Nobody gets out alive.

Cousin of mine died Saturday in a head-on freeway collision. I don't think she suffered.

I've had his WIRED album. Since the 1970's. Good stuff.

Staple on AOR stations back in the day, but I don't hear him on 'classic rock' stations as often as his stature would indicate it should be.

I think Beck is too advanced for the average listener. The man was a definitely a GENIUS.

Have been a huge fan of his for almost 50 years. In addition to his musical prowess, he ws into vintage hotrods and high performance cars. Very high-functioning guy. RIP.

Well he has been well known since 1965, forming his own group in 1967. Were you listening to The Monkees or what?

Then you might have known him from a minor group called the Yardbirds; maybe also from his own group which introduced Rod Stewart. All that was before 1973, so in your wheelhouse.

Beck wasn't a shredder; one thing I admired about him..

Beck ranked in the top five of Rolling Stone and other magazine's list of 100 greatest guitarists.
