 Beck is Great August 23, 2007

This is my favorite album from Jeff Beck. Love some of the tunes on this.
 Great Compilation May 10, 2007
S J Buck (Kent, UK)
This is a great introduction to Jeff Beck. From the mid to late 60's to the late 80's a large chunk of the mans career is covered. Many different styles are covered from blues based material down to more Jazz-Rock based stuff such 'Blue Wind' recorded with the the Jan Hammer group in 1976 and 'Goodbye Pork Pie Hat' recorded a year earlier. Whatever style he plays Jeff Beck always lets the soulful side of the guitar come through. There is a much more comprehensive 3 CD boxed set available called 'Beckology', but if you're really unsure about whether to take a chance this is as good a place to start as any.
Beck at his Best May 8, 2007
Louis C. Caiazzo (San Diego, CA)
The song, "People Get on Board," with Rod Stewart is, alone, worth the price of the album.
Some of his best ever February 1, 2006

The Best of Beck is an abridged account of Jeff Beck. It covers his entire career after he left the Yardbirds.
Many of his best songs are included such as, The Pump, People Get Ready with Rod Stewart, Freeway Jam from Blow by Blow.
Where were You from Guitar Shop is also included and one of his best ever. You also get Going Down from the second version of the Jeff Beck Group.
Goodbye Pork Pie Hat from Blue Wind is also included.
Jeff Beck has numerous other songs that are not included on this album.
If you want the real deal get Beckology.
Beckology is much more extensive and includes his best songs from the Yardbird days.
There is nothing wrong with this album, its just that there is so much more that is not included.
If you want the Best of Beck in a nutshell then this is for you.
Amazing guitarist at his best September 6, 2005

Jeff Beck is the kind of guitarist that most rockers would love to be able to emulate. He is truly a virtuoso up there in the ranks with the best ever but he tops them all in his unique approach. No one fills a space better than Jeff. And this cd shows his influence over 40 years of rock and roll brilliantly. He has always been fearless and he's never been boring or predictable. Almost every song leaves the listener with a "how did he do that?" impression. I highly recommend this collection to anyone unfamiliar with his incredible contributions to the art of rock music and to his many fans who just need a "Beck fix" from time to time.
