"Hammerhead" is the second track from Jeff Beck's 2010 album Emotion & Commotion. The instrumental track features Beck on guitar, Jason Rebello on keyboards, Tal Wilkenfeld on bass guitar and Alessia Mattalia on drums. It was written by Beck and Rebello and was produced by Steve Lipson. It won the 2011 Grammy Award for Best Rock Instrumental Performance.
Overview
Beck credited composer Jan Hammer for the inspiration for the track.[1] Whereas much of Emotion & Commotion contains orchestral accompaniment,[2] "Hammerhead" is an uptempo rock track reminiscent of Beck's work with The Yardbirds[3] and his 1974 album Blow by Blow.[4] He employs wah-wah pedal and whammy bar effects on his guitar and Wilkenfeld’s bass is distorted.[5]
