When I was looking around YouTube for some Jeff videos a few years ago, I came across this one.  When I heard the bass, it struck me as unusually good, and when I saw the young thing playing it, I wondered if it was his daughter.  But no, just Tal.  I've been a fan of hers since then.

Jeff keeps his youthful good looks with hair dye and a neck scarf or other wattle cover.

Got tickets to see him with Buddy Guy in Chicago this summer. Just need to decide who to invite.

That's very bad news.  A friend of mine has that, and it's bad enough that he is out of bed only five hours a day.  He says when he's up, it feels like he's constantly standing on hot coals.

Wife and I saw JB in concert two summers ago; he is still an amazing musician.

I love Jeff Beck. He's doing a good imitation of being immortal. Looks like he works out, fit and supple, plays like a god, has spunky Tal loving him in the background and creates amazing music.
Meanwhile he uses his money to build hotrods and does a lot of that work himself. What a guy!
Saw him in concert at The Enmore in Sydney a few years ago. Surreal playing, a total master of the Stratocaster.

I thought he had to retire due to tinnitus - he must have found a good acupuncture source or something.

 Or like Stephen Stills he plays by sensing the harmonics .

Rave Up is one of my favorite albums.  Hard rocking and amazing guitar.

I bought a Jeff Beck Tone Bender box for a guy in the service that brought it back from England, being make in a basement of the VOX company.  It was one of the first fuzz boxes anybody saw here in the states.

God that was a long time ago!

Dunno... It'll certainly allow one to care less if so inclined.
