Oddly enough he is on the new Ozzy album and a tune came on sattelite radio and I could tell the lead was Beck. It was pretty incredible in context of the melody. So maybe I get it after all... he sort of has this slide feel to the way he uses the bar. Very unique anyway.

 
Oh man.
RIP
Blow by Blow is my favorite album. Only saw him once unfortunately.
 
I'm saddened deeply . Even if you're not influenced by him, you were most likely influenced by the ones Jeff Beck influenced .
I met him at the NAMM show in Anaheim, at the Seymour Duncan booth back in the 1980's.
A real Gentleman.... RIP 🙏 Jeff Beck .

I only saw Jeff once, in 2006, but had been a fan of his for a long time prior. My uncle was in town and we had both never seen Jeff live, so we went.

If you’re reading this thread, you probably already have a good idea of how much of a bad ass Jeff was. But that night, he played Angel (Footsteps), where he plays the slide behind the frets - and subsequently blew our minds. I’ll post a YouTube video for reference.

After the show, Jeff’s crew gave me his set-list, where it hangs today in my jam room.
