Jeff Beck Group: Rough and Ready & Jeff Beck Group a/k/a 'The Orange Album'

Read "Jeff Beck Group: Rough and Ready & Jeff Beck Group a/k/a 'The Orange Album'" reviewed by Doug Collette


The early phases of iconic British guitarist Jeff Beck's solo career proceeded in fits and starts, due in no small part to his admittedly temperamental nature, but also via twists of fate that, in fairly quick succession, stymied his progress then accelerated it proportionately.
