Streaming single from the new Jeff Beck album

I've received word that the release date for Jeff Beck's new live album Performing This Week... Live at Ronnie Scott's has been pushed back to November 25th. To hold you over in the meantime, check out this streaming version of the album's first single “Cause We’ve Ended as Lovers." Bassist Tal Wilkenfeld sounds awesome on this track... I can't wait to hear the whole album.
