    I have the CD, "live at Ronnie Scott's", and I've seen the video. Just unbelievable musicianship both on his part and the rest of the band. Vinnie Colaiuta - holy crap! what a monster. Tal Winkenfeld - not only is she a great bass player, but danged cute too! Don't know who plays keys, but the band with all the guest singers just tear it up.

    One of my favorite albums of his is "Truth" from 1968. Rod Stewart on vocals before he went solo and became famous, Ron Wood on bass, and the late great underappreciated Micky Waller on drums. With guest appearance by Keith Moon on tympani on one cut. Due to contractual conflicts he couldn't by credited by his name, so he was listed as You Know Who.

    69 years old yesterday.

    I found a redbook cd of Truth that has the original cuts + ones that were not on the US release + alternate takes. Kind of fun to hear what he thought should be on the album and what shouldn't.

    Dromunds, saw Jeff Beck live here in downtown Houston back in the late 1990's, some idiot out in the audience had brought his Jeff Beck issue Fender Strat with him and kept waving around over his head all through the concert, guess he thought Jeff was going to sign it for him,lol.
