In May 2023, two special tribute concerts were held at London’s Royal Albert Hall to honor the legendary guitarist Jeff Beck, who had recently passed away. The events were organized by Eric Clapton and brought together a group of famous musicians who had worked with Beck over the years.
Rod Stewart and Ronnie Wood, who once played in The Jeff Beck Group, came together to perform fan favorites like “Infatuation” and “People Get Ready.” Johnny Depp, who recorded the 2022 album 18 with Beck, performed songs such as “Isolation” and “Walkin’ In The Sand.” Metallica’s guitarist, Kirk Hammett, also joined in with a strong performance of “Train Kept A Rollin’.”
The concerts ended with all the artists performing “Going Down” together, creating a powerful and emotional finale. These shows were a touching way to celebrate Jeff Beck’s incredible impact on rock and blues music. They brought musicians and fans together to remember his amazing talent and lifelong contributions to music.
