This is terrible news, Rest In Peace.

His contribution on Roger Waters Amused to death is probably one of my favorite guitar moments ever. RIP!
| | |
Yes! Beck took Amused to Death to the next level! A total master of bending strings, like none other. My dad took me to a Jeff Beck/Santana concert when I was 11 years old in '96. So seeing Beck was my first concert ever. Got to see him once again with Brian Wilson in '13, again with my dad. Legend! RIP

Rest in peace.

Words can't express how much of a loss to music this is. One of the very best to ever do it, if you haven't watched Live At Ronnie Scott's you need to get on that

Mega bummer, legend.

"if you haven't watched Live At Ronnie Scott's you need to get on that"
Great rec, Strizz.

RIP!
Ashamed to say I haven't really gotten too familiar with Jeff Beck yet but I've heard some stuff here and there. Based on the Pork Pie video here I can definitely tell that I've been missing out. Absolutely beautiful playing there. I love it

This one hurts me bad. Go to You Toob now and listen to/watch “Where Were You” live from Ronnie Scott’s.
Thanks for the music, Sir. I’ll miss you greatly.
