Whew, most of the NY press was not too kind in their vailed praise of the musical abilities and performances of Jeff Beck and Eric Clapton who performed alone with their bands and then together at Madison Square Garden this past week. While I was just looking for a good show, musically, they, the press, wanted a guitar duel to the death. Sort of like that movie, or even better yet the Charlie Daniels tune about the fiddler and the devil.Just let the guys play and have fun while making a few bucks.
Beck was fantastic I might add.Check out the last song he does. Research it. Too cool.
