One of the most influential guitarists in music, Jeff Beck helped shape the sounds of blues rock, psychedelia, and heavy metal, inspiring guitar players for decades with his unique style. While Beck’s groups may have been short-lived, the impact they made and his aggressive style, encompassing screaming, bent, sustained notes, distortion, feedback, and fast, crisply articulated passages, continues to influence and entice musicians and fans alike. Jeff Beck is a seven time Grammy award winner and a two time member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, as a Yardbird and as a solo artist. Beck was ranked fifth on the list of “100 greatest guitarists of all time” by Rolling Stone magazine.
