Jeff Beck RIP
Jeff Beck passed away today. Sigh.
He was my favorite guitarist of all time and his brilliance as a player and innovator on the instrument along with his music has provided me with a lifetime of musical happiness.
There will not be another like him any time soon. I think the best way for me to describe how I feel about Jeff is…..
When I was a younger rock guitar-living lad, I was all things Hendrix. I had all his albums of which I played ad nauseum, posters on the wall, most bootlegs, spent hours attempting to play his licks (Ha!), etc. and even to this day still “air guitar” left-handed.
With all due respect to Jimi, after I heard Jeff Beck’s cover of “Cause We’ve Ended as Lovers” (IMHO possibly the greatest studio guitar track I have ever heard by anyone), Hendrix didn’t seem so cool to me anymore. From that day on (I now have all of Beck’s albums of which I play ad nauseum, posters on the wall, most bootlegs, spend hours trying to play his licks (Ha! Again.), etc. etc. etc.) he was my top guy.
Although I still air guitar left-handed since I am so used to it. 😉 So, Jimi still has it over Beck in that realm.
Anyway...
Thank you Jeff for a lifetime of musical excellence.

Re: Jeff Beck RIP
I still listen to Jeff Beck on a regular basis. At home or in my car with Tidal. No one had such a control on tempo and delivery. I went to see him in Seattle at the Paramount theater when "Blow by Blow" came out just to hear "Cause we ended as lovers". A lasting memory was how simple and at ease he was playing on stage. I felt like he could have read a book while he played. What a master. His "Live at Ronny Scott's" video is just one of the best performances to watch. He will be missed.

Re: Jeff Beck RIP
Jeff Beck's Wired was one of the first LP's I bought. I was in Junior High, I bought the album on an older guy's recommendation. I had heard nothing like that before. A great talent. Many years of Lead Boots.

His playing on Roger Water's Amused to Death was phenomenal.

You should ask your dealer to bring the CH stuff he wants to sell you for home audition in your system. IMO there is no way to tell what will sound better in your system.
