Steve Morse pays tribute to Jeff beck

A Jeff Beck cover is a tall order. 

Morse is in the small company of players who can pull it off.

I agree...

@mitchagain 

Thanks for the recommendation. I'll check it out. 

 

 

 

 

Class playing tribute to class. This is one of the reasons music touches all cultures.

Steve Morse is indeed a class act.

Musician friends of mine in Tampa, who own an automobile body repair shop, traded Steve to repair a vehicle of his in the aughts (?).

The price of repair was that Steve come and jam with them in their rehearsal space.....and he came down and played!

The solo album High Tension Wires was a favorite of mine that I may have to dust off.....

Wow !  They must be pretty hot players. I can't imagine placing myself in that situation. 

 

The thing is....they were competent players but weren't in bands and the rehearsal space was in the back of one of the guy's houses.

He lived in middle Florida, Ocala I think, at the time so he had to drive down to Tampa to drop off the truck.

It was a learning situation for them and they were completely blown away that Steve actually agreed to do it.......of course, he got his truck repaired for free and they had the music experience of their lives.
