Jeff Beck and Johnny Depp - What's Going On - Live London 30/05/2022

Jeff Beck and Johnny Depp performing their cover of Marvin Gaye's "What's Going On" live at the Royal Albert Hall in London, UK on 30/05/2022. They also performed this song the previous night (in Sheffield) but as an instrumental, whereas here JD sings vocals as well (after some encouragement from Jeff).
The band also features Rhonda Smith on bass, Vanessa Freebairn-Smith on cello, Anika Nilles on drums and Robert Adam Stevenson on keyboards.
Apologies for the terrible sound quality, that's down to my phone (not the gig).

what a joke , how much does Johnny pay Jeff Beck to perform with him?

[@aportman58]

There’s nothing like the freedom and liberty being on stage playing your instrument and performing to an audience! I played bass guitar for over 40 years and it was like a divorce when I decided it was time to close the music chapter! Johnny Depp is doing what he loves and passionate doing! Don’t let any women or anything else stop you JD!!!

Thank you Mr.Beck for proving something to us that we already knew. Johnny Depp is a soul whose boundaries are limitless. He has been released from the negative influence he received from choosing to spend some time with the devil herself. This makes my heart free and my spirit soar. We all travel a different road but in the end we celebrate our arrival.

[@howlingwaters2741]

I'm afraid we don't, friend. You ride on the Devil's back too long, you end up in his belly. His attraction to self destruction...Let's hope he chooses the narrow path soon❤

Watched too many details of the recent trial to NOT be moved by this. Healing, hopefully for Mr Johnny Depp, and with the help and generosity of well-deserved friends and colleagues like the amazing Beck, is best way forward now. This video, the amazing song (discreetly but charmingly interpreted), a soulful guitar from Beck, and the vision of Johnny up there doing his thing, music is healing. Best of wishes for this man and his future, he deserves the best.

[@JackMcGuinnessMedia]

Just love it! Is this what Amber Heard was talking about when she stated that she did not like that Johnny Depp was “hanging out in his house with his friends because it was boring and they were all old men playing guitars.” As an old guitarplayer it´s impossible not to smile since most of my old friends that are playing guitar value occasions when they meet up with other musicians for jam sessions more than listen to people that find it boring to hang out and have fun.

[@abbyb.2755]

It's funny, because I'm the same age as AH and when I heard that testimony my first thought was... What's wrong with you girl? He has the coolest friends! I would lose my mind if I had the chance to have those guys just jamming in the living room! I mean, some of my friends are musicians too and one of my favorite things to do is just sit down and enjoy while they play some music. I think what really bothered me was the fact that she tried to make him feel like they were a bunch of losers when all his friends are some of the most influential musicians of the last generations.

[@fireflyqueen6]

Marvin Gaye's song is about as anthemic as a song gets. It defines a time -- you hear it and you are there, once again. Glad to hear Jeff and Johnny's version. Maybe our time still has hints of that time which was filled with so much hope.

Thanks to you and thanks to Beck for bringing Johnny home to us! It's been a grueling decade for Johnny, for his family, his friends and for his fans. Let's put it all in the past and let's pray that Johnny will share himself with us on stage, guitar in hand, belting out lyrics, and in his quiet moments Johnny will paint his soul for us! Just be YOU Johnny... Be you for your children... Be you for your self... Be you for your family... Be you for your friends... Be you for your fans.

Jeff beck playing is superb as usual, but the greatest thing going on on this stage, is the love and friendship of these two, and the fact that Jeff beck was supporting and being there giving Johnny Depp that very lift he needed to pick him out of the misery she has led him to…bravo Jeff beck who could wish for a better friend, and so well done Johnny depp for being so resilient , bit of&key sometimes but who cares you are the nuts

Bit of key,sometimes, no problem, it’s the stress from the last trial weeks. More important, Johnny is Free, and back. ❤️

Yes vocal chords will tighten up a bit. I didn't hear much off key. He bent the notes a lot and he has a wide vibrato which can make it seem he is off the note.
