Noooooooo!!!!!!!!! He was always the healthiest too.
Best guitarist I ever saw live. Best guitarist I’ve ever heard. Period.
That just killed a person at my work last week.Bacterial meningitis. So glad I got to see him live as well.
Is the GOAT from a playing aspect. I mean take every guitar hero in the world over last 60 years. Every single one has people ( including Hendrix and Eddie Van Halen) who cover them very well at a high level. I’ve never heard anyone even close to knocking beck’s stuff. Except jimmy herring.This one hurts. Discovered him while at UConn in the mid-70's. Blow by Blow and Wired were go-to albums. In the GOAT conversation.

I was made aware of Jeff Beck by a good friend of mine in the same period. We were barely 20 and we used to rent a cottage at Misquamicut for a week during the summer (for $160 a week) and played the heck out of those albums during that period. "Constipatated Duck" and "Because We Ended As Lovers" among those. His album "Truth" with Rod Stewart is another good listen. I was fortunate to see him a few times at Foxwoods. Great performer. RIP Jeff.This one hurts. Discovered him while at UConn in the mid-70's. Blow by Blow and Wired were go-to albums. In the GOAT conversation.
To your point August, here is a link from Rick Beato who described Beck as being "one of one" and uncopiable. BB King stated that he didn't have those notes on his guitar.Is the GOAT from a playing aspect. I mean take every guitar hero in the world over last 60 years.
