[@rdmkeytohwy]

I am watching the full dvd on release day which is November 12th and I am stunned…..again! Eric just keeps growing and improving with age. He is well past the age where most artists hang it up but his voice sounds as good as ever. His acoustic playing doesn’t get talked about enough. Superior touch playing almost completely finger style and his solos are about perfect. The man knows his way around the fretboard. His phrasing and solo style are unmatched and he never plays the same thing twice. There is a lot to take in here and I am hearing some things in his playing I haven’t heard before. It is so annoying watching him play acoustic in his live shows in arenas because people won’t shut up and listen to him play. Everybody has to scream, yell, and clap in the middle of a song so the rest of us can’t hear him. No issues with that on this video. You can hear every note and he doesn’t hit a sour one at all. He also surrounds himself with the best musicians and you can tell these guys have played together forever. God bless you Eric and I hope you stay healthy and happy and bring us more music like this. Music heals!!!

[@Rockstaralan]

Oh. My. God! This is so stupendously AWESOME! If this isn't prove positive that Clapton's still got it at 76, than I don't KNOW what! Same goes for Steve Gadd, Nathan East and Chris Stainton. NONE of those guys have lost their touch!

Among the contemporary jazz drummers he considered most talented at the time, he also mentions Steve Gadd among the half a dozen listed. I guess it hasn’t gotten any worse since then, even if jazz hasn’t become a determining factor in his career.
