JEFF BECK - Loud Hailer
Digipak CD + 9 Photos ℗ 2016
Guitar Oriented Rock
★★★★★★★☆☆
One of the most underrated guitarist whose style is not to stand out but to blend in with the music he performs. For this reason he is frequently playing solo parts for his peers. On Loud Hailer, I was expecting some of his good deeds to be repaid, mainly by Beth Hart. Unfortunately, that doesn't happen here, but we do get a big contribution from two rising stars of the British duo Bones and their producer Filippo Cimatti crafts a modern sounding CD for the Master. If you strip down all these songs to the basic, you'll find his Blues is intact. Jeff Beck is well known for passionate delivery and for that the highlight is on the beautiful ballad "Scared For The Children".
