Now, Beck’s widow – Sandra Beck – and fellow six-string legend Eric Clapton have announced two upcoming tribute concerts that will feature appearances from many revered artists. As per Guitar World, the pair of performances will take place on May 22 and 23 at London’s esteemed Royal Albert Hall. As of now, the line-up will also include Rod Stewart, Johnny Depp, Susan Tedeschi, Billy Gibbons (ZZ Top), Gary Clark Jr., Derek Trucks (The Allman Brothers Band), John McLaughlin, Rhonda Smith, Doyle Bramhall II, Anika Nilles, Robert Stevenson, Robert Randolph, Imelda May, Olivia Safe, and Joss Stone.
