Jeff Beck's Lifestyle ★ 2021

[@MsRedsphere]

Rest in Peace Jeff Beck. You will be remembered by your fans for your music and your family and friends with love and respect.

[@cjm3122]

Jeff, in my view, is the BEST all time guitarist past or present. AND I think, BY FAR. Who at age 77 can do what he does? Long live Jeff Beck.

[@rickjohnson831]

While I too love Jeff, there is another brilliant guitarist from the 60s. Phil Keaggy. I consider both the best of the best.

[@gwensheder1604]

He is my favorite guitarist. I love his style. Beck is innovative.

[@WolfgangvonBoyen]

I observe by looking at his hand while playing that the whole hand shapes the tone, the thumb is just the boss. He uses the hollow of his palm as a second resonance body and then there is his soul, which hears exactly how high or low he pulls and intones the notes. He slides a lot, or half-slides, and I notice so much more about his game and the individual techniques that he has formed. This has always fascinated me about the guitar, because it is an instrument that allows infinite playing styles. Jeff has a way of playing where you have to tinker for a long time to crack all the tricks. Jeff will go somewhere and all guitarists in our world know that the guitar leads the musician to his individuality when the musician understands the guitar and lets it go freely. The guitar is part of the bread and the musician fills it with life and together they awaken food for the soul. Big thanks to the freedom spirit of Jeff Beck and the music.

Jeff Beck is the coolest guitarist on the planet.

[@GordonZJ]

Absolutely!!!

[@samwalton4598]

I’ve followed Becks career my whole life and admired his genius for making a guitar produce sounds uncharacteristic but they fit the tune. As well I love the fact he is a gear head at heart. And likes getting his hands dirty and working on his cars. A cool dude and a talented hard working musician. 👍

[@1952FMS]

an extremely gifted musician who knows what he wants, able to pick the musicians to surround himself with, change his style and constantly grow. he hasn't sold out to be commercially successful but those who know great music understand. Jeff has his own genre and i love him dearly.

[@TONY_FEZ]

Whatever he is worth, its not enough. By far the best guitar player in the world.

He is the best.

[@harryvandenberg2867]

Hey's a great guitar player, but by far the best in the world, what nonsons. There is not a single musician who can be said to be the best in the world. You have many styles of playing the guitar. One musician is very good in a certain style and the other in something completely different. You can't compare him at all with for example with a big star in the flamingo playing guitar.

[@jackb348]

There is no “best”. Beck is definitely one of the greats but there are so many others...Hendrix, Rhoads, EVH... Rankings are more a popularity contest than anything else. As Steve Vai once put it, he could name 10 people that are utterly amazing, but it was very doubtful if anyone had ever heard of them.

[@TheHumbuckerboy]

@@jackb348 I actually agree with what you are saying 😃 However Jeff is definitely in the mix due to his wonderful catalogue 😃 His peers certainly rate him extremely highly !

[@euanelliott3613]

Apparently he was inspired to play jazz/rock fusion by Tommy Bolin who played on Billy Cobhams Spectrum, and Mind Transplant by Alphonse Mouzon.

[@TheHumbuckerboy]

@@euanelliott3613 Billy Cobham played in the ground-breaking Mahavishnu Orchestra with a guy called John McLaughlin on guitar and It was McLaughlin who inspired Jeff to play jazz rock.

[@zyzzyvacation]

Organic player that he is, Jeff never uses a pick and avoids the use of pedals except where absolutely necessary. He's a heavy user of the whammy bar in conjunction with finger-rolling his Strat volume and tone control knobs. A little known fact is that friend Stevie Wonder originally wrote "Superstition" for Jeff while he was playing session guitar on Stevie's 1973 album "Talking Book." Stevie ended up recording it himself and scored a #1 hit with the song 🖐😎

[@Deagledrumzz]

To the fans that have followed Beck throughout his career, of the three BIGGEES of the English guitar scene, he was the only one that always took the guitar to another level. Clapton when he was with Cream was basically at that time, music wise, the top man, Page during Zeppelin days became the most popular guitarist perhaps of all time, not to mention probably the richest. As far as music, only Hendrix in those days was the kind of innovator Beck was, and with fusions undisputed king John Mcglauglin, Beck new he had to go further than before. When Beck heard, Mcglauglin, Dimeola, he knew then, that there might be a music that would challenge him to another incredible level. With Van Halen changing the limits of guitar Beck now had musicians pushing the limits like what he and Hendrix did years before.In the mean time he can go back and forth from Rock ,to blues, fusion to funk, and he can still make that guitar BEG for mercy unlike anyone. This man is a true muso always expanding his art.And his collaborations with others are gems that cannot be forgotten about. Not to mention he has had the greatest drummers in his groups Phillips, Appice, Caliuta,Bozzio, since he formed his own bands.VIVA Jeff Beck!!!

[@stratcat4450]

You nailed it. Not to mention him doing the rockabilly thing probably just for the love of its pureness. Also the little hes played live with john McLaughlin to me is far more innovative than John's collaboration with one trick santana.

Like to say something about Jeff Beck....he was the only one who has a closed and speciall friendship with Jimi Hendrix and..,it was Jeff Beck who asking Jimi for go to Woodstock and play a gig with Carlos Santana band....and btw,Jeff Beck did jam with Chick Corea and Billy Cobham in new york what brings him to the idea of making a jazzy sound (jazz rock) which he did later on stage...Jeff started pop music with the yarbirds,but love to play yazz rock at later years...he has an awesome and unique special sound on his guitar what makes him so different from other guitar players...Jeff Beck and Allan Holdsworth are both my inspiration at that time of my life as a young guitarist..we all mis...the great Jeff Beck,he will be remembered ...r.i.p 🙏🙏🙏❤🎸
