Don't know how to do video's, but, "Beck's Belero" is pretty good. Someone will find it.

Been influencing rock and other genres for decades, up to and including his recent playing on Ozzy Osbourne's 2022 track Patient Number 9.

Interesting, no guitar pick. Just his thumb.

Yes, and some finger picking. Albert King never used a pick either.

Quite a few really good guitarists don't use a pick. Some good examples here.

Been playing for 50+ years but always use a pick for electric or bass guitars. I do however use my thumb when playing acoustic guitar for cowboy music.
