The 75-year-old axeman has recently been working on new music, which will tentatively be released later in 2020 via Rhino / Warner Records.
Last week, Jeff Beck dropped a surprise Johnny Depp collaboration – a cover of the John Lennon classic ‘Isolation’.
It sees Beck play lead guitar with Depp on vocal duties, and they’re backed by long-time Beck collaborators Vinnie Colaiuta on drums and Rhonda Smith on bass.
Jeff Beck said of the collaboration: “Johnny (Depp) and I have been working on music together for a while now and we recorded this track during our time in the studio last year. We weren’t expecting to release it so soon but given all the hard days and true ‘isolation’ that people are going through in these challenging times, we decided now might be the right time to let you all hear it.
“You’ll be hearing more from Johnny and me in a little while but until then we hope you find some comfort and solidarity in our take on this Lennon classic.”
