'Cornbread'By Cornbread
Jeff Beck – Truth
Jeff Beck – Truth

Every once in a while you are just browsing the cd section that you've looked thru a dozen times and out pops a CD you gotta get. It's even better when you listen to it and like it. This is an example of such and turned out to be diamond in the ruff, a true gem of a cd. With songs originally released 40 years ago this timeless treasure of 60's psychedelic blues this CD is killer. An unknown at the time, Rod Stewart joins buddy Beck with rich vocals. I really liked track 14, Bolero, the keys on 15, Blues De Luxe (take 1). Shapes Of Things is a rearranged Yardbirds song.

You get 18 tracks, 11-18 are bonus tracks. Joining Beck and Stewart is Ron Wood forming Becks post Yardbirds super group. Keith Moon is on tracks 8, 5 and 14. Jimmy Page plays 12-string 8 and 14. John Paul Jones is playng organ on 4, 5, 12 and bass on 8, 14 & 18. The guitar is excellent. Some songs would be better loud, no duds here, there isn't a bad track. This gets a 5 on the STLBluesometer – a must have.
'Nuff said. Buy the CD!

Love and peace til next time.
