Gatefold triple LP

All tracks remixed! Audio upgraded and remastered

Featuring Phil Collins on drums

In 1990 and 1991, Eric Clapton performed 42 nights at the Royal Albert Hall in London; 18 shows in 1990 and 24 in 1991. During the run of these shows Clapton performed with three different line-ups: a rock band, a blues band, and an orchestra.

24 Nights: Rock features 18 songs, has a running time of 2 hours 15 minutes and is available here on 3LPs. The rock show lineup varied from four, nine or 13 band members, and the musicians included Nathan East, Ray Cooper, Greg Phillinganes, Steve Ferrone. The four-piece in 1991 featured Phil Collins on drums.

Highlights of the songs performed include "White Room," "Layla," "Pretending," "Running On Faith," "Old Love," and "Lay Down Sally." The set also features excellent cover versions: a restrained reggae rhythm version of Bob Dylan's "Knockin' On Heaven's Door," a blues-rock twist on the Bob Marley anthem "I Shot The Sheriff," and the great J.J. Cale song "Cocaine." The concert ends with the Cream classic "Sunshine Of Your Love."
