Jeff Beck

Shocked and saddened. He was a legend. It seems to have been a sudden illness as he was an active 78.

R.I.P.

A proper legend of the guitar, and a special talent. I've been a fan since forever ago. RIP Jeff.

When I saw Jimmy Page at the Hay Festival last year he spoke very fondly of Jeff Beck and their childhood friendship.

A completely unique voice on guitar. I genuinely cannot think of anyone else who played like him. What a loss. RIP Jeff.

Cros is the second "giant" to go this year, and we're not even 3/4 of the way through January yet.
