Description

Despite Jeff Beck's enormous output - and his status as one of the all-time guitar legends - fans and critics alike hark back repeatedly to the short-lived Jeff Beck group of the 1960s. Featuring Rod Stewart on vocals and Ronnie Wood on bass, the Group, though only a brief note in the chronology of Beck's career, have had a lasting impact on the landscape of modern music. Truth, their first album, has been hailed as the first ever heavy metal LP. Award-winning author Dave Thompson has put together the first ever analysis of this seminal work.
