Customer Reviews

Perfect choice for the undecided!
I have been a Beck fan since high school/college and own allthree of these albums on vinyl. After my initial disappointment in"Who Else!" (I don't know, maybe at 40, I'm to old to like the techno stuff, maybe Jeff was just better 25 years ago!), I wanted to replace one of my old vinyl albums with a CD. Going back through my collection, I found that my 3 favorite Beck releases were Blow By Blow (1975), Wired (1976), & There and Back (1980).

Since I had limited myself to buying just one of these, I had to make a decision! I was having a hard time deciding which was my favorite when I found this box set containing all 3!...(all 3 are better records than "Who Else!")

The Breakthrough Years
For A Brit, this is unbelievable value.These three albums chart JB's quantum leap for me, and I urge you to listen to "Cause we've ended as Lovers", "Led Boots", and "The Pump" (to take one from each) as demonstrations of Beck@s mastery.It's a personal thang, but next Hendrix, he discovered how to read a soul out of a guitar like no other... there are many really powerful tracks in this collection, and I cannot see a lover of electric guitar ever regretting stumping up the bucks for this slice of "Beethoven late quartet" level inspiration,beauty,and sheer octane.

Rock (& fusion) Guitar History
Jeff Beck was/is not only an innovator, he does it best. This isn't "buzzy, fuzzy flash," but soulful, melodic rock & roll guitar that's a must-have for fans of guitar instrumentals and great "cruisin' music." There's a track or two on each disc that I forward past, but with these three discs you can make one killer "mix CD" or load up your MP3 player.
