Album Number Seventy-Eight “Beck-Ola” is the second studio album by English guitarist Jeff Beck, released in 1969 in the United Kingdom on Columbia Records and in the United States on #epicrecords . It peaked at No. 15 on the Billboard 200, and at No. 39 on the UK Albums Chart. The album's title puns on the name of the Rock-Ola jukebox company. My copy is on Epic Records - PE 26478. After the release of their previous album Truth, by the end of 1968 drummer #mickywaller was replaced by #tonynewman as #jeffbeck wanted to take the music in a heavier direction and he viewed Waller as more of a finesse drummer in the style of Motown. Pianist #nickyhopkins who had also played on Truth, was asked to join the band full-time for his work in the studio. #rockandroll #thesixties https://www.instagram.com/p/CRUAaLcrISw/?utm_medium=tumblr
