Jeff Beck has planned a short U.S. tour around his appearance at Eric Clapton’s Crossroads festival
in 1967 with Stewart on vocals and current Rolling Stones guitarist Ron Wood on bass, among other members.last year, Beck reflected on when he finally met Clapton — well after the two of them were both out of the Yardbirds. He said that even though Clapton has admitted to feeling some rivalry toward him, he didn’t feel the same. “I just thought he’s got the blues covered,” Beck said. “And he’s also got some very good pop songs. And I don’t have either, really.
He also discussed why he broke up the Jeff Beck Group at a time when they seemed to be on the precipice of fame. The band had been booked to play Woodstock, but Beck canceled the gig. “We just hadn’t played in front of large audiences,” he said. “We’d done the Fillmore West, which was a joyous thing, except for the part where everybody started to sniff the smoke in the air, which would make you stoned.
Beck later buried the hatchet with Stewart, appearing as a special guest at one of Stewart’s gigs in 1984.September 17 – Kansas City, MO @ Uptown TheaterSeptember 21 – Austin, TX @ Paramount TheatreSeptember 24 – Phoenix, AZ @ Celebrity Theatre
