November 17th, 2010 | No Comments

TRIBUTE CONCERT OUT ON DVD FEB. 22; TOUR STARTS MARCH 24; SPECIAL AIRS NOV.

Jeff Beck

Jeff Beck paid fitting
tribute to Les Paul last
summer, celebrating what would have been the pioneering guitarist’s 95th birthday
by playing his friend and mentor’s music, along with classic tunes from the era, in the same Times Square nightclub
that Paul played every Monday for 14 years before his death in August 2009.

Sponsored by Gibson Guitar and billed as Â“A Celebration of Les Paul,Â” Beck was joined by The Imelda May Band at the Iridium Jazz
Club in June 2010. The two-time Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee mesmerized the star-studded audience with
a tour de force performance of classics Paul recorded with Mary Ford, Â“How High The Moon,Â” Â“Vaya Con DiosÂ” and
Â“Mockin’ Bird Hill,Â” along with such rock and roll standards as Â“Twenty Flight RockÂ” and Â“Walking In The Sand.Â”

For those left off the guest list, Eagle Rock Entertainment and ATCO will offer this one of a kind performance to
purchase. Rock and Roll Party to Honor Les Paul will be available on DVD and CD February 22. A
PBS special of the event, Jeff Beck Honors Les Paul, is set to premiere on November 27 and air throughout
December. Check local listings for times.

Following these releases, Beck will take the Â“Rock And Roll PartyÂ” on the road for a short U.S. tour. Beck will once
again be backed by The Imelda May Band and its enchanting singer Imelda May, who joined Beck on stage
at the 2010 GrammyÂ® Awards for a spot-on rendition of Paul’s Â“How High The Moon.Â” Further details about tickets
will be announced in the coming weeks.

Walking Through 40 Years of Hard Disk Drive History

September 25th, 2009 | No Comments

IDEMA, the International Disk Drive and Materials Association, hosted its annual DISKCON conference in Santa Clara, Calif., Sept. 23 and 24. Included as a bonus on the show floor was a literal walk down memory lane for older engineers. This was a display of history-making hard drives, staged by longtime industry analyst and consultant Jim Porter. Many veteran engineers gazed at the artifacts with almost loving eyes: I spent about a year of my life working on that one, said one industry veteran. Another commented that another model was a bear–but we got the job done. No matter what, it took many millions of man-hours to develop these machines that we take so much for granted today. What follows is a chronological walk through history, remembering a number of the most important advances in HHD history. Perhaps you’ll see one you worked on yourself. Enjoy!By Chris Preimesberger
