Topic: Eric Journeyman Clapton

Give the old guy some.  He could hang with the soul masters and they showed love and respect.  Check this out:  http://youtube.com/watch?v=Q3wX1wn-0go

Go to the blues church, kneel, pray and feel the power.

Awesome...I don't know too much about Clapton I'm ashamed to admit, but that was incredible.

Here's one with Derek patiently explaining it to the elder statesman why he believes.

Amen Jeff to the blues church!!!  I felt the power of their music.  Loved the clips.  You can't go wrong watching and listening to Eric and Derek Jam.  Man they are AWESOME.  I don't care how old Eric is he still rocks and rips the blues on his guitar.  They both are the real deal.......guitar gods, oh yeah!!!.  Thanks for the clips.

Re: Eric Journeyman Clapton

Awesome video!  Thanks for posting... for vintage Clapton, check out the cd's Live Cream, and Live Cream Vol II.. you will not be disappointed.  Eric is the one that really turned me on to the blues over 20 years ago...

Re: Eric Journeyman Clapton

Clapton has really shown over the years just how great he is in more ways than one. Such an awesome artist and bluesman.

The only thing I don't understand is why Joe was not at the last Crossroads concert...

I've been told that he was invited but was previously commited to several shows in Europe.

It's the only thing that makes sense to me.

I know that Joe could play one of those kid's guitars with the plastic strings and make it sound good-

Re: Eric Journeyman Clapton

Thanks Angela!  and they close it out playing Rock Island Line by Leadbelly with EC playing washtub bass.  Does anyone realize how hysterically funny that is.?!
