Jeff Beck`s Guitar Shop is the sixth studio album by guitarist Jeff Beck, released in October 1989 through Epic Records.[4] The album reached No. 49 on the U.S. Billboard 200[3] and won the award for Best Rock Instrumental Performance at the 1990 Grammys.[5][3] This was Beck`s second album to win that award, after Flash (1985).
Leer más"Stand on It" was released as a single and reached No. 35 on Billboard`s Mainstream Rock chart. "Sling Shot" was featured in the 1990 horror comedy film Gremlins 2: The New Batch. Several other tracks were used as part of the soundtrack for the 1990 South Atlantic Raiders episodes of the British comedy series The Comic Strip Presents.
In a further move from his previous jazz fusion stylings, Beck adopts a more straightforward instrumental rock approach on Guitar Shop, save for two tracks ("Guitar Shop" and "Day in the House") on which drummer Terry Bozzio provides quirky spoken vocals.
Following Beck`s death in 2023, guitarist Brian May described "Where Were You" as "possibly the most beautiful bit of guitar music ever recorded, probably alongside Jimi Hendrix`s `Little Wing`".[6]
