This classic album demands a revisit. For those who have been a little dissapointed by Clapton's releases since heady days of Cream, Blind Faith and the Dominos, this live performance represents something of a return to form. Backed by a more than capable backing group (featuring Nathan East on bass and the legendary Andy Fairweather-Low, formerly in Amen Corner, on rhythm guitar) the album, which is a mixture of blues covers and acoustic remakes of his own songs, highlights the best of a mixed career. Top tracks include yet another version of the Bo Diddley classic Before You Accuse Me an improvement over the electric cover with Robert Cray of the Journeyman album, Nobody Knows You When You're Down and Out from the seminal Layla album and a fun version of the blues standard San Francisco Bay Blues". Clapton's tour-de-force, Layla, is given a bluesy laidback feel that really makes this classic equally good if not better that the original. Top all this with a few more blues standards and the fact that it's pressed on 180 gram vinyl and you've got a great package.

In My opinion it almost defies description and it is currently my favorite in my collection. If you love acoustic music this is a must have, throw your CD's in the trash and get this baby on vinyl. You'll thank yourself in the end.

I've had the DVD for years, it is one of my favorite music DVD's. But the stereo album is so open, and the tapping of Eric's foot is so clear on the right channel. I'm so pleased with this version, I love the open sound field the warmth and tone of the different gutairs Eric uses on various songs is a wonder to behold.

This LP is an excellent example of why we collect and use Vinyl. The quality is equal to the Japan Slowhand pressing imo.
