Jeff Beck has sadly died.

The musician, widely considered to be one of the greatest guitarists of all time and referred to the “guitarist’s guitarist,” passed away on Tuesday (January 10) at the age of 78, his family confirmed in a statement.

Jeff came into superstardom in the English rock band The Yardbirds, and had won eight Grammys in his career, as well as being considered the No. 5 Greatest Guitarist of All Time by Rolling Stone.

“It is with deep and profound sadness that we share the news of Jeff Beck’s passing. After suddenly contracting bacterial meningitis, he peacefully passed away yesterday. His family ask for privacy while they process this tremendous loss,” the family said in a statement, via THR.

In addition to the Yardbirds, he also led the Jeff Beck Group and Beck, Bogert & Appice. He was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame twice, both as a member of the Yardbirds in 1992 and as a solo star in 2009.

Our thoughts are with Jeff Beck‘s loved ones at this difficult time. We have sadly lost several stars already in 2023.

“Hi everyone. This is my first experience within the world of social media. I’ve never done any of this before. I don’t think I really ever felt any particular reason to until now,” he said.

“Now is the time to open up a dialogue as the threat of this invisible enemy has already caused immeasurable tragedies and enormous damage in people’s lives. People are ill and without care, people are getting sick and fighting for death. People are dying … many are unable to provide for families … some have lost their jobs … businesses … some, far too many, are living on the streets with no protection, no shelter and no option of self-isolating at all,” he went on to say.

He then revealed that he and Jeff Beck were working on an album, and he felt it was as good a time as any to release his cover of John Lennon‘s “Isolation,” saying it was “especially fitting for what’s happening right now.”
