.
On Monday Jeff Beck Expands Live At Ronnie Scott's For Reissue was a top story. Here is the recap: (Classic Rock) Jeff Beck is to release an expanded version of his 2007 live package recorded at Ronnie Scott's. The 2CD/3LP Performing This Week... Live At Ronnie Scott's - Special Edition is issued on June 1 via Eagle Rock and delivers full audio from the London shows for the first time, adding a pair of tracks with guest Eric Clapton as well as the full seven-song set with the rhythm and blues revival outfit The Big Town Playboys - previously only available on the 2009 companion Blu-ray release.

Guest appearances by Joss Stone and Imogen Heap are also featured, as they were on the original package, which won Beck a 2009 Grammy Award for Best Instrumental Rock performance for his version of The Beatles classic A Day In The Life.

Following the five-night run, Beck explained how he approached preparing a setlist for such an intimate venue. Beck said: "It was slightly modified from the big stage, in terms of length. We edited out some long-winded solos or extended them if they were too short, but mostly we just left out what we felt wasn't appropriate for Ronnie's." Read more including the tracklisting - here.
