Joe Perry and Ronnie Wood have recently been added to the Jeff Beck tribute concert taking place on May 22nd and 23rd in London. The sold-out shows are part of Eric Clapton to the late guitarist.
Jeff passed away in January at the age of 78 due to sudden bacterial meningitis .
At the time of his death, the Rolling Stones recalled that the last time he played with Beck was when he worked on the Chuck Berry in 2018. “He came down and Imelda May was singing. We played a bit of blues. On stage, he liked to be in the foreground. He liked to be heard. I'm really going to miss him,” he said (via Ultimate Classic Rock ).
Aerosmith 's guitarist also chimed in, sharing his experience with the beloved musician: “Jeff Beck was the Salvador Dali of the guitar. Watching him play was like listening to an alchemist creating magic in his own world. With his death, the world is a poorer place.”
Joe Perry and Ronnie Wood have now joined forces to pay tribute to names like Johnny Depp , Rod Stewart , Gary Clark Jr. , and more.
