Beck and Karen O will perform a musical tribute to Lou Reed at the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame ceremony - althought presumably Metal Machine Music is of the list.

As previously reported this year the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame will induct Lou Reed, Joan Jett & The Blackhearts, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Bill Withers, Green Day and the Paul Butterfeld Blues Band.

Beck, Karen O and Nate Ruess will pay tribute to Read, John Legend (with a little help from Stevie Wonder) will pay tribute to Bill Withers while Gary Clark Jr and John Mayer will recognise the career of Stevie Ray Vaughn. Brilliantly Tom Morello will perform in the tribute to Paul Butterfield. Fall Out Boy will honour Green Day, Miley Cyrus will celebrate Joan Jett and Paul McCartney.

The ceremony takes place on 18 April at Cleveland's Public Hall and the event will be shown on HBO later this year.

The Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame only accepts inductees 25 years after the release of their first record.

Watch Beck's video for 'Country Down' below:

Beck is set to play at Barclaycard British Summertime on 18 June alongside The Strokes, Future Islands, Temples, Public Service Broadcasting. For tickets and more information, visit here.
