  1. Many so called facts are incorrect, he is also known by his millions of fans as “The Hands of God” he is simply the best guitarist that Britain has produced , most of the other contenders such as Page, Clapton , Slash, Gilmore all claim he is the best.I also heard Hendrix on a couple of occassions and although Jeff would disagree he the as always better than Jimmy but still also an exceptional artist.

  2. Jeff is the most creative, diversified, unique guitarist I have ever heard. I call him “Untouchable” relative to talent and the guitar.
