On behalf of his family, it is with deep and profound sadness that we share the news of Jeff Beck’s passing. After suddenly contracting bacterial meningitis, he peacefully passed away yesterday. His family asks for privacy while they process this tremendous loss.

We are losing those who defined rock.

RIP

I may be old but I got to see all the great bands. The new jughead generations (Snowflakes and Zeros) don’t have any singers or musicians so they come up with “tribute” bands pretending to be the bands from our generation. What a joke.

Jeff Beck, album Truth.

The best, for me.

He didn’t get must recognition back in college days, but their loss.

Straight forward musical talent, for the sake of music.

Hands down one of the best ever. Period. A true artist, he never used a pick because it got in the way of his style which was his own. This is just awful news.

Just damn. I saw him for a Monsters of Rock tour. He blew Aerosmith off the stage.

He made playing guitar look easy. Rest in peace.

WIRED by Jeff Beck is one of my favorite all-time albums.

I was blessed to watch Jeff Beck perform LIVE from front row, dead center at the 2006 Tempe Music Festival.

I have a Jeff Beck concert T-shirt pinned to the wall of my practice studio.
