The Best Of Jeff Beck

[Bovema 92207 (Holland)] Released : September, 1969
Hi Ho Silver Lining/ Tallyman/ Love Is Blue/ Rice Pudding/ Rock My Plimsoul (Stereo Version)/ I've Been Drinking/ Shapes Of Things/ I Ain't Superstitious/ Plynth (Water Down The Drain)/ Beck's Bolero (Stereo Version)/ Blues De Luxe/ Girl From Mill Valley/ Rock My Plimsoul (Mono Version)/ Beck's Bolero (Mono Version)
オランダ編集盤。『Truth』 と 『Cosa Nostra Beck Ola』、既発シングルから選ばれている。ジェフの初期ソロ・シングルは比較的ポップだが、これはミッキー・モストのプロデュースが原因。それらのB面では逆に、ヘビーな曲をプレイしているのも特徴だ。
Holland compilation. Selected from "Truth", "Cosa Nostra Beck Ola" and singles. Singles by the early Jeff Beck solo years were pop, because of Micky Most's producing. But each of the pop single's B-side sounds heavier. Some fans say that Jeff gave A-side away to the producer, but he did what he wanted to on B-side.

ボックス・セット・ブームの真っ直中にリリースされた3枚組編集盤。デビュー前の録音やベック・ボガート&アピス時代の未発表曲など、珍しいテイクはあるものの、いかにしろその曲数が少ない。セッション・ワークからも数曲ピック・アップされている。全体的に、ステージでいまだにプレイしそうな曲があまり多く入っていない。そもそも企画段階では4枚組になる予定で、編集はグレッグ・ゲラーに任せきりだった。ジェフ本人は選曲にはほとんど関わっていない。候補リストの中で気に入らないものをオミットしただけのようだ。本人としては、「 Star Cycle 」が収録されなかったのを残念に思っている模様。パッケージはフェンダーのオールド・ツイード・ケース仕様で、これ以上ないくらいにジェフらしい。後に、縮小版パッケージのバージョンも発売された。
3CDs box set. Including the materials before his official debut, a number from the second Beck, Bogert & Appice album. Some numbers are taken from session works. This was supposed to be released as 4CD set. Compiled by Gregg Geller. Jeff himself didn't participate in choosing of the tracks. Just seemed to cut the numbers he didn't like to be in the box set. In a interview, he regretted to omit "Star Cycle". The package simulates Fender's old tweed guitar case.

The Pump/ People Get Ready/ Freeway Jam/ Shapes Of Things/ Where Were You/ Beck's Bolero/ Going Down/ Jailhouse Rock/ Goodbye Pork Pie Hat/ Blue Wind/ Plynth (Water Down The Drain)/ Two Rivers/ Scatterbrain/ She's A Woman
1995年の夏に、唐突にサンタナとのジョイント・ツアーが行われた。何年もアルバムを作らないどころか、いきなりプロモートすべきアルバムもないままにツアーを行うジェフに対して、エピックがとった策が、このアルバムのリリースだった。これといって特に珍しいテイクは含まれていない。
Jeff decided to tour with Carlos Santana, summer 1995. But there was no album to promote, so Epic released this album. No rare tune or take.

Shapes Of Things : 60s Groups And Sessions - Jeff Beck

[Castle CMQCD702 (1CD)] Released : 2003
Dracula's Daughter/ Come Back Baby/ I'm Not Running Away/ So Sweet/ That's My Story/ Stormy Monday Blues/ Heart Full Of Soul/ Evil Hearted You/ Still I'm Sad/ Shapes Of Things/ The Train Kept A-Rollin'/ Jeff's Blues/ Steelin'/ Chuckles/ But She's Mine/ And The Sun Will Shine/ The Dog Presides/ Hi Ho Silver Lining/ Beck's Bolero/ Rock My Plimsoul/ Utterly Simple/ Barabajagal/ Trudi/ The Eureka Springs Garbage Lady/ The Captain's Fat Theresa Shoes/ The Ghost Chained To The Past, Present And Future
1960年代の入手困難な録音を中心とした編集盤。客演ものが目玉だが、ヤードバーズや第一期ジェフ・ベック・グループ音源も含み、1960年代アンソロジーの趣もある。
The collection of 1960's materials, including some hard-to-find tunes. A lot of guest appearances are the reason you must buy this disk, but some of The Yardbirds' and Jeff Beck Group's tunes are also featured, so it can be said that this is an anthology of 1960's Jeff Beck's whole recordings.
