Updated Info Please Update Your Info Text With Festival Hall Instead Of Activity Center

Even though the title says this is a "FM broadcast" it is actually a soundboard recording. The audience noise is really low in the mix which is why I believe this to be so. That being said this is a nice sounding recording. I have another version of this show which has terrible noise problems. This one is enjoyable throughout.

JustDave's Notes:
I ripped the waves with DVD Audio Extractor. I then used Goldwave to raise the volume a bit and add a fade in and fade out at the beginning and end. No EQ or noise reduction used, no remastering done. The DVD had lossy audio so I encoded the waves to MP3 320kbps using Trader's Little Helper.

I shed a tear when I heard Jeff Beck died. He passed the day of my cancer surgery. I found out when I got home from hospital. It gutted me.

The Jeff Beck Group was one of the first bands my Aunt Red introduced me too. She gave me an 8-track tape that had both Truth & Beck-Ola on it. On a scale of 1 to 10 I would rate those 2 albums as an 11 in how much they impacted my musical taste. Jeff Beck Group MKI, Deep Purple MKI & MKII, Black Sabbath (w/ Ozzy), & MC5 where always next to my stereo as well as The Who Live At Leeds, and Alice Cooper Killer. All the rest of my collection would be in my cabinet.

I had a friend come to visit and said something like "Wow what a nice music collection". I replied in a cocky tone "Hey thanks, I always tell people just ask for me to play something and I most likely have it." Now this was Disco Days and he says "Rod Stewart". I pulled out my copy of Truth/Beck-Ola and put it on. When it was done he said "Tape that for me". I used to tell my 1980s Metal Head friends that Rod Stewart played a big part in the development of Heavy Metal. They would laugh or yell something obscene, then of course I would play them the Truth/Beck-Ola duo and would have to tape it for them.

I included the obituary that BigO had shared. I hope you enjoy the music.

Jeff Beck was a Yardbird before Jimmy Page joined the band. Jimmy Page joined on bass when Paul Samwell-Smith quit the group. Jimmy Page moved to lead guitar and for a small period of time both Beck & Page played lead for The Yardbirds before Beck left to pursue his own career.

Awesome collection from Jeff Beck's Blow By Blow Tour. You get 2 great performances, one from Detroit and one from Milwaukee, and a guest spot by John McLaughlin. Jeff uses a Talk Box, probably a  Kustom Electronics Talk Box, for the vocals on "Superstition" just like on "She's A Woman". This early Talk Box was a bag worn over the musicians shoulder. If you have ever seen a live video of Nazareth playing "Hair Of The Dog", you have seen Dan McCafferty wearing such a device. These are dry soundboard recordings with very little audience noise.

The Jeff Beck Group were just as vital to the genre of Hard Rock/Heavy Metal as Led Zeppelin,and The MC5. The Jeff Beck Group's bombastic take on Blues music became part of the blueprint for Heavy Rock music to come.

I'm not sure if Alex Ligertwood actually sings on any of these recordings. He was the original vocalist for the revamped Jeff Beck Group, and helped write the album.

Nice sounding set of outtakes from the first album by this line-up of the Jeff Beck Group. This line-up would last only 2 years and two albums. The band announced their break-up shortly after completing their second album stating "The fusion of the musical styles of the various members has been successful within the terms of individual musicians, but they didn't feel it had led to the creation of a new musical style with the strength they had originally sought." IMHO they put out 2 great LP's that are still in heavy rotation on my stereo.

from wikipedia
In early April and still signed to RAK, Jeff Beck reformed The Jeff Beck Group group with keyboardist Max Middleton, drummer Cozy Powell and bassist Clive Chaman and vocalist Alex Ligertwood. Later in April that year the new band began recording sessions at Island Studios, London. They worked on songs by Beck and focused on Situation, which had lyrics by Ligertwood. Other songs such as Morning Dew were given attention, with the help of producer Jimmy Miller, who had worked with Traffic and with The Rolling Stones. During May 1971, after a week of recording sessions, Beck left RAK and signed a new record deal with CBS. Epic, a subsidiary of CBS, was assigned to release Beck's work, and having heard the Island studio tapes were not happy with the vocals. During May, Beck started looking for a new vocalist. In late May, after hearing Bobby Tench perform with his band Gass, he employed him as vocalist for the band. Tench was given only a few weeks to write new lyrics and add his vocals to the album, before mixing resumed on tracks previously recorded by Beck and the other band members. During early July 1971 the band returned to Island Studios to finish the album and Beck took over as producer. Rough and Ready was released in UK on 25 October 1971 with the US release following during February 1972, a sixteen day promotional tour in USA followed and the album eventually reached #46 in the album charts.

On November 25, 1971 Stephen Davis wrote in Rolling Stone magazine; "A surprisingly, fine piece of work from a man who wasn't really expected to come back. Beck is back, and in pretty good shape too." Rough and Ready album review. On 25 November 1971 Roy Carr from The New Musical Express wrote, "The album falls into that trap whereby the performance far exceeds the material. Beck hasn't lost any of his fire as he rips off solo after solo with flashy confidence"

About the single "Got the feeling", Derek Johnson wrote in the New Musical Express; "An excellent disc combining a strong commercial element with an altogether more progressive approach"
