About the Show

Jeff Beck paid fitting tribute to Les Paul last summer, celebrating what would have been the pioneering guitarist's 95th birthday by playing his friend and mentor's music, along with classic tunes from the era, in the same Times Square nightclub that Paul played every Monday for 14 years before his death in August 2009.

Sponsored by Gibson Guitar and billed as “A Celebration of Les Paul,” Beck was joined by The Imelda May Band at the Iridium Jazz Club in June 2010. The two-time Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee mesmerized the star-studded audience with a tour de force performance of classics Paul recorded with Mary Ford, “How High The Moon,” “Vaya Con Dios” and “Mockin' Bird Hill,” along with such rock and roll standards as “Twenty Flight Rock” and “Walking In The Sand.”

For those left off the guest list, Eagle Rock Entertainment and ATCO will offer this one of a kind performance to purchase. ROCK AND ROLL PARTY TO HONOR LES PAUL will be available on DVD and CD February 22.

Following these releases, Beck will take the “Rock And Roll Party” on the road for a short U.S. tour. Beck will once again be backed by The Imelda May Band and its enchanting singer Imelda May, who joined Beck on stage at the 2010 Grammy Awards for a spot-on rendition of Paul's “How High The Moon.”

PBS recently aired a unique edition of this performance with the premiere Jeff Beck Honors Les Paul, a concert special that captures the first night of “The Celebration to Honor Les Paul,” which was recorded on June 9, 2010, what would have been Paul's 95th birthday. Special guest performers included Troy “Trombone Shorty” Andrews, Gary U.S. Bonds and Brian Setzer who traded riffs with Beck on Eddie Cochran's rockabilly classic “Twenty Flight Rock.” The program will air again on local PBS station WTTW on March 4.
