    R.I.P. and what a talent and unique voice.

    His family home in Wallington, Surrey is just a couple of doors down from me and my older neighbours have regaled me with stories about him. Even in his late teens, he was a petrol head with Escorts and Capris littered about the road.

    Thank you for the music and this extraordinary piece

    Oh no!!! I just heard this sad news on the BBC 10 o'clock news. 

    I knew he was an active guitarist, and didn't think that he would leave us so soon.

    RIP.

    I hadn’t seen anything until this. One of those people, regardless of your own musical tastes,who was clearly a giant figure in the world of guitar.

    RIP. 
    I’ll handle this Violet, you take your three hour break.

    Terrible news. A sublime player with immeasurable talent. I have been fortunate to see him play a number times and every time he was just wonderful. Irreplaceable. RIP Jeff.

    Hero of mine, huge influence and one of the reasons as a young boy I picked up a guitar. So sad.

    Absolutely gutted. An amazingly player with a unique expressive style. His playing was a big part of my life and a huge influence. I first saw him play in 1973.

    The greatest of the classic rock guitarists and a real innovator. Really upset by this news.

    It's not a competition.

    Shocked and saddened. Jeff was a massive influence on me as a player, there’s rarely a day goes past where I don’t listen to him. Totally and utterly unique and irreplaceable. As someone said, ‘Jeff Beck is one of one’. 

    I feel like I’ve just heard a family member has died. 
    This is absurd.  You don’t know what you’re talking about.  It warrants combat.

    Gutted! That really caught us all off guard I think. What an astonishing legacy though. Truly the guitarists guitarist and also a household name for many. Huge influence on me. The hot rod world will also be missing him. RIPlaying Mr Beck.
