'Rock And Roll Party To Honor Les Paul,' Jeff Beck's Concert Tribute To The Iconic Guitarist Recorded This Summer At The Iridium Jazz Club In New York City.
Jeff Beck paid fitting tribute to Les Paul last summer, celebrating what would have been the pioneering guitarist's 95th birthday by playing his friend and mentor's music, along with classic tunes from the era, in the same Times Square nightclub that Les Paul played every Monday for 14 years, before his death in August 2009.
Sponsored by Gibson Guitar and billed as 'A Celebration of Les Paul,' Jeff Beck was joined by The Imelda May Band at the Iridium Jazz Club on June 9th, 2010. The two-time Rock And Roll Hall of Fame inductee mesmerized the star-studded audience with a tour de force performance of classics that Paul recorded with Mary Ford, 'How High The Moon,' 'Vaya Con Dios' and 'Mockin' Bird Hill,' along with such rock and roll standards as 'Twenty Flight Rock' and 'Walking In The Sand.'
Following this release, Beck will take the 'Rock And Roll Party' on the road for a short U.S. tour. Beck will once again be backed by The Imelda May Band and its enchanting singer, Imelda May, who joined Beck on stage at the 2010 Grammy® Awards for a spot-on rendition of Paul's 'How High The Moon.'
PBS will give fans a first look at a unique edition of this performance with the premiere of 'Jeff Beck Honors Les Paul,' a concert special that captures the first night of 'The Celebration to Honor Les Paul,' which was recorded on June 9, 2010, what would have been Les Paul's 95th birthday. Special guest performers included Troy 'Trombone Shorty' Andrews, Gary U.S. Bonds and Brian Setzer, who traded riffs with Beck on Eddie Cochran's rockabilly classic 'Twenty Flight Rock.'

If you don't like this one, then you don't REALLY like rock'n'roll, blues or jazz or you have have been living under a rock for too long... even if you don't like this jazzy, swingy, rockabilly, bluesy style, I guarantee this music will be a success at almost any party for young folks as well as older folks and that is hard to do...
Les Paul was the Guitar God who also invented many of the recording techniques and music technologies that are still important to the entire world today... He deserves to be a bigger legacy than most people know... I had the privilege to meet Les and hang out with him briefly for one evening about 20 years ago and his charisma and professionalism just knocked me out. This music here is a GREAT way to honor the man!!! It captures a lot of his spirit and the soul that he streamed in his artistry and musical dialogues --- Jeff Beck definitely summoned his spirit and I bet that the presence of Les Paul was really felt by the artists and audiences here as the music just exudes heavenly vibrations and really connects to another dimension....
I have always loved Jeff Beck... I saw him and the Yardbirds (with Jimmy Page) in the 60's and I loved his guitar style and the music from this band alot --- I loved his style 20 years ago but I think he is now better than ever... He is a musician's musician but highly charismatic to almost anyone who will give his music a couple of listens...
I literally wore out my Jeff Beck Beckola and Truth vinyl albums from the later 60's that had Rod Stewart singing great blues and with a band that included other legends like John Paul Jones and with guest appearances by Jimmy Page I believe... those albums really rocked and Jeff Beck evolved into one of the truly innovative guitar artists of the 20th Century and now the 21st Century... His style of eloquent jazz rock fusion is something else... I love Clapton, Page, Bonamassa, BB King, Django Reinhart, Muddy Waters, Howling Wolf and a few other Jazz, Blues, Rock Guitarists, but I sincerely believe Jeff Beck has risen to the top of them all... just check out his Live at Ronny Scott's recording and Video and also some of his earlier solo work... if you are a musician, you will really appreciate his music projects, but if you just like good rock n' roll, this album is soooo--- good for any one that wants to rock out or listen to party music fun!... This may be the most accessible Jeff Beck music for the global audience of any recordings that Jeff has put out in his lifetime...
Imelda May who sings lead on quite a few tunes is drop dead smokin' perfect for this project!!!! I really love her authentic take on How High the Moon, Sitting on Top of the World, Bye Bye Blues, Vaya Con Dios and the other Les Paul tunes and certainly she has few tricks up sleeves in terms of her approach for this project on all songs she sings which is really cool!!!... she really captures Les Paul's wife Mary Ford in spirit and Imelda is just a knockout singer period.... get her CDs too if you like this album (i.e. Johnny Got a Boom Boom is truly a song that will stick in your memory)... The other guests including Brian Setzer, Darrel Higham, Gary US Bonds and Trombone Shorty are just fantastic and the mix of artists and the tunes selected is just perfect!!!!
WELL DONE PRODUCTION TEAM!!!! Great Band and Guests, Great Song Choices, Great Live Recording --- THANK YOU JEFF!!!
I saw the PBS special and had to get the CD when it came out and I couldn't stop listening to this music the moment the CD arrived from Amazon (I also ordered the Blue Ray) ...and I believe there is some music on the CD not seen on the Video --- i.e. The Train It Kept A Rolling which the Yardbirds with Jeff Beck did way back in the 1960's (The band Aerosmith and Led Zepplin amongst others copied this song but IMO the Yardbirds version with Jeff Beck and the Yardbirds really did the song justice and to hear Jeff play it again here on this CD is a real treat....
If you want to Boogie to something really good, get this music and expect to move your feet and/or feel the songs in your soul!
THIS ALBUM ROCKS AND ROCKS and ROLLS AND ROLLS.... HEY LET'S PARTY!!!!!
HOLD THAT TIGER ---MEOW, MEOW, MEOW!!!!!

w special guest Trombone Shorty (rocking on Peter Gunn) - just an excellent concert - very tight band - interesting tonal experiments from Jeff, Imelda May's vocal are hot and swingin' - Leo Green, former Van Morrison sax player scorches, the sonic levels of the recording are great, it's like you're there!
Smokin' to say the least.

This is a Great CD,however,there is a Deluxe Limited Edition 2 CD Set, sold by Amazon 3rd Party Sellers!!!!
February 23, 2011
Format:Audio CD
If you scroll, on down the Amazon Products, or do a search for the deluxe edition, for this Jeff Beck CD, you'll find, a special, deluxe, limited edition 2 CD set, which includes 8 bonus songs from another, live performance, at the Grammy Hall of Fame. These are sold by Amazon, "3rd Party", sellers. Just thought that would be helpful. The Special Deluxe, Limited Edition, is only available for a limited time, and is destined to become a genuine "collector's item". Thanks!!!!
Also another option is: if you buy the Amazon 1 CD version, along with Amazon's "Jeff Beck's Live at The Grammy Museum" CD, you'll have the basically the exact same thing, that was the "Deluxe, limited, edition. Because the extra bonus CD, on the 2 CD Deluxe Edition, 8 performances live from the Grammy Hall of Fame, contains the exact same 8 live performances, on the "Jeff Beck Live From the Grammy Hall of Fame CD". However, it will not be a genuine "collector's item", like the 2CD Deluxe Limited Edition, version. I hope this has been helpful. Thanks!!!

Rock 'N' Roll Party
This is an outstanding CD. Some of the music is familiar, and the remakes are close to the originals in sound and style. This is an enjoyable CD.

Enjoyed Jeff Beck's and Darrel Higham's great guitar work. The band and Imelda May brought new life to Les Paul and Mary Ford's music.

Just a lot of fun
A recent convert to the house of Paul. Beck and gang evoke Paul very well, though other
influences (e.g. Elvis) are also in the song choice. Read more

Jeff Beck...
...and Imelda May. Who'da thought they'd mix so well. Stranger things have happened, & Les Paul in it, too,(spiritually speaking). Top-notch, this one.
