Have to say I'm very glad "Danny Boy" didn't make the album.
It's only my opinion, and I'm sure many others here will disagree... but I'm with this. One thing I love about Brian's stuff is that it rocks... without actually BEING rock most of the time. I've never liked widdly-widdly guitar acrobatics (if I never hear Bluebirds Over The Mountain again, it will be too soon), and Beck's guitar shapes, while clearly the product of someone who has great skill with his instrument, just get in the way of a beautiful melody as far as I'm concerned.
I was a J Beck doubter from the moment I heard he was working with Brian, but quietly hoped it might be one of those collaborations that ends up being more than the sum of its parts. It seems that it did not, especially based on this performance from the Fallon show. For me, it doesn't really bring anything to the song Danny Boy that I find interesting, though as I keep saying, that's just my opinion.
And who knows, perhaps all the 'Jeff Beck is disgruntled' stuff we've been getting of late is just a smokescreen, and there's a fabulous multi-part suite on NPP featuring Mr Beck throughout...? I kind of doubt it, but if so, I will *happily* eat these words with a fork and spoon...!

Can't find the exact link, it's buried in the very long thread we had on the Beck interview..
Here's the quote
"He didn't even talk to me when we took promotional photos for his Facebook page. It was very weird. His people told me he would be pointing at me and I could shrug or whatever. We took that photo and Brian left the studio immediately after that. He needs help, seriously. I think there was another picture where he's like Phew, what a musician! and I'm standing next to him, miming chords. Brian had one of his muscled handlers there, pretending to write something down, so I wouldn't engage in conversation. There's something wrong with him."
Jeff Beck is a genuine asshole..
I hope nothing of his makes it on to the album.

Why? I don't get it. The way Beck describes the staging of the photo shoot does sound like it must've been an uncomfortable situation for him. "There's something wrong with him" might not be the nicest way to address the strangeness of the situation but it all sounds quite reasonable at least from his point of view.

This Jeff Beck stuff is old news, yeah?
Anyway, no matter how unseemly some of the post-collaboration quotes may seem; no matter any amount of he/he said stuff, bad feelings, etc., a good recording is a good recording.
And no matter how reticent I personally was about a potential team-up between Jeff Beck and Brian Wilson (I didn't think they'd mesh well at all), I cannot deny that I found that Jimmy Fallon clip to be beautiful and musically engrossing.
I can't say that I care all that much about any history of bad blood between the principals (I
am
on a
Beach Boys
forum, after all); I care about results.

Congrats Lowbacca, you successfully duped Shady,
I still don't like a lot of what Jeff said about Brian, so my opinion hasn't changed.

What he said did cause a furor, we had a few very long threads about his comments.

I was here. I know Beck's actual comments caused discussion. But comments made in jest by another poster, put in Beck's voice, didn't cause a ruckus because they weren't real.

Uh. I'd never use yellow text. You just made my text yellow when quoting me, which is a case of flagrant misrepresentation. BAN.

Yeah... strangely one thing Beck and Brian both have in common is they "tell it like it is". Brian just says whatever he thinks. Jeff just says whatever he thinks.
This is what happens when personality disorders clash...
