That's kind of funny!!! Young Cats!!! The drummer is 60! Bass player is getting up there as well, keyboard player Matt, Jimmy & Jeff all played with Aquarium Rescue Unit, all pretty much the same age!
just killer all around, and I just got through listening to his Harrison cover Within You Without You. He has jumped into my top 10 guitarists who are still above ground
since i first heard of jimmy around 3 years ago he has been climbing into my top ten fave electric guitarist list,awesome player,even john mclaughlin rates him,he has the passion fire and grace all rolled into one
I can't get enough of this performance! The second guitar solo is incredible, and that keyboardist is absolutely on-point. I could listen to him jam for hours. I love how the crowd erupts too, there was a lot of energy at that show.
Have loved this track since the mid/late 80s! Jimmy is one of the best ppl to cover this! Just recently after decades I started listening to Sophie again!! Maybe it’s a sign…
Jeff told me he went to school with one of Jeff Beck's drummers, Michael Narada Walden (Berkley, I think). He remembers when Narada got the call to join Mahavishnu Orchestra!
I really miss Shawn and had to listen to some of his stuff just last week, what is exceptional is his cover of Mike Stern's Upside Downside. It is loaded here somewhere
God, I love this. They do a GREAT job at a very difficult song. I just wish I hadn't heard the real studio version from the master's so many times. I am nit picking at things that are done very well. I wonder if Jimmy could try it with a little less overdrive and finger-pick a little more soul into some of the slower passages. Well I'm in either way. Nice band I need to explore some more.
Agree 100%. The spirit of this is so on-point with the spirit in the original. Jimmy channels his "inner Jeff" on the melody choruses and goes off during the solo!
There's another version of this from 2010 from a gig in SC, also great. But, Jimmy was really in the zone here, this performance has all the good stuff. magic. The intervallic stuff phrases he sneaks in here, so slick.
Jimmys on fire, damn - his tone seems a bit more Eric Johnson-esque in this recording, that is to say a bit more hornlike than the harmonica style thing ..
Excellent guitar player. Drummer- chew some gum before play this song. Bassplayer- snatch his ass OFF the stage. Needs to go back and listen to the song and play with some kind of urgency instead of posing for the groupies. Sorry, I've played bass since the 60's and I'm just some old guy ranting.
The thing about this song is the drumming. The drummer does a good job for not being Walden. 😉 When I first heard this song on Wired, Walden's drumming carried the song with Jeff and Jan filling in. 😁
Incredible! JB would be proud.. Jimmy is a monster but geez look at these young cats playing with him. Awesome 🎸🎶

Came here to listen to Beck's masterpiece. Leaving with a goal of getting lessons from Jimmy. He NAILS Beck's vibrato. Scary good.

Yeah - it’s a sign of the strong, lifelong preference inherent in your information seeking pattern :D

So cool even Jeff beck does not play this song any more.
ya'll got big balls, and you all pulled it. I only wished I was there hearing it liv3.
Holy fuck.
Drop dead killer.
Just wow!
It isn't "Jeff Beck's" "Sophie" it is Narada Michael Walden's "Sophie"
Narada was the shit!
Sophie gets around.
Narada Michael Waldens tune from Wired. He also wrote Play With Me too, I believe.
Great great interpretation
Soo great😆👏👊👍👍👍👍
Jimmy knocked us out of our shoes that nite!!! Martyrs is an awesome room!!
His guitar tone reminds me of the late great Shawn Lane.
Shawn liked Jimmy a lot. He played with him too.
I really miss Shawn and had to listen to some of his stuff just last week, what is exceptional is his cover of Mike Stern's Upside Downside. It is loaded here somewhere

Another great cover Shawn did was Steve Morse's "The Introduction". Steve said Shawn did it better.
Interesting that no one pointed out that Jeff Sipe has drummed for both guitarists. Nice bit of continuity.

So Epic!!!!
Jimmy and the boys just ripped a new asshole into that tune. That was awesome.
Going to buy my HH Strat in 3,2,1...
One of my fave tunes off Wired...do it Jimmy Herring!!
Nice cover, good song, band sounds good, sounds good, I'd buy em a round
Awesome job on a tough tune!!
Jimmy's time feel during those runs... wow.
sheeessshhhhh that second solo lit my hair on fire
Other than the original lineup for this song, this is by far the best cover version I've heard.
Agree 100%. The spirit of this is so on-point with the spirit in the original. Jimmy channels his "inner Jeff" on the melody choruses and goes off during the solo!
Honestly I have never heard anyone try to cover JB
Listen to Narada's redo on the album "Rising Sun".That whole album still gives me goosebumps.
Nice work on the keys
excellent performance !!!
i'm jealous!!!!!!
Nobody phrases like Jimmy Herring ! ...

Good god! Nailed it!
Awesome!
Great job by everyone!
Flippin FANTASTIC!
Yes. Sophie!!!
I can hear wafts of Eric Johnson in his improvisations, especially in his second solo.
Steve Morse.
Nice
He uses a Blackface Super mounted into a head with a 4x10 cabinet. Cant argue with that tone....
yes, tremendous tone to die for
Agreed, the thing about Jimmy's tone I always notice is it's never harsh, even when he's playing very loud. It's always sweet and smooth sounding!
Jeff Sipe on drums, not sure of the bassist.
Neal fountain ... Monumentally great bassist .

L'Ok Jazz Do your homework (you don't even know their names!?) before commenting on the playing abilities of awesome musicians. Yeesh....
I think the bass player sounds great, maybe just needs to be a little louder.
