Damn, that was great from the first note!!!

BTW I've got a house down in Renton now and will be setting up my lab soon (well, over the next few months). I'll drag all of my amps up here and we can have it 'em. It's been months since I've played through an amp :-/

Maybe it's just me, but I always thought Jeff Beck did that tune better than the writer (Stevie Wonder). That group with the left overs from Vanilla Fudge and Beck was a weird combo. Beck's earlier group with Ron Wood, Rod Stewart and Nicky Hopkins, was probably the most unrecognized super group to ever grace the planet. I forget who the drummer was...

Aynsley Dunbar was perhaps the most famous, but not the longest lasting, drummer in the Jeff Beck Band.

The first Jeff Beck Group formed in London in early 1967 and included guitarist Jeff Beck, vocalist Rod Stewart, rhythm guitarist Ronnie Wood, with bass players and drummers changing regularly. Early bass players were Jet Harris and Dave Ambrose, with Clem Cattini and Viv Prince trying out on drums. The line-up went through months of personnel changes, notably no fewer than four drummers before settling on Aynsley Dunbar and switching Ron Wood to bass. This line up spent most of 1967 playing the UK club circuit and appeared several times on BBC Radio. Beck signed a personal management contract with record producer and manager Mickie Most who had no interest in the group, only Beck as a solo artist.

During 1967 the band released three singles in Europe and two in the United States, the first, "Hi Ho Silver Lining", being the most successful, reaching No. 14 on the UK singles chart; it included the instrumental "Beck's Bolero" as the B side, which had been recorded several months earlier. The line-up for that session included guitarist Jimmy Page on rhythm guitar, John Paul Jones on bass, Keith Moon on drums, and Nicky Hopkins on piano.[1] Frustrated that the band was not playing a strict enough blues set for his taste, drummer Dunbar left and was replaced by Roy Cook for one show, before Stewart recommended Micky Waller, a bandmate of his from Steampacket. Waller went on to play with the band all through 1968 and early 1969, and was their longest-lasting drummer.[2]
