No one knows what the purpose of it originally was or if it had a purpose at all. Personally I think it was a pure artistic creation from the beginning.

I bought "Who Else!" last year and it was a sort of techno album! Maybe I will investigate his early stuff, but that album wasn´t that great.

it is hard to get into his techno-esque stuff at first.

However once you figure out that all those sounds are being made by a live band, and can be played live off the floor.

Here is a video - http://youtube.com/watch?v=wHaRAfxLd7g&search=jeff%20beck

I heard some of his techno albums first, and turned it off immediately - then I saw videos like the one above, and those albums are actually really fun listens now. Smile

I watched the video, it does make one see it in a completely different light, seems much more interesting! And he doesn´t use a plectrum at all!!

no doubt - first time I saw that video it instantly put the albums in perspective for me.

Jeff Beck is my favorite guitarist.

I have earlier emphasized that my opinions about new additions are influenced by the fact that many doubtful bands (subjective, I agree) like Talk Talk, Max Webster, Triumph, ELO, etc. are added so in my opinion Jeff Beck deserves it too because his outstanding albums Wired and There And Back. I am looking forward to review these albums on this site!
