Jeff Beck - Truth & Beck-Ola 1991 [MP3 @ 320] (oan)

http://bayimg.com/image/halhiaabn.jpg With the teaming up of Jeff Beck on lead guitar, Rod Stewart on vocals, Ronnie Wood on bass and Tony Newman on drums to form the first Jeff Beck Group, the world witnessed the birth of a new genre in music: heavy metal. With Beck's blistering blues riffs and Stewarts gravelly hobo voice, this is where the SuperGroups first started. Originally issued as two seperate albums, Truth and Beckola are brought together here on one CD, and this is a must for any serious rock music fan. Admittedly, the sound lacks the dynamism and performance of, say Led Zepplin, but easily makes up for this in the musicianship, vocals and, not least, the songs. The first album to be released, Truth, features some classic blues rock songs such as I ain't Superstitious and Rock My Plimsoul, whilst at the same time effortlessly slipping into the more soulful Greensleeves and Ol' Man River. Sound dymanics and contrast are an important and oft overlooked ingrediant in the best of heavy rock. The arrangements, here, however, are full of light and dark corners and shade. This is a classic album which redefined rock music in the mid/late sixties. Beckola, on the other hand, goes one step further and offers something genuinely innovative and as such can be viewed as a landmark album from 1969. Nicky Hopkins joined the group on keyboards and Rod Stewart was at his zenith as a blues singer and Jeff Beck was rapidly developing into a serious heavy blues guitarist. Whatever music Beck had made before was only leading up to this beathtaking album. The accent, as the sleeve notes explain, is on heavy music. And it doesn't come any heavier than this. Plynth, Hangman's Knee and Rice Pudding are all intelligently arranged songs, avoiding the crash bang wallop school of heavy rock, prefering instead an air of control and suspense. Historically important as these two albums are, they are still as exciting and fresh as the day they were released 1. (03:21) - Shapes of things 2. (04:45) - Let me love you 3.
