Paul McCartney Joins Musical Tribute To Late Wife

An emotional Paul McCartney performed for the second time in two years at a Saturday London charity concert organized as a tribute to his late wife Linda, who died in 1998 following a long battle with breast cancer. McCartney performed the Beatles' Let It Be and Ricky Nelson's Lonesome Town and the Beatles song All My Loving, according to the BBC.

McCartney's voice cracked with emotion as he told the crowd of 5,000, ''She's with us, she's loving it,'' said the BBC report.

The concert, which was organized in part by Chrissie Hynde, featured performances Elvis Costello, the Pretenders, Tom Jones, George Michael, Johnny Marr, Neil Finn, Marianne Faithful, Ladysmith Black Mambazo, Des'ree and Sinead O'Connor.
