I think Guitar Shop put Jeff Beck back on the map.

That’s still not true . The album didn’t even chart in the UK. And only 59 in the States

I agree. Not his best work. Never put him back on the map. Never left. Cool cover though. That’s about it

Yesterday I listened to The Yardbirds’ I’m Not Talking. What an energetic, frantic sound, almost like a garage band. Jeff Beck’s playing was brilliant and raw. IMHO, one of their best.

FYR Guitar Shop went to no. 9 of the pop charts in Japan. Enough proof of Beck’s popularity in the country.

One of the great Ifs was if Beck had joined the Stones in1975.He probably would not have lasted through half of the Tour of Americas , but at that time the Taylor replacement was only announced as a guest on that tour. So all he was really committed to was the tour. It would have been interesting to hear him play live with them. As it is Wood did a great job on that tour

When Rod Stewart toured for his Camouflage album back in 84, Jeff played with him but only for a short period of time. Tour started in Vancouver and then down the US west coast. I believe Jeff quit when they were in the San Fran area.
Great comment by Jeff at the time: We have a love/hate relationship. He loves me and I hate him!

I listened to a tape of Jeff's last show yesterday. He was still on top of his game in November. Johnny Depp didn't really play on that many songs & the songs he did play on weren't terrible.

Jeff Beck has been off the map due to a car crash and a cymbal crash. Apart from that he has played with all possible great bands i.e artists, not the least with Jagger, Keith Richards, Ron Wood, and the Stones as a band. Never with Mick Taylor. They used the same Strat it seems. Fender Strat, formerly owned by Jeff Beck and Mick Taylor and sold ca 2016 according to a member of the Mick Taylor fanclub:

Unfortunately meningitis got Jeff off the map for good. No more tours or new records. RiP.
