In May 2023, London’s Royal Albert Hall hosted two tribute concerts honoring the late guitar legend Jeff Beck. Organized by Eric Clapton, the events featured a lineup of renowned musicians, including Rod Stewart, Ronnie Wood, Johnny Depp, and Kirk Hammett. These artists, many of whom had collaborated with Beck during his illustrious career, gathered to celebrate his musical legacy.
Rod Stewart and Ronnie Wood, former members of The Jeff Beck Group, reunited to perform classics like “Infatuation” and “People Get Ready.” Johnny Depp, who collaborated with Beck on the 2022 album “18,” took the stage for renditions of “Isolation” and “Walkin’ In The Sand.” Metallica’s Kirk Hammett joined the ensemble for a powerful performance of “Train Kept A Rollin’.” The concerts concluded with an all-star rendition of “Going Down,” featuring all the participating musicians.
These tribute shows served as a heartfelt homage to Jeff Beck’s enduring influence on rock and blues music, bringing together a community of artists and fans to celebrate his remarkable contributions.
