Dog Presides’, there was only one regret: “Well, all I remember [about it] was hoping Paul McCartney would sing“."
	3:17pm Woo: Hey Joe and all
	3:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Chili MacPagoda @3:15 & on some of the 'Roger' album he's way back in the mix ...like they didn't know what this was yet...
	3:18pm Joe B: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:17 on the stereo. you have to get the mono version
	3:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: & Beck also as a figure - the Boho Gittar Wizard charting his own path with an attitude ...eventually not even really caring about Records @ all. Just let him loose to Play. He'll be missed as a personality too. (If I sometimes think as a Classic Rawker that SpinalTap made a few notes...)
	3:20pm Chili MacPagoda: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:17 Exactly. Funny, Rev, I was just wondering about the mix on that lp yesterday. Hearing “Turn To Earth” and thinking, why is JB mixed so far in the background? Because the sounds he’s coaxing out of his Fender are indeed otherworldly. Perhaps he terrified the old studio engineer with its eldritch magic.
	3:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Joe B @3:18 Interesting.
	👻 3:22pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Woo @3:17 good to see you
	3:23pm McGroovey: ↳ Song: "Happenings Ten Years Time Ago" by "The Yardbirds" The Todd Rundgren version of this is great. Though it's pretty much a note-for-note redo. But the recording sounds like 1976.
	3:23pm Zipperhead7: Check out the Yardbirds ad for Great Shakes: www.youtube.com... Right up there with "Rice Krispies" by the Stones, "White Levis" byJefferson Airplane and "Camaro" by Quicksilver Messenger Service
	3:23pm Woo: ↳ MOM WHIG @3:22 You too MOM WHIG. I was taking a mid-day nap
	3:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: That he was also a HotRod enthusiast is the perfect analogy. Take an old style classic & mod it out - yourself - to your own unique specifications. The HanSolo of RawkVirtuosity.
	👻 3:24pm WLSClark: Happenings 10 years ago is 50 years ahead of its time
	👻 3:24pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Woo @3:23 Still waiting for mine
	3:25pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: ↳ McGroovey @3:15 Everything you'd want to know about "The Dog Presides" and more: www.wfmu.org...
	👻 3:25pm WLSClark: ↳ Zipperhead7 @3:23 White Levis is just so absurdly beautiful
	3:27pm McGroovey: ↳ Zipperhead7 @2:50 I want to listen to this, but not until the show is over. But judging by your description, I think I may have this, downloaded through BitTorrent
	👻 3:28pm WLSClark: If my Gregorian Chant class would have been this good, I might have finished college. Well, maybe not......
	3:28pm Alvy Singer: ↳ Zipperhead7 @3:23 Falstaff Beer by Cream. www.youtube.com...
	3:29pm McGroovey: ↳ Todd-o-phonic Todd @3:25 Ooh. And I was actually listening, because I commented on Paul's drumming then also. I've forgotten more than I'll ever know.
	3:29pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Turn Into Earth" by "The Yardbirds" I forgot the Yardbirds did another Gregorian chant besides "Still I'm Sad". Did those inspire the Stooges' "We Will Fall"?
	3:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Turn Into Earth" by "The Yardbirds" 'Roger the Engineer' 1966 like of course 'Revolver' - an interesting compare & contrast.
	3:31pm McGroovey: I think my copy of the Roger the Engineer CD has two tracks with Beck and Page. I can't recall what the second one was.
	3:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ David Shortell @3:29 One would presume ! Stooges' first Produced by JohnCale of course. They showed up in NYC with not even enuff songs yet...
	3:32pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Happenings Ten Years Time Ago" by "The Yardbirds" I believe this and its B-side "Psycho Daisies" were indeed the only songs by the group to feature both Beck and Page, Joe.
	3:33pm ModnikBri: Yess! My favorite version of Shapes!
	3:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ McGroovey @3:31 ...there's 'Stroll On' in the BlowUp film of course with Beck & Page. 'Beck's Bolero' had Page, Moon, JohnPaulJones.
	3:35pm ModnikBri: I was lucky to have been introduced to Jeff Beck and This era of Rod Stewart at such a young age!!
	3:35pm David Shortell: ↳ McGroovey @3:31 Those CD bonus tracks are the songs I referred to in my last post, McG.
	👻 3:36pm Frank In Queens: ↳ Song: "Let Me Love You" by "Jeff Beck Group" Aw yeah!
	3:37pm Alvy Singer: ↳ Song: "Shapes of Things" by "Jeff Beck Group" Mick Waller drums on all the tracks except Beck's Bolero, which is drummed by none other than Keith Moon. Interestingly enough, Waller and Moon have very similar styles.
	👻 3:37pm WLSClark: I just read Macca's comments on Jeff's death, but not seen what Rod said. Anyone hear what he had to say?
	3:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Shapes of Things" by "Jeff Beck Group" Recognize how much JBGroup were a precedent to Zep & such. Still Produced by MickieMost tho & not honestly my favorite Beck ? Maybe hard to put myself in the 1968 context actually...I wouldn't be without it - but a struggle to find himself for some time I think.
	3:37pm tim from washington: ↳ ModnikBri @3:35 Wow! That’s great! I didn’t catch on to how great Rod Stewart was until I was in my 30s.
	3:37pm ModnikBri: ↳ WLSClark @3:37 He said we lost a talent, or something like that, I forget
	3:38pm ModnikBri: ↳ tim from washington @3:37 I’m just now discovering Rod’s mod phase!
	3:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Let Me Love You" by "Jeff Beck Group" Hella fun really ...like Zep without the aftertaste...
	👻 3:39pm Frank In Queens: ↳ tim from washington @3:37 Me too. It took his work with Jeff Beck to get me to not completely write him off.
	👻 3:39pm Frank In Queens: ↳ Frank In Queens @3:39 Well, maybe late 20s.
	3:39pm McGroovey: ↳ Alvy Singer @3:37 Wikipedia says: Clem Cattini – drums on "Hi Ho Silver Lining" Aynsley Dunbar – drums on "Tallyman" and "Rock My Plimsoul (single version)" (The last one is a CD bonus track)
	3:40pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Psycho Daisies" by "The Yardbirds" The Mary Hughes mentioned in the last verse was Jeff's girlfriend, an "actor" in American International beach pictures. imdb.com...
	3:40pm McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @3:39 Oh. So is Tallyman, I guess.
	👻 3:40pm WLSClark: ↳ ModnikBri @3:37 Good that he acknowledged him in some way, at least. Thanks, Bri
	👻 3:40pm Frank In Queens: And man, Ronnie Wood certainly holds his own on bass on this stuff.
	3:41pm tim from washington: The Faces have become on of my favorites in the past 10-15 years.
	3:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Informative doc on 60s Beck - if lotsa talking heads type production : www.youtube.com...
	3:42pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ tim from washington @3:41 Deserve some of that love the Stones get, maybe ?
	👻 3:42pm WLSClark: I could see a Jeff Beck Group/Faces w/Rod: "From Plynth to around the Plynth!"
	3:42pm Chili MacPagoda: ↳ Frank In Queens @3:40 Nonstop gigging with The Birds & Creation, Ronnie became a MONSTER on the bass. Was just listening to his parts on these tracks, so dope.
	3:42pm Zipperhead7: ↳ Frank In Queens @3:40 Oh god yes! His outtro on "Spanish Boots" is a revelation
	3:43pm Joe B: ↳ WLSClark @3:42 ha!
	👻 3:44pm MOM WHIG: Chili - did the dancers get tired?
	3:45pm ModnikBri: ↳ WLSClark @3:40 Of course!
	3:45pm Chili MacPagoda: ↳ MOM WHIG @3:44 Snack time. I have them in front of the tv watching Julia Child on Youtube. They’re fascinated with her.
	3:45pm Alvy Singer: ↳ Song: "Spanish Boots" by "Jeff Beck Group" Ron Wood using a late 60's Fender Tele bass with Rotosounds and a pick played through a cranked Marshall Major.
	👻 3:45pm Karl Ward: ↳ Song: "Spanish Boots" by "Jeff Beck Group" Hey I heard that crossfade on the master, they didn't sneak it by me
	👻 3:46pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Chili MacPagoda @3:45 Hopefully not mocking her ACCENT! HA HA
	👻 3:46pm Karl Ward: Also, Hi MOM
	3:46pm McGroovey: ↳ Karl Ward @3:45 Eagle ears!
	3:46pm Zipperhead7: c'est la merde, as they say in France. God this raging bass
	3:46pm tim from washington: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:42 Ha! My back door into the Faces was “Wow! These are the best Stones songs they ever made”. Then I realized that they were just the best songs!
	3:46pm David Shortell: WFMU decal illustrator Ward Sutton paid tribute to Jeff: mobile.twitter.com...
	3:49pm patrick321: ↳ WLSClark @3:40 Rod's 2 tweets at this link. twitter.com...
	3:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ David Shortell @3:46 :D ...wish Becks Hansen & Jeff had worked together. They easily could've.
	3:49pm McGroovey: I don't suppose you'll have time to get to the fusiony stuff. I know maybe we're not supposed to admit we liked that stuff, but I do, and I ain't afraid to admit it.
	👻 3:50pm WLSClark: ↳ David Shortell @3:46 I could surer believe that "accidental sales" crap from some label guru
	👻 3:51pm Karl Ward: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:49 Beck Hansen, Jeff Beck, with Walter Becker producing. I would call the supergroup Beck, Becker, and Beckest.
	👻 3:51pm WLSClark: ↳ patrick321 @3:49 Thanks, Patrick. Glad he made such a nice statement!
	3:51pm Zipperhead7: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:49 that would have been supercool
	3:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ McGroovey @3:49 Think Wired & BlowByBlow were more relevant than this RodStewart period. Groovy as it is.
	3:52pm Chop Scott: Thanks Joe--fantastic tribute.
	3:52pm David Shortell: I'm amazed that there seems to be no performance film footage of the "Truth" group. At least Ron Wood's previous group, the Birds, appeared in "The Deadly Bees".
	👻 3:52pm MOM WHIG: Joe - You've Done An AMAZING tribute here today - We can never forget him.
	👻 3:52pm WLSClark: ↳ Karl Ward @3:51 OR just "Bequest"???
	3:53pm Woo: Thanks Joe! Great!
	👻 3:53pm Joel: Thanks again Joe for an amazing show. You too are in a class of your own !!!
	3:53pm patrick321: All of this and you kept it all in the 60s, Joe. Thanks for a great 2 hours distracting me from work! Have a good weekend all
	3:53pm Joe B: ↳ MOM WHIG @3:52 thanks Mom!
	3:53pm Alvy Singer: Great stuff today Joe. Thank you.
	3:53pm ModnikBri: This song will forever remind me of Frank from now on!
	👻 3:53pm medson: Thanks Joe, great trip as always
	👻 3:53pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Woo @3:53 Now my Siesta time
	👻 3:53pm WLSClark: GREAT show and great ending song, Joe!
	3:53pm Joe B: thanks everyone! appreciate it!
	👻 3:53pm Karl Ward: ↳ WLSClark @3:52 Oh their album could be "Who's Becker? Who's Beckest?"
	3:53pm Woo: ↳ MOM WHIG @3:53 Safe and restful sleep MOM WHIG!
	3:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Beck's Bolero" by "Jeff Beck Group" Effortless slide player. Just gobsmacking.
	👻 3:54pm WLSClark: ↳ patrick321 @3:53 Possibly the BEST thing about it!
	👻 3:54pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Woo @3:53 Thanks see you later then
	👻 3:54pm Frank In Queens: ↳ McGroovey @3:49 That stuff is fantastic, and a prime example of what a monstrous player he was. I'll say it again, best of his generation of countrymen.
	3:55pm McGroovey: Great show, Joe!
	3:55pm Joe B: ↳ Frank In Queens @3:54 no argument here
	3:55pm tim from washington: Thanks Joe! It’s great to hear you 2 times a week.
	3:55pm ModnikBri: ↳ Frank In Queens @3:54 I’d have to agree!
	3:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Frank In Queens @3:54 His own corner of Fusion - as in everything.
	3:56pm Joe B: guess there was time for 2 more
	3:56pm Zipperhead7: thankyouthankyouthankyou Joe! A most excellent tribute
	👻 3:56pm WLSClark: ↳ Karl Ward @3:53 OR "I never lived in a Box of Frogs"
	👻 3:56pm Frank In Queens: ↳ Joe B @3:55 There's a bit of room for debate on this, but not much. Great show today!
	3:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Frank In Queens @3:54 Absolutely.
	3:57pm Mike Sin: All right! Nice one, JB!
	👻 3:57pm Candy-O'67: Thx so much, Joe! Killer tribute show to the one and only Jeff Beck!🙌❤️
	3:57pm Jessie: Great show Joe! Thanks!!
	3:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Frank In Queens @3:56 Clapton & Green in Blues - but when Clapton got an Award for Best Overall Guitarist - he said - I think you meant this for Jeff.
	👻 3:58pm Frank In Queens: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:57 And maybe McLaughlin for jazz, but those players are far more niche than Beck.
	3:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Frank In Queens @3:58 Word.
	3:59pm Zipperhead7: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:57 Ah,revrab -- nice to see you're a Peter Green fan. I did a proposal for Bloomsbury's 33 1/3 series on Green/Mac and waiting to hear back

	2:08pm Joe B: hey MOM!
	👻 2:08pm Frank In Queens: ↳ MOM WHIG @2:08 Hi there MOM
	2:08pm tim from washington: Yardbirds is British slang for those in the pokey?
	👻 2:09pm WLSClark: I didn't know it in 66, but my Crayn Shames hero, James Fairs, had to most certainly be a Beck fanatic.
	👻 2:09pm MOM WHIG: ↳ WLSClark @2:08 Hovering on 100% today so far - how about you?
	2:09pm Chili MacPagoda: ↳ MOM WHIG @2:07 The nine year old is going off with crazy dancing but my eleven year old niece needs answers to questions first - like what’s a YARDBIRD??
	👻 2:10pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Todd-o-phonic Todd @2:08 hi there
	👻 2:10pm WLSClark: ↳ MOM WHIG @2:09 Much better today. Sun came out in last hour finally.
	👻 2:10pm Karl Ward: Joe, I posted something about this on JA's show earlier, but if you haven't heard the story I'll bet you'll get a kick out of it. Here's Billy Gibbons talking about touring with Hendrix: “He was always practicing. Always curious about the next unusual twist. He was fascinated by Jeff Beck’s playing. I have vivid recollections of tip-toeing into Hendrix’s hotel room, and he always had a record player, a giant piece of furniture, in his room. He said: ‘Man, how do you think Jeff Beck is doing this?’ And I said: ‘Well, I can probably imagine Jeff Beck is scratching his head wondering the same about you.’” www.loudersound.com...
	👻 2:10pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Chili MacPagoda @2:09 Well - get her started then
	2:11pm Joe B: ↳ tim from washington @2:08 from wiki: McCarty claims that Relf was the first to use the name; he may have gotten it from Jack Kerouac's novel On the Road, where it referred to rail yard hobos.[10] He adds that Topham identified it as a nickname for jazz saxophonist Charlie "Yardbird" Parker.
	2:11pm tim from washington: Todd-o-phonic - Thanks for the birthday well wishes on Father Flot’s show last night!
	👻 2:11pm Candy-O'67: Hey Joe and everyone! Tuning in!
	👻 2:11pm WLSClark: ↳ Karl Ward @2:10 Awesome!
	👻 2:11pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Candy-O'67 @2:11 Good to see you

	2:12pm Rich Haley: Hey Joe, Shakin' Street family
	👻 2:12pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Rich Haley @2:12 hi there
	2:13pm Joe B: ↳ Karl Ward @2:10 Beck recently claimed he still practiced at least 2 hours daily!
	2:13pm McGroovey: I just went to Tunes last night and bought the good Yardbirds comps they had. (In case you went in there today and wondered why there weren't any.)
	👻 2:13pm WLSClark: ↳ Karl Ward @2:10 Maybe the record player looked big because Jeff had it on a "plynth"!!!
	2:13pm tim from washington: ↳ Joe B @2:11 Thanks Joe! I don’t know how I came up with that - ha!
	2:13pm Joe B: hey candy-o!
	2:13pm tim from washington: Yo Candy!
	👻 2:13pm Karl Ward: ↳ Joe B @2:11 OED says: 1. a new military recruit, especially one assigned to menial tasks. 2. a convict. 3. a chicken. Origin, US, 1940s.
	2:14pm Joe B: hey Rich!
	👻 2:14pm Candy-O'67: ↳ MOM WHIG @2:11 Same to you, Mom! How are you feeling today? We got cooler weather today. High will it be 62. Very sunny!☀️
	2:14pm tim from washington: ↳ McGroovey @2:13 Are there bad ones?
	2:14pm Christina Ginger: ↳ Joe B @2:13 Dedication to practice! i just read that he restored his house that was built in the 1500’s on his own.
	👻 2:14pm Candy-O'67: ↳ WLSClark @2:12 Hey there Clark! Hope you're have a great weekend!
	👻 2:14pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: Happy Friday Joe! I haven't listened to solo Jeff Beck since I was 16 but I'm enjoying the Yardbirds tunes.
	2:15pm Joe B: ↳ tim from washington @2:13 you could be right. that is wikipedia after all
	2:15pm Joe B: welcome mcgroov!
	👻 2:15pm Candy-O'67: ↳ Christina Ginger @2:14 That's cool, CG. Hey!
	👻 2:15pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Jeff formerly from Rahway @2:14 good to see you
	👻 2:15pm Frank In Queens: ↳ Christina Ginger @2:14 He was a car fanatic as well, doing most if not all of the restoration work and maintenance himself.
	👻 2:15pm Candy-O'67: ↳ tim from washington @2:14 Hey Tim!
	👻 2:15pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Song: "Over Under Sideways Down" by "The Yardbirds" I of course grew up on this one
	2:16pm Joe B: hey Jeff!
	2:16pm patrick321: ↳ MOM WHIG @2:07 Hi MOM W and everybody shakin' to this set!
	2:16pm McGroovey: ↳ tim from washington @2:14 There are many bad Yardbirds comps. If you mean, does Tunes have any of the bad ones? Yes, 2 or 3, though they are priced cheap, so maybe they're not a waste of your money.
	2:17pm Christina Ginger: ↳ Candy-O'67 @2:15 Hi Candy! And, hi MOM!
	👻 2:17pm MOM WHIG: ↳ McGroovey @2:16 hi there
	👻 2:17pm Candy-O'67: ↳ patrick321 @2:16 Hey Patrick!
	2:17pm McGroovey: ↳ MOM WHIG @2:17 Hi there!
	2:17pm tim from washington: ↳ McGroovey @2:16 I was mainly curious.
	2:18pm Chili MacPagoda: ↳ MOM WHIG @2:10 Ok they’re both into it dancing now. Doing something that resembles a hybrid of the Running Man & the Cabbage Patch. They call it the Sturdy! The youngest said the “Yardbirds make my head spin and give me energy!!”
	2:18pm tim from washington: MOM. - when’s your drop in show?
	2:18pm Sissophonic Cheryl: Hellooooo Joe!
	👻 2:18pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Chili MacPagoda @2:18 Perfect - dancing is a good sign
	2:18pm Joe B: hey Cheryl!
	👻 2:19pm MOM WHIG: ↳ tim from washington @2:18 Feb 25
	👻 2:19pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Sissophonic Cheryl @2:18 hi there
	2:19pm McGroovey: Yes, the BBC sessions CD is one of the ones I grabbed last night.
	2:19pm Joe B: 'what do you want' probably influenced the Feelies
	2:19pm tim from washington: The Hentchmen did a ripping cover of Psych Daisies with Jack White tearing up the solos.
	2:20pm Joe B: ↳ McGroovey @2:19 amazing disc. and yeah lots of dodgy yardbirds comps out there
	2:20pm patrick321: ↳ Candy-O'67 @2:17 Hey Candy-O!
	👻 2:20pm medson: ↳ Joe B @2:19 I did hear crazy rhythms there
	2:20pm Joe B: ↳ tim from washington @2:19 there's a theme set - detroit bands jack white was briefly in!
	2:20pm Miss V: Hola from Brooklyn!
	2:20pm Joe B: ↳ medson @2:20 surprised i never noticed it until just now!
	2:21pm Joe B: ↳ Miss V @2:20 welcome miss v!
	👻 2:21pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Miss V @2:20 hi there
	2:22pm McGroovey: Beck sounds great on these Yardbirds things, but there wasn't always much room to stretch out for him, which is I suppose why he left. One thing I was noticing as I was listening last night was how ultra-solid the Yardbirds rhythm section was.
	👻 2:23pm WLSClark: How many garage acts patterned their playing of this classic around Jeff's?
	2:23pm Joe B: ↳ McGroovey @2:22 I guess once they had a few hits, stretching out was out the window
	2:23pm Christina Ginger: ↳ Song: "You're A Better Man Than I" by "The Yardbirds" I’ve always been partial to this song.
	👻 2:24pm medson: ↳ Joe B @2:20 Weird how that happens all of a sudden with things you've heard a million times
	2:24pm patrick321: ↳ Christina Ginger @2:23 I second that emotion, Christine.
	👻 2:24pm Candy-O'67: Big night here in Austin. Schizophonics are playing at Hotel Vegas and Jonathan Toubin is DJ'g at 13th Floor! Gonna do both!😁. JR HouTex is coming for Schizophonics, too!
	2:24pm Joe B: ↳ Christina Ginger @2:23 amazing how many 60s covers there are of this song for it not being a big hit
	👻 2:24pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Song: "You're A Better Man Than I" by "The Yardbirds" Super tune
	2:24pm tim from washington: ↳ Joe B @2:20 Ha! Actually I have a theory that Jack White is a modern day Eric Clapton (but not as despicable). Both started their careers on a high note, both were auxillary members of other bands but their solo careers have diminishing returns.
	2:25pm Joe B: ↳ Candy-O'67 @2:24 damn wish i was there!
	2:25pm patrick321: ↳ patrick321 @2:24 Christina, sorry.
	👻 2:25pm Candy-O'67: ↳ Joe B @2:25 Me, too, Joe!
	2:25pm tim from washington: ↳ Candy-O'67 @2:24 Sounds fun!
	2:26pm patrick321: ↳ Candy-O'67 @2:24 Jonathan Toubin does a fun show!
	👻 2:26pm Candy-O'67: ↳ tim from washington @2:25 It will be! Always love seeing Schizophonics! I know them from living in CA, too. Always a great show and fun hang!
	2:27pm Chili MacPagoda: My nine year old niece decided that these guys “might be a little better than Taylor Swift, but just a little.” A tiny ray of hope for the future…
	2:27pm Christina Ginger: ↳ Joe B @2:24 I think the minor key and ability to make it a little snarly really lent itself, but then it also has the ability to go the folk route because of the lyrics… ah, versatility.
	👻 2:27pm MOM WHIG: Joe - these are all Still so Amazing to me thanks
	2:27pm McGroovey: ↳ Song: "You're A Better Man Than I" by "The Yardbirds" I know the New Colony Six version of this the best, because I got a (Sundazed?) NC6 CD in the '90s. I haven't listened to it in ages. I should pull it out.
	👻 2:28pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Chili MacPagoda @2:27 These last two are the best
	👻 2:29pm WLSClark: ↳ McGroovey @2:27 So good, they put it on BOTH first 2 LPs diff versions!
	👻 2:29pm Joel: Knew this would be the place to be. Thanks for doing this Joe
	👻 2:29pm Frank In Queens: ↳ McGroovey @2:22 The guitarists usually get all the attention, but the rest of the band were also stellar musicians; and versatile. And Relf was a fantastic singer and harmonica player.
	👻 2:29pm MOM WHIG: ↳ WLSClark @2:29 Yes so good
	2:30pm Joe B: ↳ Joel @2:29 thanks for being here joel!
	2:30pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: I was at the Jeff Beck career retrospective at Royal Festival Hall in 2002. There was a 20 minute Yardbirds segment with Beck, The White Stripes and Little Jack Lawrence on bass that was very cool. There is footage on YouTube (of course).
	👻 2:30pm WLSClark: ↳ Song: "The Nazz Are Blue" by "The Yardbirds" Hmm, this never influenced anyone, did it? TR & Co!
	👻 2:30pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Joel @2:29 glad you made it here
	2:30pm Chili MacPagoda: ↳ MOM WHIG @2:28 Shapes is a bit of a mind blower, they sound about five years ahead of the pack. And this sustained note in Nazz manages to somehow sound evil and psychedelic. Masterful stuff
	2:31pm Joe B: ↳ Todd-o-phonic Todd @2:30 that must have been great!
	👻 2:31pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Chili MacPagoda @2:30 I just played some of these last nite too. They are magic still
	👻 2:31pm Frank In Queens: ↳ Todd-o-phonic Todd @2:30 I was watching clips from that the other night. Great stuff.
	2:32pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: ↳ tim from washington @2:11 You are welcome, my friend.
	2:33pm tim from washington: ↳ Song: "Evil Hearted You" by "The Yardbirds" Another favorite!
	2:34pm Christina Ginger: ↳ tim from washington @2:33 Yes!
	2:35pm tim from washington: I forgot which Yardbirds went on to folkie kinda prog Renaissance? I always that it was an interesting direction to go in instead of the way most of their peers went.
	2:35pm Chili MacPagoda: ↳ Song: "Stroll On" by "The Yardbirds" One of my favorite film scenes ever.
	2:36pm Joe B: ↳ tim from washington @2:35 relf and mccarty
	👻 2:37pm Frank In Queens: ↳ Joe B @2:36 And then Relf went onto Armageddon.
	👻 2:37pm WLSClark: Just read that Zaentz can no longer dance as musch as he did. After all these years, John Fogerty has gotten publishing for most of his song catalog!
	2:38pm tim from washington: ↳ Chili MacPagoda @2:35 Yeah! The first time I saw that I nearly stood up and started yelling in my living room.
	2:38pm Atomic Spork: Ya ya ya. Ya ya ya. Ya ya ya. Ya ya ya. Ya YA ya ya ya ya.
	2:39pm Joe B: ↳ WLSClark @2:37 sadly after saul raked in gazillions of dollars
	2:39pm McGroovey: ↳ Song: "Stroll On" by "The Yardbirds" I was just watching the Yardbirds cameo in The Blow Up last night. I wished it was longer. But this song is vicious. Not viscous. Well, maybe a little viscous. But not in a bad way. But certainly vicious.
	2:39pm Zipperhead7: Wow! you are doing da Boids credit this afternoon. In 1966 they played my hometown of Bartlesville Oklahoma as part of a Dick Clark tour. Jimmy and Jeff! That same day they played Tulsa and Cherryvale, Kansas. No wonder Beck split shortly thereafter. I can only imagine what it must have been like to be an English longhair in those 'Murcan backwaters in 1966
	👻 2:39pm MikeG: Get your Ya Ya Ya Ya Ya Ya Ya Ya Ya's out!
	2:41pm Chili MacPagoda: ↳ tim from washington @2:38 Each time I see it I think, maaaan wish I was there.
	2:41pm McGroovey: ↳ Frank In Queens @2:29 I love the Armageddon album. I had to special-order it in the early eighties to get myself a copy. It still lurked in distributors' back stock at the time, apparently. It was in the catalog, but not stocked by stores
	👻 2:42pm WLSClark: ↳ Zipperhead7 @2:39 Hey watch it Okie, Im a Kansan! haha That first tour started in OKC for ONE reason: it was the city where For Your Love went to #1. We aint so stupid in midwest.
	2:43pm Chili MacPagoda: There’s a hilarious anecdote Chris Dreja told about Sam Phillips on how he should play his instrument. Worth looking up haha
	👻 2:43pm medson: Great tribute Joe.
	👻 2:45pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Song: "Heart Full Of Soul" by "The Yardbirds" The BEST EVer
	2:45pm Zipperhead7: YES re: Shapes of Things. Such an avant-garde imagination (the break played on one string!!!) with that choir of feedback behind it and final brain-freezing treble blast. And I'll bet he made it up largely off the cuff
	2:45pm McGroovey: ↳ Song: "Heart Full Of Soul" by "The Yardbirds" As great a song as this is, I think it was the kind of thing that frustrated Beck: he had to play that same signature lick every time on this song, and the little solo is the same on this BBC version as on the single.
	2:45pm tim from washington: My favorite moment seeing Sonic Youth was Thurston talking to someone near the stage. “Nice shirt, man! Oh. Never mind. I thought you were wearing a Yardbirds shirt”
	2:47pm McGroovey: ↳ Zipperhead7 @2:45 But the Beck solo version on Truth is more paint-melting.
	2:47pm Joe B: having a rave up with the mccoys
	2:48pm tim from washington: ↳ Joe B @2:47 Ha!
	👻 2:48pm Joel: Just watching a video of a Beck performance at Ronnie Scotts and who is in the audience but Jimmie Page having a grand time
	👻 2:49pm WLSClark: Cool hearing all these live versions--they could play so well to record when they wanted--or when they didn't too!
	2:50pm Mike Sin: Been listening but only now have been able to comment because of work -- enjoying this tribute immensely!
	2:50pm Zipperhead7: ↳ McGroovey @2:47 Here's a great show from Fillmore West, 12/7/68. Listen to the one note at 34:49 that slides into screaming feedback. A portal into psychotic delirium! The whole show is worth a listen, even if it’s a cruddy audience recording. Try not to smile when he tears into the “Beverly Hillbillies” theme during the show: www.youtube.com...
	2:51pm Joe B: hey Mike!
	2:51pm bigplanetnoise: Great tribute, JB…. Every cut still stuns.
	👻 2:52pm MOM WHIG: ↳ bigplanetnoise @2:51 Good Day to you
	2:52pm efd: been here pretty much since the start, this has been great so far Joe!
	2:52pm McGroovey: ↳ Song: "Smokestack Lightnin'" by "The Yardbirds" Wouldn't this have been Clapton, not Beck? I'm not an expert on the Yardbirds discography.
	👻 2:52pm WLSClark: Hi BPN! Hope your holiday (and birthday?) have been great!
	2:53pm McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @2:52 But I guess it does sound a bit more like Beck.
	2:53pm bigplanetnoise: Hi Mom! Thanks, Clark - it sure was!
	👻 2:55pm MOM WHIG: ↳ efd @2:52 good to see you
	2:55pm Mike Sin: Looking at all three of the Yardbirds' stellar guitarists, Beck has always been the most "otherworldly," as it were. What separates him is the way he used his influences to very quickly move into unexplored styles and technological directions. Unlike say, Clapton or Page, who spent a longer time harnessing and stretching direct influences and expanding "worlds," Beck was downright amazing in the way he quickly created his own new "world" of guitar playing.
	2:55pm Joe B: ↳ bigplanetnoise @2:51 thanks for being here bpn!
	2:55pm Joe B: ↳ efd @2:52 thanks efd!
	2:56pm tim from washington: Joe - are you just sticking with the Yardbirds today?
	2:56pm Joe B: ↳ McGroovey @2:52 this is beck on this version. clapton did one bbc session with them, and it apparently has not survived
	2:57pm Zipperhead7: ↳ Mike Sin @2:55 Well said! Beck's playng at this time was peerless
	2:57pm tim from washington: efd! You’re show on Wednesday was top notch radio! You nailed the post!
	2:57pm Joe B: ↳ McGroovey @2:53 listed as december 1965, so no way it would be clapton
	2:58pm Joe B: ↳ Mike Sin @2:55 well said mike!
	2:58pm Joe B: ↳ tim from washington @2:56 no!
	2:58pm Mike Sin: As it was the 1960s, time seems stretched and "longer"... How long was Beck in the Yardbirds? 18,19 months? And yet look what went down in that blink.
	2:59pm Chili MacPagoda: ↳ Mike Sin @2:55 Spot on. I always thought of Beck being more akin to Hendrix than the other two. Drawing on a wide array of influences - maybe hearing some Hawaiian slack key guitar and thinking, that’s good how can I adapt that? Seemed to embrace the weird in their influences and practiced constantly. Like coming up with a new language.
	2:59pm efd: ↳ tim from washington @2:57 thanks tim!
	3:00pm Joe B: guess they felt a little guilty about clipping all these tunes so they played the originals live?
	👻 3:00pm WLSClark: ↳ Joe B @2:57 ANYONE that wants all the Beck info, that book "Jeff's Book" is incredible day to day listings of everything! I cant believe it was even made.
	3:00pm ModnikBri: Out of all the Yardbirds guitarist Beck was my favorite. So sad. When I was little, My mom took out a video of Jeff Beck and I called him John Rock
	👻 3:01pm WLSClark: Hi Bri, Mike sin, efd
	👻 3:02pm WLSClark: all of these YBirds in ONE HOUR! Joe, "you're gonna need a bigger YARD!"
	👻 3:02pm MOM WHIG: ↳ ModnikBri @3:00 hi there
	3:02pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...just haven't even been able to yet with Beck ...so appreciate the help here. We'll see what happens when I can touch my gittar again.
	👻 3:02pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:02 Afternoon to you
	3:02pm ModnikBri: ↳ MOM WHIG @3:02 Hey Mom Whig!
	3:02pm ModnikBri: ↳ WLSClark @3:01 Hey!
	3:03pm ModnikBri: The owl was playing a lot of Keith’s solo stuff last night
	3:03pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: ↳ McGroovey @2:45 He blew the solo on Shindig!
	👻 3:04pm Frank In Queens: ↳ Mike Sin @2:55 He was the best player of his generation. Certainly among the Brits anyway.
	3:04pm Mike Sin: ↳ Chili MacPagoda @2:59 Yes, with Clapton, his talent is enormous of course, but it feels like he spent a lot more time just digging deeper and expanding his Albert King infatuation. But, with something like "Heart Full of Soul," I can't imagine anyone else but Jeff Beck at the time processing the sitar in his fingers.
	3:05pm tim from washington: Is it true That Beck didn’t tune, he just bent the strings in tune while playing?
	3:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I always wanted to be JeffBeck in the yARdbiRdS - & I always will. There's no other way to parse it. As Vernon Reid posted - every Gittar Player associated with Rawk Music is fucked up right now. That's what happened today.
	3:05pm McGroovey: ↳ Todd-o-phonic Todd @3:03 "I meant to do that!' Sometimes, "mistakes" end up being the only opportunity for improvisation.
	3:05pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: It's hilarious that Clapton left The Yardbirds because of "pop crap" and went on to record some of the worst and most banal "pop crap" ever.
	3:06pm Joe B: ↳ Todd-o-phonic Todd @3:05 spot on!
	👻 3:06pm Frank In Queens: ↳ Todd-o-phonic Todd @3:05 Ah, to be young and idealistic....
	3:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Mike Sin @3:04 Hendrix came to England & devastated the landscape so - what Beck accomplished in the yARdbiRdS before that is too little recognized by the mainstream.
	3:06pm Zipperhead7: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:05 Interesting how the guitar solo has been replaced by the "guest rap" in contemporary pop
	3:06pm McGroovey: ↳ Todd-o-phonic Todd @3:05 People make dumb mistaches
	3:07pm Christina Ginger: ↳ Todd-o-phonic Todd @3:05 Irony tends to be lost on egos.
	3:07pm patrick321: ↳ Mike Sin @2:55 Mike take a look at Karl Ward's comment near the beginning of the show about 2:10
	👻 3:07pm WLSClark: ↳ Todd-o-phonic Todd @3:05 Yeah, look at what Beck was still doing while Clapton languished for nearly 40 years in whatever he was in......
	👻 3:07pm Karl Ward: ↳ patrick321 @3:07 Uh oh am I in trouble?
	3:08pm tim from washington: ↳ Christina Ginger @3:07 Ooh! Can I borrow that quote? Spot on!
	3:08pm Zipperhead7: Joe, are you sitting in a cathedral?
	3:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Todd-o-phonic Todd @3:05 Not unsusal to like one period of an Artist more than another - but have ambiguity for Clpaton like no other. I still wanna be in Cream & I can't lie. It seems that Clapton shouldn't be left Solo essentially. :D
	👻 3:09pm Frank In Queens: Clapton's solo on "I Ain't Got You" is pretty searing all while staying with in the parameters of "blues".
	3:09pm Mike Sin: ↳ Todd-o-phonic Todd @3:05 Dunno. I can't hold him to his "teenage" mind. After hearing Clapton's work in the Bluesbreakers and Cream, I understand exactly why he left the Yardbirds. Can't comment on where his mind went post-heroin oblivion... That said, yes, Beck even in the 21st century was walking his very specific path.
	3:09pm tim from washington: ↳ Todd-o-phonic Todd @3:05 What RSO records aren’t a trademark of musical integrity?
	👻 3:10pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: Joe, somewhere in my house I have an autographed photo of Lord Sutch at a record store in downtown Toms River I gotta look for it.
	3:11pm Christina Ginger: ↳ tim from washington @3:08 You may absolutely borrow it.
	3:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ WLSClark @3:07 ...while I wanna be Beck in the yARdbiRdS - he then partly invented Heavy ...& then a whole other altitude of Virtuosity with really his own variety of Fusion - totally successfully imho ...& still more really than I've ever been able to process as a Gittar Diddler. The One & the Only. East Bay Ray actually put it well: He gave people Chaos & Beauty @ the same time.
	3:11pm Joe B: ↳ Jeff formerly from Rahway @3:10 wow never made it to a record store in toms river. other than buying Snap by the Jam at Caldor on rt 37!
	3:11pm McGroovey: ↳ Song: "Come Back Baby" by "Screaming "Lord" Sutch" This is definitely vicious and viscous
	3:11pm tim from washington: I’d rather have Beck babysit my kids than Clapton.
	3:12pm Joe B: ↳ tim from washington @3:11 his closed window policy
	3:12pm patrick321: ↳ Karl Ward @3:07 No it's a good story and seemed in line with what Mike was stalking about. I actually shared it with another friend of mine.
	3:12pm tim from washington: ↳ Song: "Come Back Baby" by "Screaming "Lord" Sutch" Nuts!!!
	👻 3:12pm Frank In Queens: ↳ Song: "The Dog Presides" by "Paul Jones" Great one!
	3:12pm tim from washington: ↳ Joe B @3:12 Ha!
	3:13pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: ↳ tim from washington @3:11 Don't leave him around your wife either.
	3:13pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: My buddy Paul Jones!
	3:13pm Alvy Singer: ↳ Song: "The Dog Presides" by "Paul Jones" What a completely bizarre record with such a stellar line up. Thanks for this!
	👻 3:14pm Joel: Wow, this is ripping..
	3:14pm tim from washington: ↳ Todd-o-phonic Todd @3:13 Ha! Yeah, then I’d get my face rubbed in it with a double LP!
	3:15pm David Watts: great show Joe! I love this song.
	3:15pm McGroovey: ↳ Song: "The Dog Presides" by "Paul Jones" Great song. Never heard it before. Google says Paul McCartney is on drums.
	3:15pm Chili MacPagoda: ↳ Song: "I Can't Make Your Way" by "The Yardbirds" Right now, this my favorite Yardbirds track. The brief solo midway is just too perfect
	3:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Where Beck was coming from to alloy equal parts Inventiveness, Virtuosity & Expression - without violating any of them in favor of the other ...& occasionally even really good Taste for a Shredder ...Hendrix of course serves as an infallible North Star to navigate by ...but so does JeffBeck, & in his own way. Watching a video of the JB Group doing Lay Lady Lay ...nothing he does is the standard 'gittar solo'. Just ...open-mouthed over it.
	3:17pm McGroovey: ↳ Song: "The Dog Presides" by "Paul Jones" "For Beck, who reportedly earned a week’s rent from ‘The Dog Presides’, there was only one regret: “Well, all I remember [about it] was hoping Paul McCartney would sing“."
	3:17pm Woo: Hey Joe and all
	3:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Chili MacPagoda @3:15 & on some of the 'Roger' album he's way back in the mix ...like they didn't know what this was yet...
	3:18pm Joe B: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:17 on the stereo. you have to get the mono version
	3:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: & Beck also as a figure - the Boho Gittar Wizard charting his own path with an attitude ...eventually not even really caring about Records @ all. Just let him loose to Play. He'll be missed as a personality too. (If I sometimes think as a Classic Rawker that SpinalTap made a few notes...)
	3:20pm Chili MacPagoda: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:17 Exactly. Funny, Rev, I was just wondering about the mix on that lp yesterday. Hearing “Turn To Earth” and thinking, why is JB mixed so far in the background? Because the sounds he’s coaxing out of his Fender are indeed otherworldly. Perhaps he terrified the old studio engineer with its eldritch magic.
	3:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Joe B @3:18 Interesting.
	👻 3:22pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Woo @3:17 good to see you
	3:23pm McGroovey: ↳ Song: "Happenings Ten Years Time Ago" by "The Yardbirds" The Todd Rundgren version of this is great. Though it's pretty much a note-for-note redo. But the recording sounds like 1976.
	3:23pm Zipperhead7: Check out the Yardbirds ad for Great Shakes: www.youtube.com... Right up there with "Rice Krispies" by the Stones, "White Levis" byJefferson Airplane and "Camaro" by Quicksilver Messenger Service
	3:23pm Woo: ↳ MOM WHIG @3:22 You too MOM WHIG. I was taking a mid-day nap
	3:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: That he was also a HotRod enthusiast is the perfect analogy. Take an old style classic & mod it out - yourself - to your own unique specifications. The HanSolo of RawkVirtuosity.
	👻 3:24pm WLSClark: Happenings 10 years ago is 50 years ahead of its time
	👻 3:24pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Woo @3:23 Still waiting for mine
	3:25pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: ↳ McGroovey @3:15 Everything you'd want to know about "The Dog Presides" and more: www.wfmu.org...
	👻 3:25pm WLSClark: ↳ Zipperhead7 @3:23 White Levis is just so absurdly beautiful
	3:27pm McGroovey: ↳ Zipperhead7 @2:50 I want to listen to this, but not until the show is over. But judging by your description, I think I may have this, downloaded through BitTorrent
	👻 3:28pm WLSClark: If my Gregorian Chant class would have been this good, I might have finished college. Well, maybe not......
	3:28pm Alvy Singer: ↳ Zipperhead7 @3:23 Falstaff Beer by Cream. www.youtube.com...
	3:29pm McGroovey: ↳ Todd-o-phonic Todd @3:25 Ooh. And I was actually listening, because I commented on Paul's drumming then also. I've forgotten more than I'll ever know.
	3:29pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Turn Into Earth" by "The Yardbirds" I forgot the Yardbirds did another Gregorian chant besides "Still I'm Sad". Did those inspire the Stooges' "We Will Fall"?
	3:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Turn Into Earth" by "The Yardbirds" 'Roger the Engineer' 1966 like of course 'Revolver' - an interesting compare & contrast.
	3:31pm McGroovey: I think my copy of the Roger the Engineer CD has two tracks with Beck and Page. I can't recall what the second one was.
	3:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ David Shortell @3:29 One would presume ! Stooges' first Produced by JohnCale of course. They showed up in NYC with not even enuff songs yet...
	3:32pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Happenings Ten Years Time Ago" by "The Yardbirds" I believe this and its B-side "Psycho Daisies" were indeed the only songs by the group to feature both Beck and Page, Joe.
	3:33pm ModnikBri: Yess! My favorite version of Shapes!
	3:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ McGroovey @3:31 ...there's 'Stroll On' in the BlowUp film of course with Beck & Page. 'Beck's Bolero' had Page, Moon, JohnPaulJones.
	3:35pm ModnikBri: I was lucky to have been introduced to Jeff Beck and This era of Rod Stewart at such a young age!!
	3:35pm David Shortell: ↳ McGroovey @3:31 Those CD bonus tracks are the songs I referred to in my last post, McG.
	👻 3:36pm Frank In Queens: ↳ Song: "Let Me Love You" by "Jeff Beck Group" Aw yeah!
	3:37pm Alvy Singer: ↳ Song: "Shapes of Things" by "Jeff Beck Group" Mick Waller drums on all the tracks except Beck's Bolero, which is drummed by none other than Keith Moon. Interestingly enough, Waller and Moon have very similar styles.
	👻 3:37pm WLSClark: I just read Macca's comments on Jeff's death, but not seen what Rod said. Anyone hear what he had to say?
	3:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Shapes of Things" by "Jeff Beck Group" Recognize how much JBGroup were a precedent to Zep & such. Still Produced by MickieMost tho & not honestly my favorite Beck ? Maybe hard to put myself in the 1968 context actually...I wouldn't be without it - but a struggle to find himself for some time I think.
	3:37pm tim from washington: ↳ ModnikBri @3:35 Wow! That’s great! I didn’t catch on to how great Rod Stewart was until I was in my 30s.
	3:37pm ModnikBri: ↳ WLSClark @3:37 He said we lost a talent, or something like that, I forget
	3:38pm ModnikBri: ↳ tim from washington @3:37 I’m just now discovering Rod’s mod phase!
	3:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Let Me Love You" by "Jeff Beck Group" Hella fun really ...like Zep without the aftertaste...
	👻 3:39pm Frank In Queens: ↳ tim from washington @3:37 Me too. It took his work with Jeff Beck to get me to not completely write him off.
	👻 3:39pm Frank In Queens: ↳ Frank In Queens @3:39 Well, maybe late 20s.
	3:39pm McGroovey: ↳ Alvy Singer @3:37 Wikipedia says: Clem Cattini – drums on "Hi Ho Silver Lining" Aynsley Dunbar – drums on "Tallyman" and "Rock My Plimsoul (single version)" (The last one is a CD bonus track)
	3:40pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Psycho Daisies" by "The Yardbirds" The Mary Hughes mentioned in the last verse was Jeff's girlfriend, an "actor" in American International beach pictures. imdb.com...
	3:40pm McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @3:39 Oh. So is Tallyman, I guess.
	👻 3:40pm WLSClark: ↳ ModnikBri @3:37 Good that he acknowledged him in some way, at least. Thanks, Bri
	👻 3:40pm Frank In Queens: And man, Ronnie Wood certainly holds his own on bass on this stuff.
	3:41pm tim from washington: The Faces have become on of my favorites in the past 10-15 years.
	3:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Informative doc on 60s Beck - if lotsa talking heads type production : www.youtube.com...
	3:42pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ tim from washington @3:41 Deserve some of that love the Stones get, maybe ?
	👻 3:42pm WLSClark: I could see a Jeff Beck Group/Faces w/Rod: "From Plynth to around the Plynth!"
	3:42pm Chili MacPagoda: ↳ Frank In Queens @3:40 Nonstop gigging with The Birds & Creation, Ronnie became a MONSTER on the bass. Was just listening to his parts on these tracks, so dope.
	3:42pm Zipperhead7: ↳ Frank In Queens @3:40 Oh god yes! His outtro on "Spanish Boots" is a revelation
	3:43pm Joe B: ↳ WLSClark @3:42 ha!
	👻 3:44pm MOM WHIG: Chili - did the dancers get tired?
	3:45pm ModnikBri: ↳ WLSClark @3:40 Of course!
	3:45pm Chili MacPagoda: ↳ MOM WHIG @3:44 Snack time. I have them in front of the tv watching Julia Child on Youtube. They’re fascinated with her.
	3:45pm Alvy Singer: ↳ Song: "Spanish Boots" by "Jeff Beck Group" Ron Wood using a late 60's Fender Tele bass with Rotosounds and a pick played through a cranked Marshall Major.
	👻 3:45pm Karl Ward: ↳ Song: "Spanish Boots" by "Jeff Beck Group" Hey I heard that crossfade on the master, they didn't sneak it by me
	👻 3:46pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Chili MacPagoda @3:45 Hopefully not mocking her ACCENT! HA HA
	👻 3:46pm Karl Ward: Also, Hi MOM
	3:46pm McGroovey: ↳ Karl Ward @3:45 Eagle ears!
	3:46pm Zipperhead7: c'est la merde, as they say in France. God this raging bass
	3:46pm tim from washington: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:42 Ha! My back door into the Faces was “Wow! These are the best Stones songs they ever made”. Then I realized that they were just the best songs!
	3:46pm David Shortell: WFMU decal illustrator Ward Sutton paid tribute to Jeff: mobile.twitter.com...
	3:49pm patrick321: ↳ WLSClark @3:40 Rod's 2 tweets at this link. twitter.com...
	3:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ David Shortell @3:46 :D ...wish Becks Hansen & Jeff had worked together. They easily could've.
	3:49pm McGroovey: I don't suppose you'll have time to get to the fusiony stuff. I know maybe we're not supposed to admit we liked that stuff, but I do, and I ain't afraid to admit it.
	👻 3:50pm WLSClark: ↳ David Shortell @3:46 I could surer believe that "accidental sales" crap from some label guru
	👻 3:51pm Karl Ward: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:49 Beck Hansen, Jeff Beck, with Walter Becker producing. I would call the supergroup Beck, Becker, and Beckest.
	👻 3:51pm WLSClark: ↳ patrick321 @3:49 Thanks, Patrick. Glad he made such a nice statement!
	3:51pm Zipperhead7: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:49 that would have been supercool
	3:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ McGroovey @3:49 Think Wired & BlowByBlow were more relevant than this RodStewart period. Groovy as it is.
	3:52pm Chop Scott: Thanks Joe--fantastic tribute.
	3:52pm David Shortell: I'm amazed that there seems to be no performance film footage of the "Truth" group. At least Ron Wood's previous group, the Birds, appeared in "The Deadly Bees".
	👻 3:52pm MOM WHIG: Joe - You've Done An AMAZING tribute here today - We can never forget him.
	👻 3:52pm WLSClark: ↳ Karl Ward @3:51 OR just "Bequest"???
	3:53pm Woo: Thanks Joe! Great!
	👻 3:53pm Joel: Thanks again Joe for an amazing show. You too are in a class of your own !!!
	3:53pm patrick321: All of this and you kept it all in the 60s, Joe. Thanks for a great 2 hours distracting me from work! Have a good weekend all
	3:53pm Joe B: ↳ MOM WHIG @3:52 thanks Mom!
	3:53pm Alvy Singer: Great stuff today Joe. Thank you.
	3:53pm ModnikBri: This song will forever remind me of Frank from now on!
	👻 3:53pm medson: Thanks Joe, great trip as always
	👻 3:53pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Woo @3:53 Now my Siesta time
	👻 3:53pm WLSClark: GREAT show and great ending song, Joe!
	3:53pm Joe B: thanks everyone! appreciate it!
	👻 3:53pm Karl Ward: ↳ WLSClark @3:52 Oh their album could be "Who's Becker? Who's Beckest?"
	3:53pm Woo: ↳ MOM WHIG @3:53 Safe and restful sleep MOM WHIG!
	3:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Beck's Bolero" by "Jeff Beck Group" Effortless slide player. Just gobsmacking.
	👻 3:54pm WLSClark: ↳ patrick321 @3:53 Possibly the BEST thing about it!
	👻 3:54pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Woo @3:53 Thanks see you later then
	👻 3:54pm Frank In Queens: ↳ McGroovey @3:49 That stuff is fantastic, and a prime example of what a monstrous player he was. I'll say it again, best of his generation of countrymen.
	3:55pm McGroovey: Great show, Joe!
	3:55pm Joe B: ↳ Frank In Queens @3:54 no argument here
	3:55pm tim from washington: Thanks Joe! It’s great to hear you 2 times a week.
	3:55pm ModnikBri: ↳ Frank In Queens @3:54 I’d have to agree!
	3:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Frank In Queens @3:54 His own corner of Fusion - as in everything.
	3:56pm Joe B: guess there was time for 2 more
	3:56pm Zipperhead7: thankyouthankyouthankyou Joe! A most excellent tribute
	👻 3:56pm WLSClark: ↳ Karl Ward @3:53 OR "I never lived in a Box of Frogs"
	👻 3:56pm Frank In Queens: ↳ Joe B @3:55 There's a bit of room for debate on this, but not much. Great show today!
	3:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Frank In Queens @3:54 Absolutely.
	3:57pm Mike Sin: All right! Nice one, JB!
	👻 3:57pm Candy-O'67: Thx so much, Joe! Killer tribute show to the one and only Jeff Beck!🙌❤️
	3:57pm Jessie: Great show Joe! Thanks!!
	3:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Frank In Queens @3:56 Clapton & Green in Blues - but when Clapton got an Award for Best Overall Guitarist - he said - I think you meant this for Jeff.
	👻 3:58pm Frank In Queens: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:57 And maybe McLaughlin for jazz, but those players are far more niche than Beck.
	3:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Frank In Queens @3:58 Word.
	3:59pm Zipperhead7: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @3:57 Ah,revrab -- nice to see you're a Peter Green fan. I did a proposal for Bloomsbury's 33 1/3 series on Green/Mac and waiting to hear back
