The 69-year-old musican was joined on stage at times by Jam's Paul Weller, The Who's Roger Daltrey and Ronnie Wood from the Rolling Stones.
Sir Paul rearranged his European tour dates specifically so he could play the concert for the cancer charity founded by The Who frontman Daltrey in 2000.
Pulp, Jessie J and Florence and the Machine are all due to play for the charity at the Royal Albert Hall over the coming days.
