Jeff Beck, legendary guitarist from English rock band The Yardbirds and The Jeff Beck Group, has died at 78. The news was announced Wednesday on Beck's verified Twitter account.
"On behalf of his family, it is with deep and profound sadness that we share the news of Jeff Beck’s passing," read a statement provided to USA TODAY, which noted that the musician died Tuesday "after suddenly contracting bacterial meningitis."
"His family ask for privacy while they process this tremendous loss," the statement added.
Beck was among the rock-guitarist pantheon from the late 1960s that included Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page and Jimi Hendrix. In his lengthy career, Beck won eight Grammy Awards and was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame twice: once with the Yardbirds in 1992 and again as a solo artist in 2009. He ranked fifth on Rolling Stone magazine’s list of the “100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time.”
