Review Performing This Week: Live at Ronnie Scott's [Blu-ray]

Performing This Week: Live at Ronnie Scott's [Blu-ray] Best Review

I friend of mine was playing this on DVD in his music store, and I was impressed, to say the least, at the performance. I bought it here on Blu Ray, and after viewing it in 1080p, I was floored. On a 62" screen with surround, it was easy to immerse yourself in the performance, and wow! What a performance! Jeff's whole band is unbelievable, (especially the child-like waif of a bass player) and Jeff's skills are jaw dropping. The set of rockabilly tunes in the "extras" section on the Blu Ray are almost worth the price of admission on their own. Standout tracks to me are "Because We've Ended As Lovers" and "A Day In The Life". This disc is the first time I've heard Imogene Heap sing, and I must say, she is striking.

Quit reading and just buy the damned Blu Ray already!

superb experience - Mr. E. Daniel - townsville, Australia
every once in a while comes along a concert dvd that shines above the rest;

jeff beck's "performing this week.. live at ronnie scott's" is one of them-hands down!.

there are absolutly no dud tracks, the synergy and performances of the musicans is jaw dropping throughout, the sense of fun comes acorss well and makes the experience both visually and audio wise pure pleassure.

vinnie is more fluent than seem humanely possible, tal is a mezmerizing entity and of course there is this wizard jeff. in addition guest appearances are tasteful and add to the variety and diversity of the show

for those who loves to get lost in their music- this is a must have product!!



Best from the Best - Philip Decatanzaro - Ottawa, ON
If you are expecting a large live concert with poor sound quality and lots of crowd action, you'll be disappointed. This DVD captures Jeff Beck showing his best, without the high volume that you would think that he would need to use the whammy bar skills that he has. Jeff shows off the best of his band while not stealing the complete show. I have been a fan since the 1968 Truth album. This DVD showed me that I should have followed him more closely, than just buying the odd album or CD since then.

This DVD is really worth having in your collection. The guest vocalists are terrific. Having Eric Clapton was great. The only other guitarist that could touch Jeff's skill is Satriani. The interviews with Jeff were great.






Amazing - Edwin Dukes - Oliver BC Canada
Absolutely amazing, I have watched the DVD 7 times. The musicians are all incredible. I would recommend this to any guitarist, drummer, keyboardist or bassist. cant get enough of it!
