THE JEFF BECK GROUP
The second studio album by legendary British Jazz Fusion/Progressive Rock guitarist.
After the dissolution of the power trio Beck, Bogert & Appice (BBA) in spring 1974, Beck took time for session work with other bands. In December, a half-hearted "audition" for The Rolling Stones took place, Beck jamming Blues with the band for one day, before realizing their musical styles were not compatible. During this period, Beck decided to record an all-instrumental album, bringing back keyboardist Max Middleton from the second Jeff Beck Group. He hired George Martin to produce after hearing his work with the Mahavishnu Orchestra's 1974 album "Apocalypse". According to Carmine Appice, who played with Beck in BBA, he was involved in the writing and recording process of "Blow By Blow", but Appice's parts were edited out after a dispute with Beck's management. The fourth key contributor to "Blow By Blow" after Beck, Middleton, and Martin was Stevie Wonder, who gave Beck his songs "Cause We've Ended As Lovers" and "Thelonius", with Wonder playing clarinet on the latter uncredited. The former song appeared on Wonder's 1974 album "Stevie Wonder Presents: Syreeta", made with then-wife Syreeta Wright, while Wonder never recorded "Thelonius" himself. A cover of the Beatles song "She's a Woman" was selected, as well as the composition "Diamond Dust" by Bernie Holland of the band Hummingbird, consisting of musicians from the second Beck Group. The other five tracks were band originals with Beck and Middleton the main writers, and the last track on each side featured string arrangements by Martin. Beck dedicated "Cause We've Ended as Lovers" to fellow guitarist Roy Buchanan, with an acknowledgement to Wonder.
An instrumental album "Blow By Blow" was recorded in October 1974 and released via Epic Records in March 1975. It was a hit in the US, reaching No. 4 on the American Billboard 200 album charts, and was certified Platinum by the RIAA for a million copies sold. It remains Beck's highest-charting album.
A live version of the track "Scatterbrain" was featured in the video game Guitar Hero 5.
