What a loss.   Incredible talent.   Sad day indeed.

My wife (GF at the time) and I saw him twice, once with George Harrison and one other time but can’t remember when.  Before David Gilmour was hired to replace Syd Barrett in Pink Floyd, the group floated the idea of asking Jeff Beck to join them.  He will truly be missed, RIP.  

Very sad, for his family, his friends, and his followers and listeners. RIP Jeff, you will be remembered, always.

I saw him here in Phoenix a few years ago with Todd Rundgren, and Johnny Depp joined him on stage for a couple of songs. I saw him three times in all, once when he was with BBA, and he was always a solid performer. I think that he had a long and interesting life. That's something to celebrate even though he'll be missed.

We have roughly 8 billion people on our planet.   Read that an estimated 250k die from bacterial meningitis a year.   What are the odds of some being this gifted musically and then factor the odds again from being taken by this disease.   Hard to comprehend such things.

I remember Rod Stewart doing knee bends with the mike and trying to look interested during Beck’s half hour solos.  I thought Beck got more interesting as a musician later in his career.  He could sure play the slide

Unbelievable. Incredible talent. I really did not expect this news. I heard he died from meningitis. RIP Jeff Beck.

A sad day indeed. One of my first albums I ever bought was Blow by Blow and I'm sure I wore it out. RIP

I really enjoyed his performances on the crossroads concerts and also his live show at Ronnie Scott’s
