Stevie sings, Flea slaps and Beck blows on his harmonica: Sly Stone got an all-star tribute at the 2025 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame ceremony

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA - NOVEMBER 08: (L-R) Stevie Wonder, Jennifer Hudson, Maxwell, Leon Thomas III, Questlove Flea, and Beck perform onstage during the 2025 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony at Peacock Theater on November 08, 2025 in Los Angeles, California.

Right from the get-go, it was a star-studded 2025 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony in Los Angeles last night. That’s because the evening was kicked off with a tribute to Sly Stone, who died earlier this year, that featured (among others) Stevie Wonder, Flea, Beck, Maxwell, Questlove and Jennifer Hudson.

After a short intro that highlighted just some of Stone’s mighty achievements, it was Wonder who kicked off a rambunctious Dance To The Music, which also included a drum break from Questlove, “a little guitar” from Leon Thomas and some big bottom end (after a missed vocal cue) from Flea.
