I've heard it before, I don't know why I don't like Beck, I wish I did like him lol, there's just something about his playing, everything from yardbirds to his newest solo stuff I can't like, usually stuff like that will grow on me, but it just does nothing for me
When I listen to Jeff Beck on The Yardbirds Album "Roger the Engineer" I get the feeling he's down at a pub somewhere doing his guitar riffs and then they bring it back for editing and the band has to follow what Jeff is doing - so perhaps Beck is casted as an outsider (in the sense he would go away and do his bits) and yet The Yardbirds was all about the Guitar player! I wasn't terribly impressed with the Number ("My Blind Life") he was featured on the "Birdland" album which the Yardbirds brought out a few years ago now - where's the rest of the album was great.
Even if all of that was true I still highly regard Jeff Beck cause of the music I've heard him featured on in the BBC Sessions album with The Yardbirds cause he could sound a bit like Clapton, though he has another style about him as well.
