It is and his BOG solo is breathtaking! He lifted the songs up, no doubt about that. I just don't find some of the tunes too exciting musically to start with. The musicians did an incredible job, but I don't think they were too involved in the development of the tunes.
And yeah, imagining Jeff Beck playing the guitar on some of the more recent songs definitely would've put them onto another level. THINFS might've been a really good album that way because the guitar work clearly is the weak link there.
