DESCRIPTION:

<!- description ->JEFF BECK Truth (2021 limited edition Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab 10-track Ultradisc UHR? Super Audio CD - mastered from the original tapes and limited to 2500 numbered copies. This new SACD presents the album with unlimited dynamics andexceptional clarity. The core lineup ? Jeff Beck Rod Stewart Mickey Waller Ron Wood ? responsible for the groundbreaking performances Truth alone qualifies as a watershed accomplishment. That the 1968 landmark predated and impacted Led Zeppelins debut; involved
members of Zeppelin the Faces and the Who; continues to be
cited by many experts as the blueprint for hard rock; and
unspools with indescribable guitar wizardry and primal
energy put it into rarefied territory. Among the most
influential sets ever released Becks solo debut has never
spoken with more truth than on this exceptional reissue.

Mastered from the original master tapes and limited to 2500 numbered copies Mobile Fidelitys hybrid SACD puts you in Abbey Road and Olympic Sound Studios with the band. Free of the haze thinness and constrained nature of many prior editions it presents the music with three-dimensional depth revealing texture and unmistakable liveliness. Just as crucially and in line with Becks request in the original liner notes this audiophile release can be played loud without harshness and distortion. Truth is not for the fainthearted; it will help take your system to its limits.

Steeped in blues swing heaviness and firepower Becks six-string voodoo pushed conventions and boundaries at the time ? and still does now. As scribe Gene Santoro writes in his essay for Beckology &quotThe guitar may slash and burn or sigh an aching melody blaze a fusillade or arc a lyrical air ? but from the touch the phrasing you know its him.&quot And Mobile Fidelitys meticulously engineered reissue lets you identify Beck with unsurpassed certainty and intimacy. You can practically hear his fingertips on the frets while savoring the endless tones echoing from his notes sustains bends glissandos slides and major and minor chords.

Of course Becks charismatic contributions arent the only dramatically elevated features. Truth towers above nearly every other one of the British icons records due to the cohesiveness of its songs and chemistry shared by the band members ? as well as several choice guests. The full measure of Wallers foundation-busting percussive thunder for example can now be enjoyed without limitations. Ditto Woods steadying rhythms and the grit and grain present in Stewarts deliveries. The latters fabled combination of ragged looseness soulful shouting and organic rasp first make their appearance on Truth ? and would soon help him land his gig with the Faces not to mention catapult him to global stardom.

Such commercial success may have eluded Truth yet few platters remain more revered by listeners critics and fellow musicians. Considering it also involves Rolling Stones session/touring pianist Nicky Hopkins Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page Zeppelin bassist John Paul Jones and Who drummer Keith Moon ? and incluudes a roof-shaking rendition of Willie Dixons &quotYou Shook Me&quot that inspired Page given Zeppelin included it on its debut months later ? the sheer importance and scope of Truth cannot be over-exaggerated. Neither can the brilliance of the performances or inventiveness of Becks approaches.

He slyly traces back to his days in the Yardbirds with an acrobatic rendition of &quotShapes on Things&quot that opens the album and puts listeners on notice that things have changed. Slow chilling interpretations of &quotMorning Dew&quot and &quotOl Man River&quot ache with regret. A solo acoustic version of the traditional &quotGreensleeves&quot conveys grace and delicacy while Beck and company demonstrate they can turn on a dime the very next moment with &quotRock My Plimsoul.&quot And thats saying nothing of Becks signature piece the wordless &quotBecks Bolero&quot a tense powder keg further ignited by Page and Moon with the latter yelling halfway through and smashing the microphone leading to what you can now hear in stellar clarity ? a tidal wave of cymbals dominating the percussion.

By itself the song justifies Truth as does the seven-and-half-minute &quotBlues Deluxe&quot which stands up with any blues from any era and showcases Hopkins massive personality on the 88s. And lest we forget Beck turns his guitar into a carnival of animal and human voices on &quotI Aint Superstitious&quot with Stewart responding to every one. From start to finish theres not a single lapse. And thats the straight truth.
