This video never gets old masterful.playin by the MASTER HIMSELF IM GLAD I WAS LUCKY ENOUGH TO WATCH AND HEAR YOU PLAY ...BADA**!! IF I DO SAY SO MYSELF ...
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.
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.
I met you at the roundabout on the A40 at the Wembley Exit Sir Eric in 1992...it made my day, month, year, life...........we played air guitar.... we had fun for ten seconds......thank you .... we all love you!
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
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.
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
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..
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 :))
Seen Eric Twice and I have never heard him Solo better than this. Absolutely on fire . Can I also give a mention to Steve Gadd . He has to be in any bodies Top Ten Drummers of all time . The man can play anything . Along with Nathan It’s a Titanic Rhythm section.
Thats whats great about blues players. From Clapton to Slash, Bonamassa, etc since Improv is inherited within blues you'll see some nights they are in the zone and other nights not so much.
Of course it has to be one of the best cos the greatest legend of all time the steve gadd is on the drums and Nathan east on bass... And Eric Clapton is a legend
Eric Clapton, Nathan East, and Steve Gadd represent a superstar rhythm team. No body gets in the way. Even as a bass player, when I hear EC playing I want to do some serious air guitar playing.
Together with the sensitivity of steve gadd drives him to an amazing solo part. perfect band, powerfull drive, and the Ladies....wow, so sexy voices and lips! i hope i will see him again, when the pandemic thing had been endet.
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.
So many musicians,but one of em knows what to do,whitout any kind of billshit! But there,s a Buddy Rich,Nathan East........ect.! I,m a fan of Ritchie,but Eric are awesome and incredible at that show!!!
I remember being thrown in the drunk tank when I was young. They had piped in radio, and when this song started playing, and everyone in the jail cheered!
Suddenly there I was, centerstage, was I dropping into the zone? Yes, I think I was. I just seemed to float away. Trying to follow where my guitar was going. One Eric’s best jams.

I fail to see how Eric is off. In fact, I consider this to be a masterwork.
@@BBQDad463 'Off' as he is off and letting rip
Steve Gadd is the ultimate musician's drummer - I love Steve Gadd's playing.
and what about the bass line ??
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!!!
Amen. Yes.
Love how Steve compliments Eric solo, he helps him build up the tempo for the blistering finish. Awesome performance by both ,💗
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
Jeesus that intro is good ..... but that 4 minute solo outro is bloody awesome ..... and this dear people is why Eric is God!!
ESPECTACULAR MENTE BARBARO MAGNIFICO
Cmapton is god true! If you like the intro just try playing it? The chords are gm and cm7.
L
@@Landaftertime It's not about the guitar man. It's the whole band. If the chemistry doesn't form. Maybe we won't hear this
God before of Hendrix !
Nathan East's talent for keeping a subtle yet soulful background rhythm is truly heaven-sent.
one of best concert and best performance.I hope you have long life Eric Clapton cause you are one of Legendary
A brilliant solo! Brilliant Rhythm section!

Amazing bass by Nathen East!
As ancient Greeks have multiple gods... Clapton is the "Guitar 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
Though far better than I could do in a million years, it's just one of EC's best. Just checkout the UA-cam bootlegs and you'll see.
agreed
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.
I totally AGREE .... BEST EVER
The intro and the solo was so in tuned
Whole band is on point man. Nice stuff. Clapton makes me feel great. Much love
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.

Wow congratulations, my biggest dream is to go see Eric clapton live, god has his favorites xd
Traducir a español
That solo must have given a lot a lot of guitar players new goals
SAMBIT DUTTA have you ever heard for guitar player Vlatko Stefanovski? Search on UA-cam..
SAMBIT DUTTA What do you mean new? This has pretty much been my goal for the past 30 years. Still not there but as close as I'll ever get.
Managed to learn it finally!
Eric you really know how to make that guitar flow from within your inner soul!!!
I was there! This solo was like a direct line to God! Will never forget!
two masters of dynamics havin' fun. simply unreal
And to think he was self taught! Listening to records, truly a god!!
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..
yes true at 5:40
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 :))

dont think anyone could have said it better, mate
You're right, Steve is gigantic, as always. God, tears starting to fall.....
Just add Billy Preston with his Hammond and the band would be complete RIP😭
Thats whats great about blues players. From Clapton to Slash, Bonamassa, etc since Improv is inherited within blues you'll see some nights they are in the zone and other nights not so much.
steve gadd on the drum :D
Mr.clapton just like wine, long live the king
Yes.this is the best version.The introduction,the chorus and the guitar are so clean..
Cheers from Colombia.
Es Magia pura el solo de guitarra excepcional ,el bajo colosal y las chicas del coro espectacular un 10 para todos 👏👏👏
Seguro que si ...palabras simplemente ..
クラプトン師匠の近年稀に見る名演！
Wow! What an amazing song perfectly sung and played! It just makes you want to get up and sing and dance to that perfet beat!
always loved this song since it premiered on the ( Am ) radio. back in the early 70s.
Eric Clapton The Legend on guitar, Steve Gadd om Drums, Nathan East on Bass.... AMAZING 👏
His solo is amazing so subtle yet powerful truly Clapton style!
Of course it has to be one of the best cos the greatest legend of all time the steve gadd is on the drums and Nathan east on bass... And Eric Clapton is a legend
Wow Steve Gadd is something else
Amazing !!!! Thank you Eric. Thank you for all your music. You are the best for me. As we say here in Argentina : Eric sos el mas grande !!!!!

Holy shit, as a guy who grew up in the 60's, I'd forgotten how good Eric Clapton was. That was top shelf.

I dig the bass in the intro
Steve Gadd grooooooooved this
Without doubt the greatest guitarist ever rock on Eric ❤
Steve Gadd. The best "feel" drummer hands down.
May god bless and keep you always mr Clapton

lets say he played this song over hundred times
Hope you aint saying that David Gilmour doesn't have feeling? Because I see Gilmour and Clapton as equals in regards to the guitar.
Gilmour is good but he's no Clapton.
@@jasonkeith9317 that definitely works the other way around also. Fortunately we can enjoy both
hehe the gilmour guy... hehe
So many musicians,but one of em knows what to do,whitout any kind of billshit! But there,s a Buddy Rich,Nathan East........ect.! I,m a fan of Ritchie,but Eric are awesome and incredible at that show!!!
Band tighter than a Sunday school teacher. 🤘🔥
Fantastic intro & version
I like this song a lot...
..the intro groove on this one just sooo cool.. 😎
On bass guitar the greatest of all time Mr Nathan East
he can still play! smooth as ever
the man has great range, one of the best
This song is the very essence of Eric Clapton
Can't believe I only found this now, love it
Да, Клептон действительно гений в музыке. Душевно играет. Дружит со всеми. Скромный талантище.
the old bugger is still all class
The man himself! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Back to years ago ..the song always reminds me about somebody...
Being able to pull such a Solo makes him GOD!!
Que hermosura, muchas gracias
Hey, AMAZING one
Anyone knows the place and year of this video?
Intro: awesome
Rythm: awesome
Voice: awesome
Outro solo: more than awesome!!
I remember being thrown in the drunk tank when I was young. They had piped in radio, and when this song started playing, and everyone in the jail cheered!
イントロから味わい深い。
This Play is Super Best Live Take of
Eric Clapton ｡

Never gets old....listening in 2022....
Clapton is God!! Forever and ever...
Sensational version.
Clapton I s the Guitar God wonderful thx
Every other day I enjoy his greatness
My favorite version of i shot the sheriff
Suddenly there I was, centerstage, was I dropping into the zone? Yes, I think I was. I just seemed to float away. Trying to follow where my guitar was going. One Eric’s best jams.
Aun costando la entrada al concierto 1millon € lo vale ! Lo que se ve aqui es insuperable , donde mires y oigas es nivel DIOS !
Outstanding! ECs still got his MOJO. Albert Hall?.?
best version hands down
great upload
Je rêve juste de rencontrer ces brillants musiciens...
