It is very interesting to see that photo.  Billy Gibbons has wrapped himself in such a thick blanket of eccentricity with the beard, the sunglasses, the hats, the suits, the odd way of speaking..... it's weird to see him as a sweaty, chubby-faced normal bloke.  With a very nice guitar.

Gosh.. Is it just me or is there's a bit of "Brando" about him in that photo? Cool.

^ I'd  have never known that was Billy Gibbons, yes he does look like a young Brando a bit.

I love Jeff Beck music. I was slow to take to it at first but the tune the Pump from 'Guitar Shop' kind of did it for me. I really like his 'Who Else' album and the track 'Angels Footsteps', which is done with a slide and goes right past the 22nd fret area towards the end. The tone on that is superb, from neck  p/u to bridge and controlled attack, which is beautiful.
