Jeff Beck, 1944-2023

England's greatest blues-influenced guitar picker? Why not? Sudden attack of bacterial meningitis.

Employed wymyn, too.When Rod Stewart was tolerable. Caught the act 27 November 1968 (Thanksgiving Eve) at Seattle's Eagles Auditorium. The group then:

• Rod Stewart - vocals
• Jeff Beck - guitar
• Ron Wood - bass
• Mick Waller - drums
• Nicky Hopkins - piano (from 18th October onwards)

Chicago Transit Authority was the opening act. Before they became Chicago, they weren't intolerable either.
