Snooze Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 I'm referring to the 1992 Paris gig. I'm wondering if Beck was rescheduled after having to pull out because of illness? Also, if anyone knows, was Locomotive going to be the song he guested on? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He rehearsed it in the afternoon and blew his eardrum I believe so went home. It never happened. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soon Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 I think that playing on Duffs solo album was the closest he ever came to them after that? He suffered tinitus (maybe as a result?). It involves hearing certain frequencies in your ear. And has had to try hard to work around that since. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AxlSlashthebest Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 (edited) I don't know if I can put the youtube link but put " warmup locomotive jeff beck guns" in youtube and u will find it Edited August 4, 2020 by AxlSlashthebest 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soon Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 I have a feeling he would have also joined them elsewhere in the Paris PPV, along with Perry and Tyler for the performance of Train Kept a Rolling. Because Beck was in Yard Birds and Yard Birds played that song. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My old man paid for the show on Sky TV as a treat so i was on the hunt for the Paris show. Thanks for the suggestion anyways man! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because Beck was in Yard Birds and Yard Birds played that song. Good point. It's quite an easy song for multiple guitarists to play on too, as evidenced by that TV clip where there are like 10 famous leads all playing it together. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UsedYourIllusion Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 If they had performed, it would've made the Paris '92 show the most precious and important proshot we would have as a fanbase Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lame ass security Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 In an interview Jeff was genuinely excited about doing it. Guns had gotten ahold of Jeff's manager and he asked him if he's interested. I think Jeff asked where it was going to be and when he found out he was like "absolutely."😊 But I'm sure he was excited about playing with Guns too.

Didn't like his tone and style in that particular song, and it got really messy with Slash also playing leads. Maybe Beck just thought it didn't sound good and felt like not doing it.

Amaya Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 Off subject. HBO or Showtime has a Beck doc. On The Run, I think it is called. It is old so some of you saw it before. Slash took part in this documentary of Jeff Beck. I cannot remember what he said. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieselDaisy Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 There is actually footage of the Beck/Locomotive rehearsal that was filmed for some tv/news crew. A brief snippet of it was on a documentary or news report I had from my VHS collecting days. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I alway felt watching that footage that Jeff beck as good as he is a guitar player looked ever so slightly lost. I hate saying that but that's how he(Jeff beck) looks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
