It’s out today. Rock’n’Roll Hall of Famer Ricky Byrd (Joan Jett & The Blackhearts)—and former lead guitarist in Southside Johnny & The Asbury Jukes—has honored Jeff Beck [1944-2023] on his new Wicked Cool Records all-instrumental single, “Rhapsody In Blues (One For Jeff).” It’s a stunning—and quite delicious tribute—to the late British guitarist.

They were loud as hell. They were flashy, in-your-face and knew it. British guitarist Jeff Beck [1944-2023] came originally from The Yardbirds. New York drummer Carmine Appice, 76, and bassist Tim Bogert [1944-2021], who graduated Ridgefield High School in Bergen County, came out of Vanilla Fudge and Cactus. Now a new boxed set unleashes previously unreleased live performances.
