I was lucky to watch him live two times.
The first time was my 18th birthday, in the Guitar Shop tour, with Terry Bozzio on drums and Tony Hymas on keys: a great experience that opened my brain and ears.
The second time it was few years ago, in a summer festival. He was a little sick but the performance has been astonishing!
He touched the guitar in a very unique and personal way: was able to make the strings sing and roar as nobody else. His guitar playing was miles beyond the “virtuoso”, he had a great touch and a supreme taste. One of the greatest.

He and Imelda May had so much here
This is a nice piece on him not just about his sound but also his attitude towards his celebrity.

Just an awesome player.
Always had a killer band too. This album blew my head off when I first heard it as a kid. Still does.

I’m fine with the author’s selection of top 3 guitarists in the world. Beck of course being one of them.
