Jeff Beck

yeah I had a chance to see him live as well, but I didn't have any cash on me at the time.

right on, so whats your favorite album?

Myself I have enjoyed everything I have heard thus far, but Blow By Blow and BBA are my favorites. :)

took me a while to get into his techno though, I had to see a video of him doing it live to believe it :P

Believe me, I tried getting him in here about a year ago. I was mainly citing his intstrumental albums in the 70s and Guitar Shop as the main sources of his prog works. They are very progressive in my opinion, but not everyone else agrees with me.

I can definately see where they can hold albums like Truth, Beckola, and Rough and Ready out as not progressive, (I didn't list BBA, as it is in between his progressive path and his earlier blues rock roots when I listen to it). But I agree, albums like Wired, Blow By Blow, There and Back, etc. are definately progressive (at least to me as well :)). Not to mention the techno stuff he's been doing lately deserves tons of praise, all you have to do is watch it live:
