  Jeff Beck - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Beck was born Geoffrey Arnold Beck in Wallington.
Beck was one of the first electric guitarists in the 1960s to experiment with electronic distortion (most notably in the Yardbirds 1966 album, Roger The Engineer), redefining the sound and role of the electric guitar in rock music and anticipating what Jimi Hendrix shortly thereafter took further.
Beck's work with the Yardbirds and the Jeff Beck Group's 1968 album Truth were seminal influences on heavy metal music, which emerged in full force in the early 1970s.

 Jeff Beck
Beck couldn't write a note, of course - he was just a guitar player, after all, so the few elements of originality here are mostly credited to Stewart and Wood, and they don't contribute that much, preferring to exploit well-used blues standards.
Jeff doesn't want to concede the laurel wreath to Roderick, either, and delivers some unusually scorching solos, interspersed with pools of dirty distortion, and the whole number rolls on with almost as much energy as a prime Who live jam.
On 'Psycho Sam', Beck sounds like he's not really playing his instrument but plugging it through a computer; 'Space For The Papa' is a deadly long (eight minutes), boring, monotonous electronic jam with the guitar often sticking to the background, and the main emphasis on a catchy, but rather banal synth riff.

The Jimmy Page penned "Beck's Bolero" is great, but was recorded during a different session, with members of Led Zeppelin and the Who, but lacks some of the fire that would be indicative of these bands at their peak.

 Jeff Beck Reviews
Beck's bad boy spent the next several years playing blues-rock (the Jeff Beck Group with Rod Stewart), soul-rock (the second edition of that band), and leading a power trio.
While Beck's playing is less in-your-face than his previous efforts, all the fierce attack, thick tone, microtonal bends, distortion, feedback, vibrato, sustain, sonic hoodoo, and rhythmic and harmonic creativity that the man's fans have come to know and love can be heard here.
Beck, drummer Narada Michael Walden, and producer George Martin here embark on a potent jazz-rock journey, making stops at the ferocious "Led Boots," the thumb-popping R&B of "Come Dancing," and the hooky "Blue Wind" (written by former Mahavishnu synth player Jan Hammer).

`truth is Jeff Becks first solo album after leaving that great breeding ground of Rock guitarists, The Yardbirds, where he served after Eric Clapton left and before Jimmy Paige arrived.
The most interesting other selections are `Becks Bolero which was stolen the next year by King Crimson on `Lizard and the opener on side 2, their version of the traditional `Greensleeves.
Becks tone is spot on in almost every song and his playing is superb, but not overdone.

Beck’s solo acoustic rendition of “Greensleeves”; also portends folkish excursions by Page that would soon crop up on nearly every Zep record.
The psychedelic instrumental “Beck’s Bolero” (by Jimmy Page, as a matter of fact) remains a delight, as does “Ol’ Man River,” with an uncredited Keith Moon on timpani.
But in terms of how Beck uses the guitar to lead a band, there’s a lot of continuity between these and future efforts.

The CD I have does not have an original date of release for the album, but I recall it was somewhere around 1969, which is when I bought the LP.
Led Zeppelin is usually mentioned because Jimmy Page became Beck's rival for years because he also used "You Shook Me" with Led Zeppelin, even though it's different.
However, they missed out on playing Woodstock, Rod Stewart moved on to his own career as well as with the Faces, and Led Zeppelin's legacy overshadowed these albums for the most part, with the exception of Jeff Beck fans who keep trying to point these out.
