 A good find for Beck and/or Cactus-Vanilla Fudge fans April 11, 2008
D. K. Hughes (Atlanta, Ga.)
My vinyl copy of this (in excellent condition) sounds great. It's well recorded, with minimized audience sound. Beck displays his signature guitar work over the rockin' rhythm section of Appice and Bogart. They had been playing together as Vanilla Fudge, and then as Cactus for years before joining up with Beck finally, after he recovered from injuries from a car wreck. If you haven't heard the two Cactus "Live and Unleashed" double -CD`s, seek them out immediately. I think Rhino has some of Vol. 2 left. That band rocked!
Beck is understated here, but does some nice work. There is use of the dreaded "squawk box", but it is a more understated use of it, compared to say.... Peter Frampton or Joe Walsh. His sound as always is wonderful.
Tim and Carmine's vocals are very much like their soulful Vanilla Fudge sound. This is of it's time, but a nice find if you can find it at the right price, for the enthusiast of this era, and of these artists.
Beck Rules!! A Master Class of Guitar January 23, 2008
G. Griffin (Alexandria, Va.)
This is one of the best live albums of its era. The power trio format leaves nothing but room for the master, Mr. Beck, to play as few can. Not a note is wasted. I see from other reviews that people are less than satified with the abilities of Carmine and Tim. While their playing can indeed be over the top and bombastic at times, when they hit it right they become a powerful canvas for Jeff to paint over. The vocals? Who cares? Nobody buys this expecting stellar singing. Also, it should be noted that Led Zeppelin "borrowed" (that is the nice way of putting it) their entire template from both Jeff Beck and Carmine and Timmy's older group Vanilla Fudge. So enjoy this for what it is, the originators of Heavy Rock doing it to death!!!
 Great BBA, maybe better than the studio. August 26, 2007
Palaver (Massachusetts)
I initially had trouble finding this anywhere and then put it off due to the price. I finally broke down and I'm glad I got it. I saw them live in Boston and this was pretty much the same concert. The recording represents the live sound very well. Early 70's Beck, a spectacle for the eye as well as the ear. Could play a jaw dropping guitar lead fill with his left hand while patting his mouth as if yawning with his right. The unmistakable Beck phrasing and signature guitar "voice" is on full display here.

An excellent transfer to CD of the hard to find japanese 2 disc set. Sounds great, despite the presence of 1/2 of Vanilla Fudge. Beck's guitar is amazing well recorded.

First off, I have been a Jeff Beck fan since the Yardbirds. I always was mystified as to why this album was only released in Japan. Now 30+ years after its release I understand why. It's not bad. Some of it is quite good. But it suffers from a lot of the '70's excesses that weren't that great back then (mandatory drum solos, audience call and response, etc.). Mostly, I expected much more flash from Beck and less Bogert and Appice. I still mostly love the studio album, but had bigger expectations for the live show having seen them do a monster version of "Morning Dew" on In Concert or some other '70's music show.
Bottom line: If you can somehow find a cheap copy it is no disgrace to your collection, but I certainly wouldn't recommend it at Japanese import prices.
