^ Al pitrelli is a great Guitarist. Al is the lead Guitarist and musical director of the group / band, Trans-Siberian Orchestra. Al cites Jeff Beck as a guiding influence and has said, " When Jeff plays, I don't even want to pick up a guitar anymore." Such is the respect that Jeff also garnered as a Guitar player.
This may well be a forgotten cover performance by Jeff Beck.
Jeff is seen in this video playing Apache made famous by the equally famous " surf " band, the Ventures. Jeff also covers Sleepwalk by Santo and Johnny. Interestingly enough, Santo and Johnny had used a lap Steel guitar to get the unique sounds they did. Jeff does it with a six string Stratocaster and a hefty dose of reverb on the amp.
