Everyone on that stage is a musician….. and that is Sir Eric Clapton. Ok children, that concludes our conversation… Carry on… 💯☮️

This is one of my favorite songs ever, originally written by Big Bill Broonzy. Eric says in his autobiography that this was one of the first songs he ever learned to play fully on guitar as a kid. The fact he stretched this song into what it is….masterful display of guitar playing. Also, this led me down a path of learning about so many of the original blues artists in history, including Big Bill. Thank you, Eric!

Maybe the best live Clapton I've seen. Back in about 1970 I saw him at the Olympia stadium I'm Detroit, the very old home of the Red Wings. Great concert. Who opened? Carlos Santana. Are you kidding me? This was a show! I used to afford a concert in the old days. Now it's ridiculous. Can you imagine what it would cost to see Clapton and Santana in the same show now. The seats I had at Olympia? I'd have to mortgage my house...

You know you haven't done nothing, Drove a good man away from home. When the moon peeks over the mountains I'll be on my way. I'm gonna roam this old highway Until the break of day. So long. So long babe litle da im i say good bay I'm gonna roam this old highway Until the day i die. I got the key to the highway, Billed out and bound to go. I'm gonna leave here running; Walking is most too slow.
