The band that Jimmy Page couldn’t stand being compared to: “It really pissed me off”
Not the guitarist they thought he was.
Jeff Beck
The one guitarist Brian May compared to Mozart: “One of the greatest musicians on the planet”
The Queen guitarist learned from the very best.
The guitarist even Eddie Van Halen knew was out of his league: “A standalone”
Never knowing where he’s going.
The one guitarist Jeff Beck wished he got to meet: “The biggest unsung hero”
“The awe I would have been in of him, and he would have been sitting there, wishing he was fishing.”
The “terrible blow” that made Jeff Beck want to quit music: “I was genuinely sick”
A series of false starts.
