“I couldn’t pick up a guitar when he was in the room” one of the greatest compliments I’ve EVER heard. Sorry for your loss Sir.
Hendrix could, and did, jam at will with Beck, back in the late 1960s..they were equally brilliant, each in their own way...guitar meant so much back in those times...
I came here to type this. 😥
@@curbozerboomer1773 JB evolved for 50 more years and kept pushing the envelope on what could even be imagined as possible on the six string..they were contemporaries way back then, and that's where it ends; JB the Master Alchemist of the six string, unrivaled and incomparable, kept climbing to greater heights and never stopped evolving.
Just shatters the heart...
@@autk Nah, Jimi and Jeff are equals. What Jimi did condensed in those 4 years before his death was so utterly special, that he'll forever remain in the top echelon of guitarists.
Brian May has got to be one of the nicest men in the music business. Always comes across as sincere and humble and kind.
Knighthood and astrophysics PhD, was a university chancellor, built the guitar he played. Yet a humble man.
I agree, he felt it like the ordinary guy or girl in the street, jeff was above anyone, the guitar hero of guitar heroes,
Rem watching the news ,bbc , a picture of him came on, and I just started screaming at the TV, cos knew what was gonna be announced before the presenter said anything,
Only time I felt that way was , david bowie death,
Amd a very long time ago ,Randy Rhoads
Always growing up ,wanted to be j page/clapton / gilmour,
but beck on his own "plane" ,
Ronnie Scott's a day in the life
Loved eddie, but jeff better than all of them in reality ❤
@@leeaddison1100 Page was a predator, Clapton was a racist, and Jimi was violent when drunk. Brian May seems to be one of the few decent guitar heroes in terms of character.
We all love the music brian gave us,nothing but respect.
But the nicest and most humble?
When bohemian rhapsody movie was being written he told some stories to the writers obviously,and lots others. When they finished the screenplay and everyone read it,Brian called and said where the rest? This is only the 1st half of the story and a little too focused on freddie. Like people wanted the rest of the queen story and Freddie was just another member the band or something. And then fought for it to be changed or not come out.
That's far from humble and pretty much living in a fantasy world
Wow! To hear Brian May, also one of the great guitarists ever, speak about Jeff Beck this way is so special. To hear the awe and the fan in his voice is quite lovely. So sorry the world has lost him.
It was mutual respect. Beck admired Brian.

I was born 1962 - Only ONE GENERATION after Jeff Beck .
Myself playin Guitar since 45 Years - and I really ADORE Sir Brian May as one of the
most various, most technical advanced and most talented Guitar Players EVER.
Shure : One of the TOP TEN of all Times.
-
But - ALSO Brian May - made "little mistakes". Like every human.
Also Brian May "missed a note some time" - , played not "on time" or had bad moments.
But , damn - I heared Jeff Beck playin so much different Songs , so much different styles
and A MILLION SOLOS - and HE = NEVER MISSED A NOTE , never failed, never played
the same Interpretation a second time.. Jeff was SOOO Inspired from music
that he found - ALWAYS NEW WAYS TO PLAY - Every few seconds - for 60 years.
This made him UNTOUCHABLE. -
And I'm shure : In hundred years from now - Music profs will TRY to analyze
his Playin and will have NO IDEA about what Jeff Beck did with his guitar !
Jimi Hendrix , Jimmy Page, Ritchie Blackmore, Brian May - Always were THE TOPS.
Jeff Beck always was - A SKYSCRAPER HIGH above them.
Jeff Beck IS NOT DEAD. He only went there where he belong - A GALAXY above us ! Forever !

What a great and heartfelt tribute from one friend to another. Thank you, Brian.
❤
His touch was, for lack of better words, perfect. He could control every nuance of the note, knew where to pick, how to pick, and how to make the note sustain, vibrate and decay like no other. A true giant.
Yes
yup
I agree ‘Where Were You’ is indeed the most beautiful guitar piece ever….I heard Freddie was profoundly moved by it too…It is like an emotional NARRATIVE that defies verbal description. Listening to it would literally move me to tears…Blackbird is also sublime. Hypnotic in its incredible sounds and it’s sheer ambiance…And his Nessun Dorma….just beyond description. It’s wonderful that you made such a great connection to him Brian. And that you had the opportunity to tell him how much he inspired you. I’m sure he really appreciated it….In interviews on the documentary ‘Queen, the Magic Years’ I remember Jeff called YOU the Guvnor …We will all miss Jeff…The most impossible to copy genius ever.
Sending a hug. You sounded devastated, I’m devastated, this world is a little poorer.
Agreed
What a BEAUTIFUL homage to your DEAR friend, Jeff Beck!!!! I 'm sure he's looking down and smiling in heartfelt gratitude. May he RIP🙏🌹🙏🌹
Thank you Brian for this obviously heartfelt piece. We are all devastated that this great genius is no longer with us. RIP Jeff. 💔🎶💔
From such a massively talented and singular player, this says it all. RIP Mr Beck.🎸
Seeing such a talented and respected musician as Brian May be so upset, and have such admiration for Jeff Beck really makes you realise what a truly talented guitarist and personality Jeff Beck was....... I have tears in my eyes now, RIP Jeff Beck, you were loved and respected by so many people....... Your legacy will not be forgotten.
@@alanh7247I’m sorry you have such a miserable life that you have to lash out at other people’s grief.
@@alanh7247 Oh...I think you do!...just the fact that your comment is so spiteful, tells us that you missed the real beauty of Beck's playing.
@@alanh7247 Alan H Why say that ? ....Especially at a time like this when he is clearly affected by losing Jeff ? ...A little more empathy might suit you better.

@@alanh7247 I think you'll find that where you went wrong was in assuming that he was telling you how special Jeff was. He was telling you how special Jeff was to him. There's a difference and you'd have to be a pretty shallow and self centred person not to see Brian's testimony for what it really was
Beautiful words, Dear Brian! ❤️
R.I.P. Jeff Beck. 🕯️🌹
That are the nicest and most thoughtful words for a fellow musician I‘ve ever heard.
Jeff will continue to be an invaluable source of inspiration for all of us and he will never die.
No doubt there never was and never will be another like him. He is the ultimate guitarist . ❤
Humble words from a great guitar player to another. RIP Jeff.

And this is why we make the effort to listen to your music and to see you play live. Do you realise that we think the same of you? We look to you and others for our inspiration and because of your generosity, we find it. Thank you Brian for all the years you have shared with us. X
Sir Brian May is such a class act. A warm, heartfelt tribute to one of his musical peers. The man is gone but his music will live forever.
What a beautiful tribute to your friend, Jeff Beck! He graced this world with his talent. Soar high, JB!
Hello super fan, Thanks for the love and support, Where are you watching from ?
RIP JEFF , CAN'T BELIEVE YOU HAVE GONE 💙
RIP Jeff ❤️
"Where Were You", his masterpiece from the album "Guitar Shop" is one of the greatest pieces of guitar music ever composed. His touch, tone, and his melodic sensitivity in this song is absolutely unmatched. His technique and execution is simply jaw-dropping. Jeff was truly a one-of-a-kind talent. Thanks Brian May for choosing this song as your favorite.
Absolutely Juan.
Very true. It's sublime.
check out live at Ronnie Scott's too everyone. Wowza!
What a Wonderful statement.. Jeff Beck was definitely One of One.. Rest In Peace..
He was still well in his prime, a powerhouse.
He was, such a good point. I can’t remember who said it (maybe Page?) but there’s a quote that someone said he’s the only guitar player who has gotten even better over time.
Sorry for the loss of your friend and ours. We are all less without him.
His rendition (Jeff Beck's) of A Day in the Life (Beatles) is so special first time hearing was blown away - what he could do with just one note was amazing - what a loss to the world - but what a gift he was even more so
Steve, "His rendition (Jeff Beck's) of A Day in the Life (Beatles) is so special first time hearing was blown away." I'm curious when and where you first heard it. I distinctly remember the first time hearing him play that over 25 years ago. It was in Concord, Ca. The place went wild -standing ovation.
@@hoover8699 Hey Keith I was streaming (Live in Japan) driving in my truck - probobly about 4 years ago - That's an awesome Album - show's Jeff with a black les paul on the cover - I had a chance to see him here in Austin , TX - but did not make the show will forever now regret that - peace brother
@@steveweilhart2359 Thank you.
Brian May a superb guitar player, who had the courage to play a solo on the roof of Buckingham Palace, humbled in the presence of Jeff Beck, that really sums up for me, just how phonomenal Jeff Beck was. R.I.P. Jeff Beck.
Beautiful message for your friend 🎸Thank you Brian🎸 RIP Jeff 🌹🕊️🌹
Jeff was an amazing player. He was your friend. Thank you for talking about him.
Jeff Beck was almost exactly 10 years my senior. Of the age of musicians who shaped my growing up. And obviously a huge influence on other giants of the Rock World. And yet, such a down to earth man, who maintained that to the end of his life.
Brian, your heartfelt thoughts and emotion brought me to tears. To have seen and listened to Jeff Beck’s and your own music, to have lived in the same era along with so much genius and talent through the years gives me a sense of thankfulness for sharing this frame of time through eternity with you all. Jeff still exists.
He was a legend who will be truly missed. RIP❤. Thank you for sharing you memories Brian.
Rest in Peace in the arms of the Lord. May all the golden rays of shine on his beautiful soul he touch everyone lives. Condolences to his family and friends. Amen
I think that anyone who's ever picked up a guitar feels this loss a little more than the others, because he was so unique to us, particularly. A dreadful loss but a beautiful legacy. Remember his music and he's not really gone...
That was as moving a tribute that any man could desire.
R.I.P. Mr. Beck.
You will be missed.
Thank you Sir Brian May for sharing your most intimate thoughts over the loss of Jeff Beck. Your memories and colorful insights into Jeff, the musician, guitarist, and man, helped me understand what a brilliant treasure he was to us all. Well said. Rest in Heavenly Peace Jeff Beck🌹🎸
After watching this video, I went back and Listened to "Shapes of Things" by the Yardbirds.
The very beginning of the solo in that song has some similarities to "Over Under Sideways Down" which Jeff plays and is on the "Roger the Engineer" album, released a few months after "Shapes of Things."
But amazingly - parts of the solo has similarities to the solo work on "Taxman" and also the instrumentation on "Tomorrow Never Knows."
But Beck recorded this before The Beatles Revolver was released. Shows how much of an innovator he was.
My deepest condolences to you as you share the loss of a absolute hero in the eyes of many. He will be missed 😢
I can't imagine this world without Jeff Beck in it. A childhood hero.
Nice words from another beautiful man to another...on and off the stage....God Bless...xxx
Great tribute from a legend to a legend..Thanks Sir Brian..RIP Jeff
"Where did it come from?" That talent was a gift from God to play like that. RIP 🧡🙏
You speak for many of us from your generation. Jeff was not only a guitar legend but an inspirational example of how to be youthful and cool 70+ years old with or without a guitar. A special shining and ever-present light has sadly gone out for many of us. RIP Jeff.
Oh Brian.. you look so sad.. and this is a beautiful dedication to your friend. May he rest in peace and may you and all of his family, friends and followers find a way through the sadness soon x
I know Jeff will be missed. Especially for his family, friends, and his fans. Such a great loss of a wonderful person. RIP Jeff. 🙏
💯
Much love to you Brian. Jeff's passing is impossible to fathom for any of us.
Your heartfelt words are a consolation even in this sad moment. Thank you, Brian, for sharing with us your admiration for him. AS for "hug them while you still can", there's still time to "hug" the remaining lights. So, my deep thanks to you for your gifts to us. Huiswants es.
This drummer's heart is broken. I have discovered that, since I cut my rock 'n' roll teeth on "Truth" among other discs, I had apparently expected Jeff Beck to live forever. And I can appreciate how, even within RnR's heart, Beck had to play it the way he felt it, and always forged his own path.
We know souls like Jeff Beck's do not rest in peace. It is he who is on his way to his next gig and we who are poorer and sadder for his departure from brightening our world with his mastery of moving fingers in proper fashion across the neck and strings of a guitar. Play on, musician's musician, it was never so blunt an instrument as an axe in his hands, and may God's love be with him for eternity.
Sincere condolences Sir Brian, and such a tragic loss to the music industry. Thank you for taking the time to share your incredible memories of this truly remarkable guitarist we've all grown to know and love listening too! He leaves a rich legacy of music, and so many incredible memories.
Recently, I watching him here on youtube when he had been in concert and touring with Johnny Depp and Anika Nilles, and what a line up they made together with his band, yet another example of great and incredible musicianship in rock music. He will be greatly missed, and always greatly admired for his influential inspiration to many a musician, and for many yet to enter the world of music.
Can you believe Beck, Clapton and Page were in The Yardbirds and we lived at the same time as them?.. and most if not all the time Jeff Beck outshined these legends. Unbelievable, Jeff Beck was one of the best guitars to ever exist and all I have left is to be thankful that we lived alongside these giants and we have the legacy of these amazing artists as our treasure trove and inheritance of genius and creativity for posterity.
We are truly if not in one of the best, in the best timeline for musical wealth and beauty and we should keep their flame alive by playing their art and reviving their music through each and every single replay and interpretation.
RIP genius. We'll always look up to you Jeff Beck.
Thank you Dr. Brian May for the beautiful and touching words, you're also one of the greatest and a true inspiration. A true masterclass in humility and respect from you. You couldn't have put it in better words to remember this amazing artist who Jeff Beck was and still is.
Wow, such a heartfelt tribute! Jeff Beck was unique. As a guitar player I also felt a sense of awe listening to his music. RIP Jeff. Thanks for the inspiration 💓
His melodic sense was unrivalled, his pyrotechnics awe-inspiring, it's as if he came from the future to give us a glimpse of the possible. God speed JB.
I’m so sorry for your loss, Sir Brian, and my condolences go out to Jeff’s family and friends, he will be sadly missed by the music community, fans and all who appreciated and respected his virtuosity, skill and sheer breadth of his talent as a musician. There are very few artists who can reach a person on a visceral level, he was one. Thanks for your heartfelt tribute.
Brian you are the greatest gentleman in rock music, and a very deep person.
All the same feelings as you, Brian. Yes Jeff had an amazingly long run as the ultimate guitar players guitarist and inspired so many of us. Heart Full of Soul was in every garage band repertoire in our day and Shapes. Showing my age but happy Jeff was in our lives for such a long time and seemed to enjoy life to an age that we should all hope to attain. Had a few teary eyed days but now know he is on a much higher plane and at peace. Thank you for the heartfelt words Brian.
Heartbreaking 💔🥺😓🛐
He's playing in Heaven and in his prime 🙏
What a beautiful tribute. So touching... thank you Brian.
Sweet, heartfelt tribute to Jeff Beck. Thank you Brian May. Love Brian May and Queen!
The Guitar Shop album is amazing. It has some beautiful moments with a bit of Frank Zappa madness thrown in. Jeff Back always exited me when he played. I am a guitar player myself and created my own style and sound and that was the biggest influence I had from Jeff. A well felt tribute, thank you Brian.
So sad to hear of his passing, and so sorry for your losing a friend, who I suspect appreciated you more than you realize. It seems the more talented and brilliant someone is, the harder it is to understand them.
He did leave an amazing legacy and a veritable encyclopedia of guitar riffs, and masterpieces of music that guitarist will be trying to emulate as long as guitars exist.
God Bless you Brian and thank you for posting this video. I can imagine how difficult it was to keep it together.
What a wonderful human being Brian is.I have such respect for him.We have all been devastated by the shocking passing of Jeff.It's such an incredible loss to the world.
You could never pin Jeff Beck down He was a rock star he played Jazz-rock He could play the tenderest music. He changed styles so effortlessly. He could do everything. An amazing musician.
Brian what a lovely tribute to Jeff Beck, it's been hard for all of us guitarists worldwide to deal with the loss of the Master himself. What is tragic is he was razor sharp until the end and was always improving. Simply astonishing. This will be a hard one to get over, best wishes to you.
An astonishing, inspirational musician, who will be sadly missed, but ever appreciated; I'm sure your humble, heartfelt appreciation will bring comfort to many who knew him.
Jeff Beck
Rest In Peace.
What a beautiful tribute, and so heartfelt.
Hello super fan, Thanks for the love and support, Where are you watching from ?
What lovely words, he was an amazing talent. I like to think that he completed his journey, he absolutely "won" at life. Well done Jeff and thank you for being you and leaving us the gift of music.
Brian's been in the music industry since the '60s, and has seen more loss of colleagues and friends than most musicians ever even knew.
Condolences Brian, and thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts and feelings about Jeff. The news of his passing was sudden and shocking for many of us, but it must be much harder for those who knew and made music with him to accept it.
Thank you Brian. You are a true gentleman,full of class and dignity. Jeff brought out the awe in all of us. RIP Mr. Beck, and thank you.
What a lovely tribute, Brian... and coming from you, saying that you are in awe, makes me love you even more. You are a very good guitarist yourself, yet you are so humble. I met you several times, when Freddie was around, and talked with you guyz (interviewing you for the album The Works, the first time) over the years. Interviews, gigs...
I was in tears while you were talking of Jeff Beck, not only because of what you said, but also because you were almost in tears yourself...YOU are a great Person!
Rest in power, Jeff...stay in the light.
🌠🌠🌠
Never forgotten...(the world is mourning over your *departure* 😓😓)

Thank you Brian for a beautiful homage to one of the most astonishing musicians of all time. He brought so much beauty into the world. He seemed to speak through the guitar; the first time I heard play live it was clear that he was operating on a completely different wavelength, and the guitar was just an extension of his body......it was a religious experience for me. He was a true original.
Jeff's music will always bring us joy! I was lucky to see him here in Paris a few years ago - without a doubt the best concert I have ever seen. Thanks, Jeff.
Hi Brian as an ex Trident tape op I loved your sentiment..I was their in 81 as a kid but the walls echoed with great artists.RIP to Jeff.
Thank you, Sir Brian for sharing with us on such a sad day. I will look up that song and listen.❤😢
For me, as a kid when I picked up Blow by Blow I was just mesmerized by his talent. I played that album over and over and over. He didn't really play a style of music,, he played Jeff Beck music. Completely unique and his own. Elements of jazz, rock, progressive rock, blues,... just everything all mixed up in his virtuosity. I loved it. He never stopped tinkering as well. stayed on the cutting edge of guitar right up until today. Will miss him. Thankfully we have his music.
Lovely words Brian. Where Were You? Listening brought tears to my eyes. Love never dies, nor does energy, thus neither do we-RIP Jeff
Thanks Bri, to share with us your feelings, please take care, I love you Bri, love, Nica 💖💖💖💖
Brian, you've said it better than anyone. The loss of Jeff Beck slammed me to the floor, his influence on my guitar playing is huge.
I saw him about 10 years ago. I wrote this the next day....
"I saw Jeff Beck last night in Santa Rosa. Let me tell you, Jeff Beck can do no wrong. Iconic mastery the moment he took the stage. One of those rare souls whose instrument becomes an extension of who they are"
Jeff was an astonishing musician. The first time I saw Jeff live for the "There And Back" tour, I was buzzing for weeks over the show and the massive talent he possessed. It comes as no surprise that Brian May is in awe of Jeff's playing--we all are.
Mes condoléances Sir Brian, perdre un ami n'est jamais facile. Jeff Beck était un très grand guitariste et musicien 💖💖. Il rejoint Freddie et David Bowie pour jouer ensemble.🎸🎸🎸.
Jeff was as Rock n Roll as it gets. The real deal. RIP, Mr B. I've just listened to "Where Were You", and I have to say it was the right song and the right time, thank you.
Wow - so touching, warm and authentic admiration - for like, a brother. Nicely done Mr. May.
I am so moved by your words. I am but a fan of Jeff Beck (and you for that matter). I had the privilege of seeing Jeff Beck play and still remember it vividly. What unique sounds, phrases and notes that sang from his guitar. Fortunate to have some of his records. Big loss to all music and guitar lovers.
P&L - condolences
Jeff was my lifelong inspiration since seeing him play in the Yardbirds in 1965. I was lucky enough to meet him in 1967 when my band played support to The Jeff Beck Group, and he was tricky to enage in conversation as he was an incredibly shy, self-effacing person. Somehow I thought Jeff would always be around, silly I know. 😥 But his music will be there forever, inspiring countless guitarists, and that's one incredible legacy. Bless you Jeff.
❤❤❤ What a heartfelt tribute to his friend. R.I.P Jeff Beck.😢😢😢
There is no dispute that Jeff was the one and only player of his own notes . No doubt his family had a huge influence on his creativity and uniqueness . He will be missed by us who enjoyed every lick and original riff.
Absolutely beautiful tribute. Thank you. May he rest forever in peace. 🙏
Thanks Brian, so much. Beautiful mix of the personal and the guitar fan. Been listening to Jeff for 50 years and playing the guitar for 40. It is like a parent dying.
Thank you for this personal reminiscence. It means a lot to the rest of us who were in awe of him (and still are of you as well).
Hello super fan, Thanks for the love and support, Where are you watching from ?
My condolences Sir Brian on the very sad loss of the of possibly the greatest guitarist in the world. What a huge loss to the music world. My condolences to his family and friends as we all reel from this tragic news. Thank you for your wonderful tribute to the great Jeff Beck. He will be dearly missed.
I watch the DVD of Beck “Live at Ronnie Scott’s” about every 12 months. After half a dozen viewings I still can’t wrap my head around the emotive sounds he extract from a guitar. It was a totally different instrument in his hands. Totally unique musician and will be sorely missed
As soon as I found out about Jeff's passing I put on the video of that show and cried most of the ~1 hour and 40 minute run time, especially during 'Cause We Ended as Lovers'
He was such a generous spirit too. He seemed so to be so unassuming & did everything to encourage other artists to blossom. A lovely tribute from yourself Brian, thank you.
It is lovely to see how well loved the man was.
First off, I am so sorry for the loss of a dear Friend . Such a beautiful homage you are giving. So much love & respect you show for him. Sending Prayers & Condolences to his Family & Friends. Will be deeply missed by all. And to Brian & Roger my condolences for losing your Friend. RIP JEFF 😇 😪 🙏
Sorry for the loss of your friend and one of our guitar heros Brian.What a great message Brian.
We love Jeff Beck, and we love you too Brian ❤️
You said it just fine Brian..
I've been in awe since I was 16 listening to Jeff. He's greatly loved and honored, we will miss him!
Jeff left his mark. He definitely will be missed. We must honor him, along with everyone else that has impacted the music world as he did.
The chances are that he held you in high esteem as well, Brian. I'm sure any number of musicians and music lovers would have enjoyed having had the opportunity you had to meet him and observe him close up.
Jeff Beck. Great memories from the 60s !! R I P.
Beautiful colorful heartfelt tribute to Jeff Beck from the incredibly talented guitarist and sensitive intelligent beautiful man that Brian May is. So thankful we still have Brian on our planet. I realize it’s about Jeff right now but I love and respect Brian May so much. He’s an irreplaceable treasure as well. So sorry for the loss of your uniquely talented friend Jeff Beck.
Condolences on the loss of your friend...he was one of my true heroes. He will truly be missed.
Heartfelt tribute, Sir Brian of the Guitar. We lost a revolutionary talent that forever changed music and where it can go to amaze and inspire. - Giddy cries of God singing from Beck's chosen instrument. RIP Jeff Beck. Thank you Brian.
No words to express my sorrow, I am deeply saddened by the loss that you have encountered. Sir, you have my deepest sympathy. May you find comfort in the loving memories you shared while the legend was alive. Accept my condolences 🙏🙏
This means so much coming from another great guitarist. Beautiful tribute. Very well said Mr May.
All the wonderful things Brian says about Jeff Beck apply to himself too. Brian May is a rock and roll genius who will be missed as much as Jimi Hendrix, Jeff Beck, Prince, and Freddie Merucury, God forbid not anytime soon.
