Live in Tokyo

Jeff Beck

Description

Summary: Filmed at the Tokyo Dome City Hall in Japan on April 9th 2014, these Japanese dates were the first to feature Jeff Beck’s new backing band of Jonathan Joseph (drums), Nicolas Meier (guitars) and Rhonda Smith (bass). The setlist includes some freshly minted songs that fans will never have heard before. In contrast to Beck’s previous visual releases, Performing This Week…Live At Ronnie Scott’s and Rock ‘N’ Roll Party, which both filmed in small clubs, Live In Tokyo is filmed in a major concert arena and has a very different, more expansive feel.

"It probably goes without saying, but Beck's playing here is as flawless as ever. What really makes Live In Tokyo a treat for fans though, is watching his interaction with the great new band he has assembled ... But even playing with one of the best bands he has fronted in years, there is still no mistaking that the star attraction here remains Jeff Beck himself. Some of the cooler, closeup camera shots here really highlight Beck's spellbinding technique, particularly how heavily he uses the thumb to pluck those strings".
