Hello everybody,

I just received this great DVD: Jeff Beck - performing this week... Live at Ronnie Scott's. Check it out, http://www.bluesmagazine.nl/jeff-beck-performing-this-week-live-at-ronni...

Amazing, really. Both the man Jeff Beck himself and his band. Vinnie Colaiuta on drums, the girl bass player... Great performance and diversity. Much interaction within the band. Fun guest appearances, but the DVD would have been fantastic without that too. Very small, intimate venue. Kind of like the New Morning Paris Lukather/Carlton DVD. And people like Robert Plant in the audience.
Bust most of all: superb sound and virtuoso.

Is this topic Toto related? Well I think it is a bit: I thought Luke is a friend of Beck's, and a song co-written by Simon Phillips is on this DVD: Space Boogie.

I would like to recommend everyone to get this DVD!

Would be great if such a DVD by Luke would appear these coming years. But I'm sure this will happen. This Jeff Beck DVD also kept his fans waiting for a long time.

Cheers,
Peter

Travel is awesome

Can't wait for the 2010 record and for you to start on it. Have you thought of joining a sports team? They travel a lot.
