Imagine raising a glass for a raspy-voiced lad from North London who has shown us all how to give our hearts to rock ’n’ roll. From all of us here at Grateful Web, we’re thrilled to celebrate Rod Stewart’s 80th birthday. Now, you know, Rod the Mod isn’t just any bloke—he’s a shining figure who’s carried a rebel’s soul and a romantic’s heart through decades of iconic music.

Today, June 24th, 2024, we remember the legendary Jeff Beck on what would have been his 80th birthday. His passing last year left an irreplaceable void in the world of music, but his legacy remains as vibrant and influential as ever. At Grateful Web, we celebrate the life and career of a guitarist who reshaped rock and roll with his extraordinary talent and innovative spirit.

As we approach the end of 2023, it's time to pay homage to the legendary musicians who left us this year, each of whom left an indelible mark on the world of music. Their contributions spanned genres and generations, influencing countless artists and touching the lives of millions of fans. Each artist brought their unique voice, style, and passion to the world, leaving a legacy that transcends time and genre.

Before his death in January, legendary guitarist Jeff Beck revisited concert recordings made by Beck, Bogert & Appice, the power trio he formed in 1972 with drummer/singer Carmine Appice and bassist/singer Tim Bogert. The live music captures the band at the beginning and end of its short-but-influential partnership, with two shows in Japan in 1973 and one of the group’s final performances in London a year later.
