Dadrian Posted January 12, 2023 Report Share Posted January 12, 2023 This man will always be my favorite guitarist. There will absolutely never be another Jeff Beck. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/01/11/arts/music/jeff-beck-dead.html Live with Jan Hammer in 1985: 4 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kladdagh Posted January 12, 2023 Report Share Posted January 12, 2023 When I woke up this morning, I had that sad news. Damn ... R.I.P. Jeff Beck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Ferrariman Posted January 12, 2023 Administrators Report Share Posted January 12, 2023 His "Wired" album will always be my favorite. That and his collaborations with Jan Hammer, both on "Wired" and with Jan's group, are excellent! Definitely among, if not THE best, guitar players in the world.

Dadrian Posted January 12, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2023 I was messaging with Jan’s son Paul, and he said Jan was taking it very hard, as you can imagine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt5 Posted January 12, 2023 Report Share Posted January 12, 2023 (edited) Very sad news , such a talented guitarist, I loved watching him and hearing him play. A good friend of Jan Hammer and frequent collaborator. Jan Hammer played with Jeff Beck at the Holllywood Bowl in 2016. Jeff also promoted JHs 2018 album “Seasons” Pt.1 on his social media saying it was great work. Rip.

Matt5 Posted January 18, 2023 Report Share Posted January 18, 2023 (edited) From 1980. Written by Jan Hammer, performed by Jeff Beck with JH on keyboards and drums. Jan would go on to record this himself on his own fine “Snapshots” album in 1989. Edited January 18, 2023 by Matt5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dadrian Posted January 19, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2023 Wow @Matt5! I forgot all about this! The 1989 version is one of JH favorites! This incredible, too! Thanks so much for sharing here—perfect! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt5 Posted April 17, 2023 Report Share Posted April 17, 2023 (edited) There is a star studded tribute to Jeff Beck in London from Eric Clapton and Friends at the Royal Albert Hall venue I read in May organised by Eric Clapton and Johnny Depp with both Clapton and Depp performing with the Hollywood Vampires and Rod Stewart — no mention of Jan yet. https://whereseric.com/eric-clapton-news/303-ronnie-wood-joe-perry-added-to-tribute-to-jeff-beck/ https://planetradio.co.uk/planet-rock/news/rock-news/jeff-beck-tribute-concerts/ Edited April 17, 2023 by Matt5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
