i saw cream with the grassroots in charleston, wva. and saw derek and the dominos on thanksgiving in cincinatti, ohio. both were spectacular. saw him solo twicw and both times were less than great...he seemed bored, except playing 'badge'.
Have you seen Eric Clapton at his best?
Up until last night I had seen Eric four times and honestly felt I hadn't caught him at his finest. His recent tour gives all of us the opportunity. His set is largely from "Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs" 'cause he has the greatest living slide guitarist playing with him - Derek Trucks. Their interplay on the Layla album songs is truly magical. Catch the concert when it comes your way. Amazing!
