He was unassuming, one might say “modest”. I cried today for Jeff Beck. Not before first smiling and reveling in the gift he offered. A tribute popped in my YouTube feed this morning. I decided to watch it. Here’s the link. Beginning at 9:35 in the clip until conclusion of that particular segment at 12:34 minutes… “Niagara Falls, Frankie angel.”
Thank you, Jeff.

“He was unassuming, one might say “modest”.”…It was that quality that drew me even closer to Jeff Beck; even his music was gifted to us in a similar way…but, my God, wasn’t it pure magic!
Thank you for this lit candle, Denise.
( I for one played yesterday my insignificant guitar notes using only the JBeck pick up…till my fingers surrendered).

Only one of the greatest guitarists ever to have lived playing one of the greatest songs ever written by the greatest group ever to have graced this universe. That’s a lot of greatness; it doesn’t get any greater than that! Thank you, Jeff, and thank you, Denise! 💫

Just in case you failed to notice that I’m an audiophile as well as a storyteller with a huge passion for The Beatles, I thought I’d share this meteorite of excellence with you –
