    Fabulous player, and deservedly recogised. Who needs shredding when you have his taste?

      Out of all that cohort of 1960s players, Jeff took things the furthest. It didn't always work, but he was prepared to take that risk. A true pioneer.

      Jeff Beck was a true legend of the guitar. The only person who played and sounded like Jeff Beck was Jeff Beck. Completely unique, immediately recognizable, inspirational and influential.
      Rest In Peace, Jeff Beck

    In the triumvirate of Clapton, Page, & Beck, Jeff was always tops to me. Shit, he played with the GTO's.

      They were doing a lot of promotion of that new Beck/Depp album on SiriusXM just a couple months ago and I thought their covers of "Isolation" and "Venus & Furs" were fantastic. Some great guitar playing and production

    If any wants the high resolution (FLAC 24bit/88,2kHz) 2017 remaster of Jeff's 'Truth' album from Audio Fidelity.
