RIP Jeff Beck

My son saw him in orange co.ca.with Johnny Depp just a month ago.  He said he was still great. Depp not so much. RIP

Played Jeff Beck and Jan Hammer Group - Live last night in his honour.

Jeff Beck introduced me to many musicians I love today. Imelda May, Joss Stone and Tal Wilkenfeld, just to name a few. I will be forever in his debt.

His "Truth" album is still amazing and has licks that run through my head daily over 50 years later. The first time I saw him was Beck, Bogert & Apice's last show ever (Honolulu, with a Les Paul), and later saw him a couple of times during the "modern" era. Man...it's  amazing a guitar player would invent a new personal guitar style mid career, which he did with his astonishing Strat technique...genius. He could burn it up with anything from Rockabilly to Benjamin Britton, utterly defying genres while presenting it all packed with soul and innovative beauty. I assumed he'd be around forever...damn...

Since you like Bozzio and in case you don't already know, check out Zappa's albums from 75 to 79, all featuring Bozzio. Some great albums in that period.
