Description: Geoffrey Arnold Beck (24 June 1944 – 10 January 2023) was an English guitarist. He rose to prominence as a member of the rock band The Yardbirds, and afterwards founded and fronted The Jeff Beck Group and Beck, Bogert & Appice. In 1975, he switched to an instrumental style with focus on an innovative sound, and his releases spanned genres and styles ranging from blues rock, hard rock, jazz fusion and a blend of guitar-rock and electronica.
Description: Jeff Beck, released in October 1989 after a four-year break from making music. This was Beck's first album to showcase his fingerstyle play, leaving his more familiar plectrum playing style. Guitar Shop reached No. 49 on the U.S. charts and won Best Rock Instrumental Performance in 1990, this being Beck's second album to win that award. In a further move from his previous jazz fusion stylings, Beck adopts a more straightforward instrumental rock approach on this album, save for two tracks ("Guitar Shop" and "Day in the House") on which quirky spoken vocals are included.
