One of his BEST guitar solos of all time. Superb. THE BEST BLUES-ROCK GUITAR PLAYER EVER!!! CLAPTON IS GOD!!!! 🙏💪🔥🎸🎼🎶

LOVE Clapton's homage to JJ Cale as to a main influence!!!

[@BBQDad463]

Amen. Yes.

[@user-je3jv9bt8z]

That said, I Soooo love Steve Gadd and all that he has done. One of our generations best drummers IMHO. Ask Eric...... Kudos !!~~!!

[@juanzanatta5247]

He is considered..one of the best guitar in this world

[@juanzanatta5247]

Do not forget the DRUMMER, HIM ALONE IS A PURE "LEGEND "

[@eddiemcmahon1652]

Love how Steve compliments Eric solo, he helps him build up the tempo for the blistering finish. Awesome performance by both ,💗

[@yannloiseau172]

Steve Gadd is so....perfect ! He just drum as he should, not to loud. The choristers are perfect too. Well in fact, all the band is perfect ! Heaven

[@user-je3jv9bt8z]

I am such a fan of Steve Gadd. Simply one of the best in the business of our generation. A PLUSS ++

[@burakgullu3459]

one of best concert and best performance.I hope you have long life Eric Clapton cause you are one of Legendary

[@Steve-ih7dg]

The way Steve G sets Eric up for his solo - just beautiful. That point at 5:38 where they both 'hit' their respective instruments completely in sync, and Eric is off, whilst Steve continues to keep that steady rhythm in the only the way he can. Building this up just past the 6min mark, you just know there is going to be a climactic explosion of playing from Eric as he digs in that bit harder, turns up the volume a bit more, adds some boost?, gets into his groove with some repetitive phrasing and at 7:42 you are just willing him to completely let rip, Steve adding more of his kit into it. Then at 8:10 or so - shivers down my spine as Eric goes into another world.

[@BBQDad463]

I fail to see how Eric is off. In fact, I consider this to be a masterwork.

[@Steve-ih7dg]

Steve Gadd is the ultimate musician's drummer - I love Steve Gadd's playing.

[@user-je3jv9bt8z]

@@marsstubblefield TOTALLY AGREE.. One of simply the best of our generation. A++

[@polandiamusic8659]

A brilliant solo! Brilliant Rhythm section! Clapton helped the world to get to know the big ones like Bob Marley and the humble ones like J.J.Cale, and that is also a great merit, absolute respect Mr. Eric !!! He used to say in an interview that there is no permanent band, but when he wants to play, he calls the best and who of them has time to play, it just happened, and we have this film.

[@SRY.GODISGOOD.92]

Whole band is on point man. Nice stuff. Clapton makes me feel great. Much love

[@denniskhaiter3941]

Nathan East's talent for keeping a subtle yet soulful background rhythm is truly heaven-sent.

[@fedalmaken8303]

Amazing bass by Nathen East!

[@rogersutcliffe9887]

I’ve seen Eric many times over the years. I even saw him twice in one week while he was on tour. Different sets each night which was amazing. There’s one thing with EC he may not be the fastest but who cares when Eric’s in the zone you get transported to another place. He plays with passion and it just flows out of him it’s mesmerising I watched him play after midnight twice just a few days apart and the solos were completely different but both times brilliant. That’s true skill

[@jaredrodriguez3578]

Wow congratulations, my biggest dream is to go see Eric clapton live, god has his favorites xd

[@peacenowar4886]

Eric Clapton The Legend on guitar, Steve Gadd om Drums, Nathan East on Bass.... AMAZING 👏

[@lennartlinde4445]

I could listen to this all day long! The timing of Steve is impeccable just listen to the very first note/strum of the solo at 5:38 Clapton & Gadd were made for each other..

[@aliboudje5649]

yes true at 5:40

[@Steve-ih7dg]

Could not agree more. I absolutely love how Steve plays in this track. It's as if he is ever, ever so slightly behind the beat - and yet he makes it work. (I'm not a drummer so not sure if this accurate :))

[@Imforeverenglish]

Jeesus that intro is good ..... but that 4 minute solo outro is bloody awesome ..... and this dear people is why Eric is God!!

Personally I think its the best version of this song from clapton. The intro is amazing. He never played it like this before. (not at crossroads, Hyde Park etc) Thanks for the upload. Greetings from Germany

[@trwashere5906]

Though far better than I could do in a million years, it's just one of EC's best. Just checkout the KZbin bootlegs and you'll see.

[@rfabadguitar]

agreed

[@vmanjunath]

Great improvisation. This song never feels old as EC always adds a tinge of new. Many friends think I m nuts listening to all these versions but there are subtle differences that make for pleasurable hearing. Plus EC can do it live unlike the Beliebers who lip sync.

[@ricks.1318]

I totally AGREE .... BEST EVER

[@hanshermes1137]

Talking bout solos, ec may be not the only one, but he is surely one of the few that exactly know when to stop, to switch or build a brilliant bridge, instead of going totally crazy on the guitar. so he practically manages it all the time while others persistently fail. Even blues legends like gary moore or the gilmore guy havent got that kind of feeling.

[@clamzzee7994]

lets say he played this song over hundred times
