Jeff Beck
Criticizing guitarists who played with The Yardbirds is tricky. The Yardbirds were made up of simply Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, and Jimmy Page. Jeff Beck is a remarkable guitar genius whose work spans several genres, including blues-rock, hard rock, and electronica. He has reached the age of 75 and shows no signs of slowing down. He’s recently been seen performing with Johnny Depp at live events.
Steve Vai
In the year 1960, Steve Vai was born in Carls Place, New York. At the age of 18, he began his musical career by copying a difficult Frank Zappa song on notebook paper and submitting it to the artist. Zappa mailed a plane to Vai after reading the page, and Vai flew a few to Los Angeles and joined the band. Vai is another virtuoso who has been labeled as an outspoken performer.
