Created and uploaded upon hearing of the death of legendary guitarist, Jeff Beck.

RIP Geoffrey Arnold Beck
24 June 1944 – 10 January 2023


A wonderful tribute to a virtuoso, and of course to Bowie on the 7th anniversary of his passing. Nacho's montages are second to none.

Unfortunately, the audio quality was very poor.

However, thanks to a very new bootleg, we now have the raw mono soundboard from the night, thanks to Robin Mayhew (available here - http://www.robinmayhew.co.uk/pages/rmshop.htm I have sync'd the 2 audio tracks together as the guitars are mixed rather low in the new source, and in doing so I have made this 'stereo' though it's by no means on par with an official release. However, it allows us to enjoy the performance with much clearer audio.
