The review

This release presents the Jeff Beck Group 1967 radio sessions for the very first time in vinyl format. Side One has the first two tracks featuring Aynsley Dunbar on drums while the rest has Roger Cook; Side Two features Ron Wood on all tracks except Track number six where the bass is played by Ricky Fenson, in fact this is kind of out of place since it comes from a BBC sessions that Steampacket did in 1965 and there is no Jeff Beck. Sound output is excellent, especially the first 3 tracks on Side One stand out, the front sleeve is similar to Truth one and fits perfectly the music contained therein.
