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.

As the Righteous Brothers once sang,

“If you believe in forever,
Then life is just a one-night stand.
If there’s a rock and roll heaven,
Well you know they’ve got a hell of a band, band, band.”

He’d blow almost anyone off the stage. I’m sorry I never got to see him.

I feel very mortal tonight.

As a classical music fanatic and opera lover, this one is my favorite.

Rhythm guitar by Jimmy Page and with John Paul Jones on bass, Keith Moon on drums, and Nicky Hopkins on keyboards. Won’t see a combination like that again short of Heaven.

I saw Beck and Santana at SPAC years ago. I went on a whim with a friend. We got lawn tickets and were right on the rail of the amphitheater. My friend disappeared after Beck played and during the intermission a guy walked right out of the seats and handed me two 4th row center orchestra seats. I couldn’t find my friend but damn if I wasn’t going to use those tickets. One of the most memorable concerts of my life. I could have stood up and shaken Carlos’ hand.

RIP Jeff Beck, I have many listening hours of your great work.

Incredibly, it seems Keith Richards will outlive them all.

Well, I’ll be sad when Keith goes, too.

That would have been great! I saw Santana in 1977 or 78, and my friends and I were leaning on the stage.

Now I regret not going to see him and Depp in November here in Reno. I had a chance to go but decided to work instead.

Saw him in Dallas many years ago. Blow by Blow got me through my teen years.
