Billie Joe will be joined by Phish ‘s Trey Anastasio, who will welcome Genesis, according to Rolling Stone. The ceremony will take place at New York’s Waldorf-Astoria. Wyclef Jean will be on hand to induct reggae icon Jimmy Cliff. E Street Band guitarist “Little” Steven Van Zandt, equally well known as Sil from “The Sopranos” and respected as a curator and connoisseur of garage rock, will lavish praise on the Hollies. The Bee Gees’ Barry and Robin Gibb will be there to talk about their ’70s pop contemporaries in ABBA. Record executive David Geffen will be honored by Jackson Browne, whose debut album was also the first release for the impresario’s Asylum Records. Carole King will induct this year’s group of songwriters. Former frontman-turned-solo artist Peter Gabriel will reportedly not take part in the Genesis induction.
