The Legendary Jeff Beck Passes Away Age 78
We are very saddened to share the news that Jeff Beck has passed away at age 78.
Jeff Beck’s connection within the Pink Floyd family goes back to his collaboration on Roger Waters’ 1992 Amused to Death album and with Jon Carin joining Jeff for a rendition of ‘Where Were You” at Richard Wright’s memorial service (at the request of Rick).
Jeff’s last Floyd-related collaboration was when David Gilmour joined on stage for a rendition of “Jerusalem” at Jeff Beck’s Royal Albert Hall show on July 4, 2009.
” I am devastated to hear the news of the death of my friend and hero Jeff Beck, whose music has thrilled and inspired me and countless others for so many years. Polly‘s and my thoughts go out to his lovely wife Sandra. He will be forever in our hearts.” – David Gilmour
