the void this man leaves behind

[@TuckFrump-r9h]

It's so unfair - the guy lead a clean and healthy life and was the steadiest in his field.

I can only think of two great Rock and Roll guitar players that were truly unique. Jimi and Jeff Beck.

I am a huge Jeff Beck fan. I got blessed to have seen him in 1982 in the A.R.M.s Tour. Action Research into Muscular Dystrophy. A benefit mini-tour for Ronnie Lane. Bassist for the Faces and countless other sessions in the 60's and 70's. Friend to many. On the bill? Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page. Joe Cocker Jimmy Page with a pre-incarnation The Firm w/Paul Rodgers on vocals. Clapton was great. Page was great. Beck was on fire 🔥 Lol. I knew that kinda gig was a one off miracle. I'll never forget it. Beautiful.

jeff was the goat. no question

[@tedcabana]

The greatest guitar player the modern world has ever known. Aside from Francisco Tárrega. Jeff owned his own sound, and style of playing. Many would try to copy Jeff. But no one could ever play the way he did. No One!

[@darkarts59]

Keith sounds hilarious.

This must have been posted on KZbin right after Jeff Beck’s death. I have always enjoyed watching a JB interview. He had no problem being highly critical of himself. He had mellowed out quite a bit by 1996. But in the 1970’s especially, he gave his unfiltered opinion on music but was even worse on other guitar players/ musicians. Jimmy Page, Eric Clapton, Rod Stewart, etc. No one was immune from his acid tongue. He was worse than Richie Blackmore.

Interesting interview from a remarkable guitar player. At the very end he says something about "crossing swords" with Robert Plant after wanting to go on tour with Page and Jones after recording "Beck's Bolero". "Beck's Bolero" was released in 1967, Led Zepp was formed in 1968 and Page had not yet met Plant as far as I know. So I am not sure what he means. Does anyone know?

[@OlafProt]

I just think he meant that Plant was more of a screamer than Rod. And that's what people wanted. And for Beck I think LedZep was what he was sort of aiming for and Page got it out there first. I don't think it was in any way a falling out or fight. Plant comments later in this segment how it was fascinating to watch Page and Beck fall out and be besties constantly over the years. They were all great friends.

[@JohnW-ey2xu]

@@OlafProt Thanks, I think you are correct.
