Jeff Beck's Guitar Shop is the sixth studio album by guitarist Jeff Beck, first released in Japan on 2 August 1989, before being released in the UK and US in October 1989 through Epic Records. The album reached No. 49 on the U.S. Billboard 200 and won the award for Best Rock Instrumental Performance at the 32nd Grammy Awards. This was Beck's second album to win that award, after Flash. "Stand on It" was released as a single and reached No. 35 on Billboard's Mainstream Rock chart. "Sling Shot" was featured in the 1990 horror comedy film Gremlins 2: The New Batch. Several other tracks were used as part of the soundtrack for the 1990 South Atlantic Raiders episodes of the British comedy series The Comic Strip Presents. In a move away from his previous jazz fusion stylings, Beck adopted a more straightforward instrumental rock approach on Guitar Shop, save for two tracks on which drummer Terry Bozzio provided quirky spoken vocals. Following Beck's death in 2023, guitarist Brian May described "Where Were You" as "possibly the most beautiful bit of guitar music ever recorded, probably alongside Jimi Hendrix's 'Little Wing'".
