NEW YORK (October 27, 2009)--Eric Clapton was forced to pull out of this week's Rock and Roll Hall of Fame concert in New York after undergoing gallstone surgery.
Kristen Foster, a publicist for the guitarist, said Tuesday that Clapton was doing well and recuperating with his family in England.
The hall says Jeff Beck will replace Clapton in Friday night's show at Madison Square Garden.
Clapton, 64, was to perform as part of a two-night celebration in honor of the hall's 25th anniversary.
Beck joins U2, Aretha Franklin and Metallica for the final night.
The Thursday lineup includes Crosby, Stills and Nash; Stevie Wonder; and Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band.
HBO will air the concerts Nov. 29.
Clapton's Web site says he remains committed to his 2010 concert schedule.
