JEFF
BECK - Rock 'N' Roll Party Honouring Les Paul
~Available on DVD and Blu-ray February
22nd, 2011~
Filmed in high definition
at the Iridium Jazz Club in New York City this past spring, this musical celebration of the great Les Paul features selections of his songs and other great rock
'n' roll tracks. Additionally, ATCO will be offering a CD of this exclusive show, featuring 20 live tracks from the evening,
on the same day.
On June 9, 2010, which would have been Les Paul's 95th birthday, Jeff Beck and
a host of special guests paid homage to the musical icon at the very club where he performed every Monday night. Rockabilly
songstress Imelda May and her band, led by Darrel Higham, as well as Gary U.S. Bonds,
Brian Setzer and Trombone Shorty, join Beck on many of the tracks. This
collection of talent, performing in the club's intimate setting, truly captures the spirit of Les Paul's
weekly gigs, and the DVD puts the viewer right there in the audience for a showcase of stunning musicianship and truly great
songs. Spotted in the audience at this spectacular event is an amalgam of stars, such as David Bowie, Meat Loaf, Steven Van
Zandt, Paul Shaffer, Kirk Hammett, and Nils Lofgren.
Rock
'N' Roll Party Honouring Les Paul includes the classics "Bye
Bye Blues," "Sitting On Top Of The World," "Mockin' Bird Hill," "Peter Gunn," "How
High The Moon," "New Orleans," "Walking In The Sand," and many more! In addition to the music, the
DVD contains a host of bonus features: An interview with Jeff Beck; Behind The Scenes; "At home with
Jeff Beck & his guitars";
"Jeff Beck & Les Paul - Rock 'n' Roll Tonite" and "Les Paul
& his little black box."
Following the hugely successful release of Jeff
Beck's Performing This Week...Live at

to be missed by fans of this true guitar icon.
