Sad losing too many! Like the old Yardbirds stuff but my favorite Jeff Beck is the cover of “People Get Ready” with Rod Stewart on vocals. A very moving song - awesome guitar & vocals. RIP.

When I was at USC in 1975, Blow by Blow came out and it was being played on the Horse Shoe at about every party I went to. You could hear it from dorm rooms walking around campus. I had been listening to it on Spotify over the last year. What a great guitarist and song writer. The greatest music generation from the 60s and 70s are quickly leaving us. Very sad.

You might have heard that coming from my dorm room. Playing it loud was the only way to listen to it.

Yes! I'm sure I did. I lived on the Shoe the year of 1975 across the yard from the Presidents House. One of my roommates had a band and he knew all the good bands and locations so I was really tapped in. To this day, the Left Guard on Rosewood had some of the best bands I ever saw. The old Campus Club had an occasional good band. There was one band that played at the Campus Club a lot and did a good bit of Led Zeppelin. The lead guitarist could nail Whole Lotta Love which ain't easy to do.
