About the author
Jeff Beck
54 books4 followersGeoffrey Arnold ("Jeff") Beck was an English rock guitarist. He was one of three noted guitarists — the others being Eric Clapton and Jimmy Page — to have recorded with the band The Yardbirds. Beck ranked in the top five of Rolling Stone and other magazine's list of 100 greatest guitarists. He was often called a "guitarist's guitarist". Rolling Stone described him as "one of the most influential lead guitarists in rock".
Beck has never attained the sustained commercial success of his fellow Yardbirds guitarists, though the band, along with Beck, were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1992. Jeff Beck wise-cracked at the ceremony stating:
“ Someone told me I should be proud tonight...But I'm not, because they kicked me out. Fuck them! (Laughs)... ”
Much of his output had been instrumental, and his releases had spanned genres, ranging from blues-rock, heavy metal, jazz fusion and a blend of guitar-rock and electronica. This versatility had made it difficult for Beck to establish and maintain a broad following.
Nevertheless, Beck had gained wide critical acclaim for his work as a guitarist. Beck was the winner of eight Grammy awards, the first being Best Rock Instrumental Performance for "Escape" from the album Flash at the 1986 Grammys. - Wikipedia
Away from the stage, Beck was an avid collector of American-style hot rods. Hot rods are a recurring theme in many of his more recent albums.
