@@FrogUncle264 Indeed, especially in Trucks's case. I've always felt that nobody could do blues on a Stratocaster like Eric Clapton; but Derek on slide is _lights. out._ He and Susan Tedeschi together are a marvel. Then again Derek's been a stage guitarist since he was like 12, so he's had a zillion opportunities to hone his craft. Derek always HAS been humble. He is not a stage hound and is more than happy to play 2nd fiddle to his wife, who is a generational talent in her own right. Just a quiet family man who happens to play guitar for a living.

And the absolute best rendition _like ever_ by the two players responsible for the song. This is seriously as good as it gets. What a lineup, and every single performer on the stage was locked in and there wasn't a blemish throughout the entire piece. Winwood and Clapton were in a mind meld, each taking a back seat during the other's solo, and then as a duo neither one out-shown the other; _perfect_ technique and timing. At the end you could see the look on their faces like "Yeh, nailed it." They most certainly did that night.

Doyle Bramhall Sr was Jimmie Vaughan’s buddy and bandmate since high school, and he wrote songs for Stevie Ray and played drums on the Vaughan Brothers’ only album. His son, Doyle Bramhall II was born in Dallas, grew up around the Vaughans, and has played with everyone, including Derek Trucks. He’s in Clapton’s touring band and is in this video. Derek Trucks grew up with the Allman Brothers, joined them when he was 19, and quit a few years ago to play with his wife. He was also in Clapton’s touring band here. On this tour supposedly, Clapton picked songs for Winwood to play and vice versa. Greatness.

From what I have read about this song.. in the beginning Eric Clapton took Steve winwood under his wings and showed him a lot. They said at some point they would form a band and play together but Eric had to go on tour in the US and Steve had to get busy with his band. When Eric got done he went back to UK exhausted and depressed and he just could not pick himself up from all the partying. He did not return to his music for sometime and Steve wrote this as a tribute song to Eric Clapton. I think, I could be wrong but I think this was when Clapton was struggling with a addiction.H

He has worked with Clapton over the last 20 years, toured with Roger Waters of Pink Floyd and grew up in a house with Stevie Ray and Jimmy Vaughn and played with both. His playing style is very unique in that he is right-handed, but plays his guitar left-handed with the strings strung wrong side up (fat strings at the bottom). If you want to check him out some great songs of his are: "Everything You Need", "Mama Can't Help You", "Cry" or "In My Time Of Dying". Or if you want to see him with Eric Clapton look up "Eric Clapton - Badge [Eric Clapton’s Crossroads 2019]", "Eric Clapton - Got To Get Better In A Little While [Official Live at Crossroads 2013]" or "Eric Clapton - Little Queen of Spades (Crossroads 2007)" Sorry for rambling on...

The supergroup Blind Faith (Eric Clapton, formerly from Cream, as guitarist: Steve Winwood, formerly from Traffic, as organist and singer; Ginger Baker, formerly from Cream, as drummer; and an excellent bassist/violinist) had a short U.S. tour (14 concerts or so) in July and August of 1969, and my then-17-year-old brother and my then-almost-14-year-old self were fortunate to win tickets to see Blind Faith from a radio contest held by the FM-100 rock radio station in our hometown of Memphis - the tickets were to the tour stop which was geographically "closest" to Memphis, which was the Sunday August 3, 1969 concert at Kiel Auditorium, in St. Louis. My brother and I flew up from Memphis on Delta Airlines, saw a (then-brand-new, premiering) film "2001: A Space Odyssey" in the afternoon, saw the wonderful Blind Faith concert at Kiel, that evening; however, it had some unexpectedly lengthy encores; this caused us to miss our late-night ticketed Delta return flight to Memphis. We tried to hitch-hike (as was mostly quite safe and quite customary, in those years) on the nearby I-55 expressway for a ride to the airport in St. Louis, to call our parents and ask them to wire funds for a new return-flight airline ticket; however, co-incidentally, a trucker who gave us a ride was going not to or near that airport, but was going straight through (in the wee hours of the morning of Monday the 4th) to a truck stop in West Memphis, Arkansas, before heading on I-40 south to Little Rock in Arkansas; of course, from our perspectives, it was a thousand times better and cheaper to do this, than to have gone to the St. Louis airport. We could then call our parents in Memphis from the truck stop in West Memphis, and explain the situation (there were no cellphones back then which would have allowed for an earlier call), and they were so delighted that we were both still alive and well that my father (a self-employed artist) left his office and picked us both us from the truck stop in West Memphis -- with NO questions asked !!!!! GREAT Memories -- except for the worries of my parents !!!!!

Their harmonies and the clarity of their voices made them one of the groups that continued to chart even as the Rock-n-Roll era was was taking hold of the music scene in the late 1950s into the early 1960s. Here are the names of several of their biggest hits -- 1) Only You, 2) Smoke Gets in Your Eyes, 3) The Great Pretender, 4) I'm Sorry, 5) Twilight Time, 6 Harbor Lights. I just turned 75 so I heard these songs on the radio when they were on the charts. You do a fabulous job of "Keeping Great Music Alive". Bob McP, Peoria, AZ

Clapton used to do this on tour with the great Yvonne Elliman on co vocals. She has an incredible voice and added so much to this song. She also does one of my favorite songs I Don’t Know How To Love Him from the play/movie Jesus Christ Superstar. Her version from the movie is utterly mesmerizing.

the best part is that the play list was selected by each other... Clapton picked his favorite Winwood songs and vice versa ~ and obviously, the 'house band' are all All-Stars

Yes, thanks for this song. I think it was done at an Eric Clapton crossroad's concert. They still jam that's for sure!!! Great great song.

Yup - as others have noted, Derek Trucks was up there on stage. Both he and Doyle Bramhall II were part of Eric Clapton's touring group for a while. (Derek was actually named after Eric Clapton's old band "Derek and the Dominos".) While Derek Trucks was in EC's band, he was also in the Allman Brothers Band, had his own band (Derek Trucks Band). And you're right about nobody up on stage "showing up" somebody else. Derek's that way in his current band - the Tedeschi Trucks Band - too. Just fantastic musicianship, supporting/encouraging other fantastic musicians. I've had the occasion to meet him a couple of times - he and his wife Susan Tedeschi (and the folks they surround themselves with) definitely seem to embody the "be a good human" spirit.

This is an amazing version from Clapton's Crossroads Concert. It's both of theirs song Claton & Winwood were in Blind Faith. Yes Derek Trucks was in Claptons Band as well as the Allman Brothers for some time

Man, the guitar riffs in this one really show off why Clapton is nick named "slow hand". His style is just so effortless. Unlike just about everyone else, he never seems in a hurry to get to the next spot on the guitar. He just glides over the neck of that guitar.

The Master Version. I'm so glad you selected this one. This is one of those master jam songs that all guitarists should learn, and hopefully they'll put out guitars in some backyard, or busking on the street, around a campfire and learn what jammin' is all about.

Such a great song. That's the one where Steve plays in front of that fireplace! Amazing artist.

I love how Eric and Steve have such a history they just play along side each other and no one steps on the other’s line. Just great pros. Just so you know Eric Clapton and Steve Winwood were in Blind Faith together. This was one of their hits.

Saw a blurb in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram about Derek doing a gig at J&J' Blues bar in 1995, So me and a friend went. The band was 45 minutes late, but when that kid ( he was 15 at the time) hit that first chord the hair on my arms stood to attention!. I took my 16 year old son to see him the next time he came through and had a great time. My son is no longer with us, but that was an awesome night. I encourage all of you to share your music with your kids. They just might be RUSH fans and you didn't know.

I’m SO glad you finally got to hear this version! It’s my favorite song on my ‘Mellow’ playlist. It just slows you right down and gets you all nice and mellow. They don’t call Clapton ‘Slow hand’ for nothing. Slow and cool… and yes, that’s Derek Trucks. 😊 peace to you Jamel.
