Saw him in the mid 70's but memory is a little fuzzy.
It was in Tulane Stadium with ZZ Top, Aerosmith, Fleetwood Max and others.
Anyway, I remember it was raining and Jeff Beck kept trying to play through it, but finally announced he couldn't take it getting shocked any more so had to leave.
Anybody at that show and can fill in details?

No matter who your favorite guitarist is, he is either directly or indirectly indebted to Jeff Beck's influence. Whether one could relate to his huge, diverse body of work or not, Jeff Beck was simply the guitarist's guitarist, and the GOAT's GOAT. No question.

Don't believe me? Pick any, ANY, great and/or iconic living guitarist, go to his social media platforms right now, and go look at what that player had to say about Jeff Beck's influence on them and on guitar in general.

Yet again, Jeff Beck has all of my idols in awe and disbelief but unfortunately this time it's because he's now silenced. Very sad.
