Sad, sad day.

He was quite underrated among the general population. He just jammed with Johnny Depp recently.

RIP.

RIP. Not a fan, but he did influence some players I like.

This one certainly sucks. Still at the top of his game at 78.

Sad news, indeed.

I had the chance to photograph him back in May of 2015 when he opened for ZZ Top. The guy was phenomenal...

I'm just tore up. It was all so sudden. I met Jeff back stage in 1975 at the Stanley Theater when he and McLaughlin were touring together, and we've stayed in contact ever since. Jeff was one of the true pioneers of fuzz guitar and the electronification of rock guitar. I don't know what else to say. My heart goes out to Sandra.

Sad news. He was a wonderful guitarist. He could play in many different genres. He played rock, jazz, and blues equally well. RIP, Mr. Beck.

One of the best.

Me too. I loved his music back in the 70s and 80s. This was one of his best tunes and album.

 

[DudleySmith]

His jazz stuff was his best, and the least popular, ironically.

Beck's bolero always gave me eargasms as a teenager.

RIP
