Yesterday, Guitar Techniques received a promo of Jeff Beck's new album - Emotion and Commotion. Track listing is as follows:
1. Corpus Christi Carol
2. Hammerhead
3. Never Alone
4. Somewhere Over The Rainbow
5. I Put A Spell On You (featuring Joss Stone)
6. Serene
7. Lilac Wine (featuring Imelda May)
8. Nessun Dorma
9. There's No Other Me (featuring Joss Stone)
10. Elegy For Dunkirk (featuring Olivia Safe)
We're glad to say it is astoundingly good with Jeff playing as well as ever. If you're a fan of his Where Were You/Nadia style of whammy bar bends, harmonics, volume swells etc you'll love what he does on Corpus Christi Carol, Somewhere Over The Rainbow, Nessun Dorma and Elegy For Dunkirk. Alternatively, if you're into his The Pump/Led Boots rock stylings then the 12/8 feel of Hammerhead will appeal greatly!
Check out these live performances to get a taste of the music when the album is released in April:
