p90jr Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 When I was a kid I just thought Jeff Beck was an alien. I liked the Yardbirds and he looked so out of place in those pics from the 60s, like he'd traveled back in time to play with them. I remember watching "The Blow Up" on cable and thinking he must've just terrified people back then with the sounds he conjured. I couldn't imagine Jeff Beck as a kid sitting through school or whatever. All of that is meant as the highest compliment possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Fraser Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 He has the Spinal Tap haircut down! I've always thought the Nigel Tufnel character was designed 100% on Jeff Beck. Scott Fraser Scott Fraser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
