5 stars for technical brilliance, 2 stars for musicality.......2007-07-16
Jeff Beck is definately one of the greatest guitar gods ever, and he definately proves this here his riffs are hard hitting and his solos are fast and brilliant. However, one thing this album does not succeed in is giving a musical experience. Most of the songs are hard rocking but steady giving a heavy load kind of feel and the softer songs are less spectacular because of the mechanical keyboad "orchestras" backing jeff up.
Amazing playing, but if you want a musical experience check out Blow by Blow or Wired
Five Stars are not Enough!!.......2007-06-27
From the holy trinity of Beck, Clapton, and Page; this work has to be considered among the best of the best. A must for any fan of the three. Beck's best by far.
Technically flawless, but..........2007-05-10
Jeff Beck is often compared to his two fellow Yardbird alumni, Messrs Clapton and Page and frequently gets (deserved)credit for having surpassed them in his vision of what a guitar can do. While I'm not familiar enough with Page's work, other than the better known Led Zep material, to speak to his accomplishments, I'd have to say that Clapton, at least as it appears, has deepened in ways not evident on Jeff Beck's Guitar Shop. Sure, there are great grooves and intense playing and of course, amazing guitar solos. But the auto garage metaphor here works more than perhaps the musicians knew. The album is mostly pure, metallic testosterone. Barely any subtlety or warmth. Big, powerful and unapologetically beefy, Guitar Shop is an engaging disc but you're more likely to sit in wide-eyed appreciation of it than be moved or touched by it. It's shiny, but cold. Want to hear Jeff Beck more in touch with his "feminine side?" Check out his recent duet with Kelly Clarkson that aired on the American Idol charity benefit (available on itunes). He's restrained, sensitive and lyrical. And almost 20 years older!
Another gem from the the Dalai Lama of the guitar!.......2006-09-04
You can't go wrong with a trio as versatile and talented as Beck, Bozzio and Hymas. "Behind the veil" is worth the price of admission alone. Also "Savoy" and "Two Rivers". Let's face it. This guy is the best. Noel Redding (Hendrix's late bassist) confessed in an interview that Beck was his favorite. Heck, you needn't interview me for me to say the same. My favorite album of his is "You had it coming". If you're in doubt, go with that CD. And do consider "Who else". In my opinion "You had it coming" is his best. Oops, did I neglect to mention "Blow by blow" and "Beck-Ola"? Excellent illustrations of his outstanding talent.
Hard, metallic, and rough.......2006-04-26
I really like this album, but I am not sure it is quite a 5 star classic. Released in 1989, the CD is 39 minutes long and the sound quality is very good.
The great thing about Jeff Beck is that he is always experimenting and pushing the boundaries. The difficult thing is that you never know what you are going to get with a Jeff Beck CD. You might love one of his styles and hate his others. Many people who like Beck's pop music (especially the days he was with Rod Stewart) or his jazz fusion, hate this CD.
This is a trio of Beck, Terry Bozzio (from Frank Zappa and Missing Persons) and keyboardist Tony Hymas. The music has a very hard and rough edge to it, but it isn't heavy metal or hard rock.
There are vocals on two tracks, but it isn't singing. It is like a manic rap. It is strange and very addictive. It is similar to the ending of the Tube's What Do You Want From Life.
Like Beck's Rough and Ready and Blow By Blow, I find the music very atmospheric and absorbing. It is the type than can transport you to a different reality where you completely lose yourself in the music. Your head is spinning when the CD is over.
I can't quite give this 5 stars. There are some sensational tracks, such as the "vocals" Guitar Shop and A Day in the House. The tracks in the middle are also very stunning, getting the most of the keyboard and guitar interaction. But, some tracks are just merely good. Two Rivers is a just mundate New Age type jazz number. Behind the Veil and Sling Shot are fusion type numbers that Beck has done much better in the past.
If you like this, you have to get Jeff Beck Live at BB King's.
If you want to try something along the same lines but a little more melodic but spacy, with longer compositions, check out Francis Monkman Jam.

Great Comeback Harking to the Inventive "Blow By Blow" days!.......2005-12-02
This is a great comeback album for guitar innovator/pioneer Jeff Beck. After a long hiatus, Beck returns with a strong backing lineup and strong, inventive tracks with a sense of humour as well. There are spoken verses throughout a couple of the tracks and "Where Were You" really stands out among other great tracks. This version comes in a mini-lp replica sleeve and has been remastered and so the sound is quite good but not great. Years back when I first got the cassette tape, I noticed that the sound quality was quite poor and so I'm guessing the original master wasn't all that well produced and so given that, I guess the remastering has really cleaned up the original sound quite a bit so that it's decent but not great. I guess we've been spoiled by the great production on "Blow By Blow" (Sir George Martin!) and "Wired" but although sound quality-wise this album doesn't stack up to those two, the song quality comes real close. This is probably the best version of this album that is out there and is highly recommended for all Beck fans.

Album Description
The album opens with a bang, led by the title track Clarify, "a perfect modern pop tune," according to one critic. From there the album slides and shimmies from the Americana-esque twang of 'Archipelago of Main Street' to the Nashville tinged 'Everything & More.' Burtis is adept at a number of styles, and he moves easily between rock, pop, folk, and even some country and rockabilly. What holds the album together is the integrity of the lyrics. A former fiction writer, Burtis paints vivid pictures and digs into moments that most songwriters wouldn't dare to touch. If you're looking for intelligent, even intellectual rock/folk, with a sense of humor and a driving groove, this is your album, from a true independent artist.
