The "focus beam" artist this week is the late, great English guitarist Jeff Beck. We'll hear about his hall of fame career with early bands, The Yardbirds and solo material along with a couple of stellar tracks from his discography. There's also tunes from some of his many influences including Chuck Berry, The Jimi Hendrix Experience, The Shadows, Gene Vincent & The Blue Caps (co-written by Cliff Gallup), Buddy Guy and Link Wray! Beth's Bop Of The Week is a rocker from Anthony Rosano & The Conqueroos. Jammin' James Riley has a trippy song from Dick Dale in Hang Ten and Lucky 757 close out the show with a cover and mutual admiration of Gene Vincent & The Blue Caps.
