David Bowie e-mailed me in the early hours with a brief report from Jeff Beck‘s gig at the Iridium Jazz Club in New York to commemorate what would have been Les Paul‘s 95th Birthday. Here’s what he had to say…

Just got back from seeing Jeff Beck at the Iridium Club in New York (tribute night to Les Paul) with Imelda May doing all the Mary Ford vocals on songs such as How High The Moon…classic stuff. They also did a blinding version of The Shangri-Las’ Remember (Walkin’ In The Sand) as a bonus.

That’s Jeff Beck with David last night for those of you not familiar with the Beck visage…I’ll leave you with a shot of Brian Setzer and David from the same event.
Brian must be wondering how Bowie now looks younger than him…perhaps the ex-Stray Cat should have bothered chasing mice around after all. Sorry, couldn’t resist…still got very cool hair though.
