Jeff Beck Group – 'Shapes of Things' Performance at Fillmore East, New York

Venue: Fillmore East Location: New York, NY, United States Date: October 18, 1968

On October 18, 1968, the Jeff Beck Group was at a pivotal point in their career, showcasing their innovative sound at the Fillmore East in New York. This live performance corresponds closely with the release of their debut album, "Truth," which had hit the shelves just months earlier in July 1968. "Truth" featured groundbreaking blends of blues, rock, and psychedelia, and it played a crucial role in shaping the sound of hard rock to come. Notably, this album included the track "Shapes of Things," which the band performed during the Fillmore East recording. The Jeff Beck Group was notable for its lineup, including vocalist Rod Stewart and guitarist Jeff Beck, both of whom would go on to have illustrious careers. The performance not only highlighted the band's dynamic stage presence and musical prowess but also captured the burgeoning live music scene of the late 1960s.
