When Blow by Blow was first released in the UK I seeem to remember that the first track 'You Know What I Mean' was titled 'It doesn't Really Matter'. can anyone confirm this? Askilaun (talk) 10:26, 19 June 2011 (UTC) I have my UK release in my hand (EPIC 69117). Yes, the first track on side 1 is listed as "It Doesn't Really Matter" on the album label, but isn't mentioned at all on the sleeve.

Stevie Wonder[edit]

Although Stevie Wonder wrote two of the pieces, the CD does not credit him with playing on the album, so this credit in the article is incorrect unless someone has reliable info otherwise? Phosph (talk) 20:21, 28 May 2009 (UTC)phosph[reply]

First album under Jeff Beck?[edit]

The introduction says this is the first album released under his name alone. Isn't Truth listed as just Jeff Beck and not the Jeff Beck Group? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.46.125.194 (talk) 21:33, 6 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Actually it says (at least in the current version) that this is Beck's "first solo album". I maintain the even had it been the first album billed just to "Jeff Beck" rather than to "the Jeff Beck group", that would still be a practically a non-existent distinction. This was just as much a collaborative effort in terms of performance and writing as the previous records, and Beck was no less the leader of the group for the previous records. Ideally, a solo should album should have just one performer, like Bob Dylan's and Joni Mitchell's early albums. Failing that, it should at lest represent a clear and significant departure from a well-known and decidedly collaborative group structure, such as the Beatles's first few "solo albums" (one of which really was, literally, a solo album). Anyway, since this isn't even the first album billed to "Jeff Beck", as you point out, I'm deleting the misinformation. TheScotch (talk) 20:50, 20 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Beck came to hate it[edit]

How about some discussion about Beck eventually expressing his loathing for the album in an interview. Nicmart (talk) 06:18, 14 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
