Jeff Beck 'There & Back' Epic Records 1980 - 48 X 33 inches
This is a very rare poster indeed - and perhaps one of only a handful surviving.
And, probably due to the type of artist he is - appealing to a relatively 'select' audience of 'grown-ups' (?) - this poster has never suffered from duplication or pirated copies .
I bought it from a specialist dealer in LA, in 2003. And they, in turn, had acquired it from a big music industry charity auction, held in NYC, in 1981.
The poster promotes 'There & Back' - and a return to the studio, after his two spectacular, seminal albums of the mid-70s: 'Blow by Blow' & 'Wired'.
The album's style, and Beck's back-to-work approach was clearly mirrored by Epic's equally, back-to-basics, presentation; which, no-doubt, was also a response to post-'76-'77 changes in attitude within the industry.
And, the black 'n' white image of the no-nonsense, working musician - devoid of rock star trappings are 'in' - whilst glam & excess would have been most definitely 'out' ...
Which, in Beck's case, is pretty accurate, anyhow - because he always has been that kind of no B-S, 'musicians' musician'...
And, that's also probably why this particular poster remains special ...
Framed and properly displayed - This poster would be Very Striking
And, naturally, it'll be carefully wrapped & shipped in a very strong tube
