5.0 out of 5 stars The birth of heavy rock 20 Mar 2002
By A Customer
Format:Audio CD
With the teaming up of Jeff Beck on lead guitar, Rod Stewart on vocals, Ronnie Wood on bass and Tony Newman on drums to form the first Jeff Beck Group, the world witnessed the birth of a new genre in music: heavy metal. With Beck's blistering blues riffs and Stewarts gravelly hobo voice, this is where the SuperGroups first started. Originally issued as two seperate albums, Truth and Beckola are brought together here on one CD, and this is a must for any serious rock music fan. Admittedly, the sound lacks the dynamism and performance of, say Led Zepplin, but easily makes up for this in the musicianship, vocals and, not least, the songs. The first album to be released, Truth, features some classic blues rock songs such as I ain't Superstitious and Rock My Plimsoul, whilst at the same time effortlessly slipping into the more soulful Greensleeves and Ol' Man River. Sound dymanics and contrast are an important and oft overlooked ingrediant in the best of heavy rock. The arrangements, here, however, are full of light and dark corners and shade. This is a classic album which redefined rock music in the mid/late sixties. Beckola, on the other hand, goes one step further and offers something genuinely innovative and as such can be viewed as a landmark album from 1969. Nicky Hopkins joined the group on keyboards and Rod Stewart was at his zenith as a blues singer and Jeff Beck was rapidly developing into a serious heavy blues guitarist. Whatever music Beck had made before was only leading up to this beathtaking album. The accent, as the sleeve notes explain, is on heavy music. And it doesn't come any heavier than this. Plynth, Hangman's Knee and Rice Pudding are all intelligently arranged songs, avoiding the crash bang wallop school of heavy rock, prefering instead an air of control and suspense.... Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 stars Classic Rock 1 May 2012
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
I managed to get this album as a "double", as it also featured "Truth". Ronnie Wood kept playing tracks on his radio show and I've always been a Yardbirds and Small Faces fan. The album is fresh and you wouldn't think that it was recorded in the late 60s. It certainly was the birth of heavy metal, but it still retains a great blues feel. Why did Rod ever think of sing Soul? Well worth a listen and in my opinion a rock classic.

5.0 out of 5 stars oh yeah! 4 Sep 2004
By boris jimski - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
This is real blow-out-the-speakers music! If your neighbors don't complain about you already, after you get this they will for sure. Tremendous lineup, Jeff Beck (Yardbirds alum), Rod Stewart (Faces), Ron Wood (also Faces), Nick Hopkins (various '70's bands including Faces), and hey, you get to hear Stewart sing a cover of Ol' Man River with Beck on bass. I still have my vinyl from 25 years ago and wouldn't give it up for all the oil in Iraq.

5.0 out of 5 stars TWO MASTERPIECES ON ONE CD 28 Feb 2001
By Vincent B Leonberger - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
When I first bought Truth and then Beck-Ola, I couldn't believe how inventive this music was. I always thought Jeff Beck was every bit as creative as Jimi Hendrix and Eric Clapton. And when you add the extraordinary vocals by Rod Stewart you have great music. The music has a very live quality to it even though it was all made in the studio ( except Blues DeLuxe). I suppose that these albums eventually got the credit that they deserved. I can't believe that I am the first one to write a review on them though. Ron Wood plays some incredible 6 string bass also. Jeff Beck eventually went on to become a master fusion solo guitarist superstar ala John McLaughlin. And of course everyone knows how popular of a vocalist Rod Stewart became. Ron Wood went on to record with Rod on his first solo effert, "Gasoline Alley" followed by "Every Picture Tells a Story", which was a masterpiece, and then became the featured guitarist for the Rolling Stones. I must say that this group certainly lead the way with these two great albums. It amazes me that you can purchase both albums on one Cd for such a cheap price. BUY THIS CD!!
