What can you still write about the exceptional guitarist Eric Clapton ?? In the late 60s the graffiti "Clapton Is God" graced the walls of many houses ... With "Blind Faith", the "Yardbirds" and of course "Cream" Clapton wrote music history, and also as a solo artist is his music and the concerts outstanding events. Now there is in terrific sound quality, a live recording of last year's concert tour - and this double CD is not only for Clapton fans a must !!! Anyone who has seen the Tour, know what I'm writing here. With "Key to the Highway" began the concert, only Clapton on stage, between new and old hits like "Tears in Heaven", "Layla", "Cocaine", "Sunshine of Your Love", the grandiose interpreted song "River of Tears "and the completion of the timeless song" Over the Rainbow "from the musical" The Wizard of Oz "- whom not tears to your eyes, which is beyond help ... 19 songs in total can be found on the two silver discs, from soulful to rock, and more, recorded at the (of course sold out) concert in Los Angeles. With this old acquaintances like Nathan East (bass), Steve Gadd (drums), Andy Fairweather Low (Gitare), Greg Phillinganes and Billy Preston are (keyboards), and David Sancious (keyboards and guitar). As one of the best guitarists of his generation Eric Clapton is the only person who will be honored three times in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame (as a member of the Yardbirds and Cream and as a solo artist).
This CD is, as I said, an absolute must-have, while the live album of the year !!! One should mention, is this concert also appear on DVD - and will probably make everyone else Clapton DVDs in the shade - with Multi Angle function, so that the God of Guitar closely can see on the finger - but why? ? So someone like Clapton, there will be no more ...
