Jeff was 74 when this was recorded! Let that sink in. Growing musically every second, thrilling us and amazing us along the way. He was the greatest ever to play. Rest in peace fine sir
When the masters play, one can only shut up, listen , and learn. Speechless to witness the chemistry of these 2 when playing together. A rare treat. If only there would be more of this......

Something tells me you never shut up.
As soon as Jan touches the keys, THERE IS THAT SOUND. Saw Mr. Hammer back in the old Mahavishnu days. He pushed that band to another level and it was never the same after he left. As great as Chick or Barry Miles or any of those guys were, Jan is just in another league. My absolute favorite jazz/fusion keyboardist.

Jeff and Jan are a perfect match! The live album in the 70s with them sparing together is a classic.

Everything here is incredible. What an assemblage of talent. I can't believe Jeff Beck is gone. RIP to the best ever.
At the 2:44 through 2:48 time mark, that Old fellow geezer Beck flips the drummer a complimentary bird and a Mad Hatter grin. Damn I enjoy being as old as dirt. Our generation rocked the walls until they crumbled. That young drummer is tight and in the groove. Jan? What more does one need to say. The best synth leads on the block, from day one. This Czech can bounce.

Jan Hammer's dad was a groomsman in my father in law's wedding in communist Czechoslovakia. Both doctors. They would talk about what an amazing musician Jan was as a young teen. Fortunately when Czechoslovakia briefly opened up in 1968 Jan was able to get out. The rest is rock history.
No one can write these "action" songs like Jan Hammer!!! You can hear how much influence he had on Jeff Becks guitar playing. Even Miami Vice theme song is the coolest composition!
I can watch Jeff Beck turn notes into golden nuggets for hours on end - and I often do. RIP you fucking amazing world talent.
At times I got to really watch the screen to see if it is really the guitar as the tone is so different - no one can pull different voices out of the guitar as Jeff Beck , he is so unusual and a pleasure to watch

A lot of doubling between the synth and guitar happening throughout. Hammer is a master of guitar-style licks. Probably the best ever. His apparently idle left hand is always subtly busy manipulating the pitch-bend and modulation controls to closely emulate the guitar stylings.
Folks, this tune is on Jeff Beck's There and Back album and advise you to check the entire album out. Jan and Jeff play so well together and love when they trade 4's, 8's & 16's, etc. ideas off each other.
All Hail the grand master of cool ness and guitar sweetness
A marriage made in Heaven. The soundtrack of my youth. So much to love, I never tire of these two legendary geniuses jamming with 🔥.
So, some guy walks out of the bowling alley across the street and starts jamming with Jeff Beck... There & Back was the first Jeff Beck LP I bought back in the 1980. I've loved Jan Hammer's playing since first "discovering" him on that album. Pure genius.

And for MANY years, I thought Simon Phillips played drums on Star Cycle. I was wrong, it was Jan! WTF!? LOVE IT STILL.
Jeff Beck was another selfless musician who surrounded himself with fantastic musicians in their own right. Great drummers, bass players, other guitarists and keyboard players. Just a pleasure watching him interact with others on stage.

Bacterial infection ? Wtf Jeff
My eyes are filling up with tears watching & at the end, I am smiling. Jeff was so happy, jamming his heart out, the interaction with Jan is magical, the awesome band. I was fortunate to be at this show with my sister. We have seen Jeff 6 times together & walked out in awe of Jeff & his band every time. We are heartbroken over the loss of Jeff. Still can’t believe we won’t see or hear him again 😔💔❤️
I'm giddy....that was SENSATIONAL!!! Man, I never thought I'd hear the two of them play Star Cycle again. I listened to this all the time in the early and mid 80's. Jeff Beck is so on another level.....and gets better all the time...and he is what 75?
I'm 2 years late to this party!! Glad I finally showed up!!
RIP Jeff Beck from Italy.
Wish I was there .. . .
The magic between the two is Still there.
More impressed each time I watch.
How can this not have 1M views, at least? My gawd...

I was wandering around my favourite record store in 1980 and they were playing "There and Back". I bought it on the spot. Star Cycle on the album has Jan on drums, and he was outstanding. Of course Jeff was too. This live performance is great, but the album performance is "tight, tight, tight!!!"
Jeff Beck with the Jan Hammer Group Live became part of my forever-playlist /life-soundtrack the very first time I heard it back in the 70's.. Gave the original vinyl to my daughter last year(also a fan). She's 23, so an album is a kind of cool antique thing, It's a bit scratchy. I'm happy to say she plays the crap out of it. Anyway- still dig it, always will! Great music for the journey. Much gratitude to Jan Hammer and Jeff Beck. Another kick ass group of musos as always!
Jan Hammer as well as Jeff Beck still had it in 2016!!

Jan Hammer has had a great career spanning back into the 70's starting with the Mahavishnu Orchestra. Jan has played with the best in the world and collaborated with Jeff Beck, Neal Schon, Stanley Clark, to name a few, plus doing the music for Miami Vice. Jan Hammer is well known in the music industry. He has one problem. He's afraid of flying which has hindered him from touring a lot with a lot of bands including his own.. Jeff Beck has always spoken highly of Jan, saying that he influences his own playing. Checkout his website - pretty cool.

Thank you Jeff Beck and Jan Hammer for all you gave the world, saw these two at the Orpheum in Boston around '77 incredible show, of course Jan was on a Moog at the time, maybe why he blacks out the Korg name, don't get them free why advertise the brand!

Great tune, great performance, and the mix is excellent. And my god, Carmen Vandenberg is just so beautiful! And she plays the instrument well too!
This was used as the theme tune to the brilliant U.K. music show “The Tube” back in the 80’s!

People who write off Frank Zappa as nothing more than comedy music don't realize the wealth of serious instrumental music in his discography, at least half his output is instrumental, and the sudden proliferation of alternate arrangements is truly mesmerizing, and I think FZ himself would truly approve of this arrangement
Mr.Jeff Beck, give it up for the one and only , most influential Guitarist of our time, Jeff Shifts gears in his Hot Rods , like doing Burn Outs on the strings of a Strat.. and tuned upside down to Butte . Amazing, unbelievably Amazing Thank you for the Videos For Ever Missed , Speechless, Heart felt Sorrow , to the Family and Friends , R.I.P.🌹✝️ Mr. Jeff Beck Dearly Missed , Never forgotten ✝️
The pure joy on Jan and Jeff's faces is awesome! I was thankful to see Jeff a number of times. I wish could have seen Jan too. And that song, every time I watch this video, gives me the chills! Great band too! Jonathan kicked ass on the Drums. I miss Jeff. ♥

BadAss keyboards from the Jan....
The more I watch & listen to this, the more I belleve that if it doesn't double your heart rate and send chills down your spine there's a high likelihood that you're dead. It's even better in the MP3 I have: Rhonda's bass is further forward, and the dynamics are much better.
Finesse and power

I'm learning guitar and I've loved Jeff since the 70s. He's got the most incredible right hand. It sets him apart.
Saw Jan every time he came to Detroit with all the groups- all supremely focused and transcendental!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A very lot are technically way better - J-Beck was/is always overrated. 50%+ of his performances based on using all kinds equipment technic/special noisy sounds/effects and top mixing. Rest is common oldschool blues/rock-scales and chords, not very progressive. He always takes top guest musicans with better musical skills than he has, most songs are old covers so you can`t do antything wrong or take a risk. But have to say he is/was a very good bandleader and knows how to arrange old stuff and modernize it.
