That night I experienced the greatest guitar player I had ever heard.

Jeff Beck

Below, more tributes to Jeff Beck.

I was so saddened to hear that Jeff Beck had died.

What a terrible loss for his family, friends & his many fans.

He set a very high bar for all of us who followed.

His legend will live on.The Edge.

RIP Jeff Beck “He was inimitable, irreplaceable - the absolute pinnacle of guitar playing.”

  • Brian May"A totally unique and magical talent."

Im sending much sympathy to Sandra, his family, and all who loved him.

Heres a clip of a video I did with him in 85.

We wrote Shapes of Things together and Jeff had a blank 16 bars for a solo.

He not only played an extraordinary solo, but changed the nature of guitar playing ever after.
