Title: RIP Jeff Beck Post by: rn57 on January 11, 2023, 02:34:14 PM From Mike Stax of the Ugly Things zine the sad news that a sudden attack of meningitis has taken Jeff Beck. Whether or not you think his tour with Brian was an interesting experiment or a mismatch or maybe even a success, no denying the enormous degree to which he expanded the possibilities of the electric guitar. I stood 15 feet from him at his Louisville show in ‘76 and the word phenomenal is what comes to mind all these years later. RIP

I have the "All the King's Men" album by Scotty Moore and D.J. Fontana, which features Beck on one track (also Ron Wood): Jeff Beck w/ All The King's Men - Unsung Heroes (1997) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aM7P-yU6alA Title: Re: RIP Jeff Beck Post by: Aum Bop Diddit on January 19, 2023, 05:22:36 PM Brilliant guitar player who played when and what he wanted and continued to get better. Amazing. Notwithstanding some remarks about him referencing his time with Brian, seemed like a down to earth bloke who didn't succumb to the rock star trip BS.
