The Guitar Gods - Eric Clapton & Doyle Bramhall II: - "Crossroads"

[@runesvendsen2270]

Doyle Bramhall II was born in Texas, and lived half of his life in Northern California. His father,Doyle Bramhall, Sr., played drums for legendary bluesmen Lightnin' Hopkins and Freddie King and was a lifelong collaborator with childhood friends Stevie Ray Vaughan and Jimmie Vaughan.

Rune Svendsen È un grande

[@colorado4691]

yup

[@deltamx]

thanks for that information

[@brianherrington7226]

Doyle Sr and Jimmie Vaughan started early in Dallas Texas in the Oak Cliff section of Dallas before moving to Austin Texas in the late sixties. I was also privileged to have seen Sam Lightning Hopkins in Dallas in September 77 near the end of his journey. I believe Doyle II is one of the top players today as is former band mate Derek Trucks and he and and Charlie Sexton front a great band together called The Arc Angels that has one half of SRVs Double Trouble Chris Layton on drums. If you ever get a chance to see them do because they are red hot.

[@karenholliday2703]

I've loved and adored Eric Clapton for as long as I can remember. When our own Texas Doyle Bramhall Jr hooked up with Slowhand himself I was thrilled! He's very unique and talented and loved him with Arc Angels. One very lucky guy is he but worthy!

[@chasbodaniels1744]

Arc Angels yeah! That one debut album was a chunk of gold imo.

[@mikshaver]

what I love about Eric, and Doyle for that matter, is that they don't compete for the "best lead", they just step up because they are together and want to give it all when they let it rip!

[@asat96]

Yes I agree. Music should never be about ego. It should only be about expression. At least that's what I think!

[@darrelltiencken2194]

As if we don't have enough of a great thing.....just listen to the fantastic drums!!!

[@rl529]

Darrell Tiencken You got that right about the drummer! That's Abs Laboriel, Paul McCartney's long-time drummer and one of the best alive.

Excellent Version 👍

[@antoniodias4718]

2 great guitarists!!!

[@ridhoaffan3458]

waw,.,,perfect performance , i like the song "crossroads". eric clapton it's very amazing guitar soloing.

[@RaysDad]

In 1968 Eric Clapton recorded a fabulous version of Crossroads with Cream (Wheels of Fire album). Since then he's revived the song with a lot of different groups, and all these later versions are dummied-down and lifeless, just like this one.

[@mikekopmanis2099]

I really think Clapton's chips are not there to play it "right" anymore. Sad because it's really not that hard and the original version is so incredible. Check out Chelsea Constable covering it, or Eddie Van Halen doing it live.

[@RaysDad]

@@mikekopmanis2099 Ok, I just listened to Chelsea Constable for the first time and she demonstrates the solo nicely in an instructional video. She even plays it on a Gibson ES 335!

[@nickbouvy6524]

He doesn’t like his original version. I like the original Cream version of the Robert Johnson classic

[@RaysDad]

@@nickbouvy6524 I just listened to the 1968 Cream version of Crossroads again. Wow!

[@danieladams4677]

watching Doyle always freaks me out the way he plays the guitar backwards I know one guy who plays rhythm that way

[@SkeletonKeey]

Could be around 2007-08. Eric just gets better. I've been listening to him since John Mayall. He just gets better with age. Having Doyle Bramall doesn't hurt anything at all.

[@jackrussell13]

Doyle ripped one heck of a solo..RIP..

.. kind of boring, only like the up-tempo life version of Creams last concert with Bruces´rolling bass and Baker and Clapton tormenting his guitar, unfortunately he never played it that way again, right or wrong, in tune or not, unfortunately he must´ve run out of some good sniffing paste ...

Lets get one thing straight, Doyle is a great guitarist, but he is NOT a guitar god! That is reserved for the likes Of God (Jimmy Page), Jeff Beck, Eric Clapton.

[@james-jg8iu]

You forgot Hendrix and prince and probably a whole lot more that I’m not even thinking about. Doyle looks pretty good to me

EC has always been my favorite but honestly I have not heard anything by Clapton - Bramhal that caused me to think Branhal is anything but mediocre. Sorry.
