Jeff Beck – The Artist
Geoffrey Arnold Beck (1944 – 2023) was an English guitarist. He rose to prominence as a member of the rock band the Yardbirds, and afterwards founded and fronted the Jeff Beck Group and Beck, Bogert & Appice. In 1975, he switched to an instrumental style with focus on an innovative sound, and his releases spanned genres and styles ranging from blues rock, hard rock, jazz fusion and a blend of guitar-rock and electronica.
Hi Ho Silver Lining – The Song
‘Hi Ho Silver Lining‘ is a rock song, written by American songwriters Scott English and Larry Weiss and first released as a single in March 1967 by English band the Attack, then a few days later by Jeff Beck. The Attack’s version failed to chart, while Beck’s recording reached the top 20 of the singles chart in his native Britain in both 1967 and 1972, becoming his biggest solo hit. Songwriters English and Weiss started writing a song together, with a chorus of “Hi ho silver lining”, but no verses. When producer Mickie Most heard their early version, he suggested that it would be a hit and persuaded English to complete the lyrics. According to writer and musician Bob Stanley, English wanted to record a finished version of the song himself, so decided to deter Most by writing “the most unusable, stupid lyric he could think up, about flies in pea soup and beach umbrellas”. To English’s chagrin, Most liked the song, and had Jeff Beck record it. Beck’s version is popular with fans of numerous football clubs in the United Kingdom, where it is often chanted by spectators. During the chorus, the words ‘silver lining’ are usually replaced with the name of the football club in question.
The Football Shirt – The Shape
This record is modelled into the silhouette of a short sleeved football shirt which is part of the footballers kit. In association football, kit (also referred to as a strip or uniform) is the standard equipment and attire worn by players. The sport’s rules specify the minimum kit which a player must use, and also prohibit the use of anything that is dangerous to either the player or another participant. Individual competitions may stipulate further restrictions, such as regulating the size of logos displayed on shirts and stating that, in the event of a match between teams with identical or similar colours, the away team must change to different coloured attire.
