If you haven't seen it yet do so ASAP.  One of the best music documentaries I've ever seen and I've seen plenty.  Page, Clapton, Gilmore, Slash, Perry, Rod Stewart and many other luminaries express their admiration for Jeff, as well as some vintage footage from his storied history.  Check it out.

Sounds great.   I've been a Beck fan since my teens, he was largely who I patterned my own guitar style after.

I logged into on demand and found there is also an XTC documentary This Is Pop.  I had watched it who knows how long ago and had three minutes left.  Also The making of Pet Sounds, Black Sabbath, Eric Clapton, Jimi, ELO, damn.

Which ELO album? And what's the title? Link?

By the way, the Jeff Beck documentary is called "Still On The Run"

For those of us without Showtime, it's out on BluRay and DVD.  Probably should be added to this site.
And if you can't be with the prog you love, honey, love the prog you're with.

If Mason and Beck were in Floyd, PF would have had the best cars in rock until they quit and formed an exotic car garage.  LOL
