Saw him on his recent tour, and I'm still shaking my head in disbelief at his playing.
This was a definite highlight (taken from the Live At Ronnie Scott's DVD)

Ah sweet, with Tal Wilkenfeld and Vinnie Colaiuta too? Seriously, one of my favourite rhythm sections getting about at the moment.
'As long as there's, you know, sex and drugs, I can do without the rock and roll.'
No Wilkenfeld/Colaiuta this time around, but Rhonda Smith on bass and a drummer whose name I didn't catch because Jeff Beck mumbles on stage...
Needless to say, the rhythm section were superb. I fell in love with Rhonda all over again....
