Another reason is that, early in his career, when he would break a string on his guitar he would change it himself on stage and the audience would begin the slow hand clap during the delay.
This is from From the Cradle album. This album is an absolute masterpiece. Every song deserves a reaction video. Blues before sunrise, Reconsider baby, Hoochie Coochie man, It hurts me too... all of them. Thank you for this video.
Guys, there is an almost unknown album by E. Clapton but which in my opinion is a masterpiece of technique and arrangements. The title is "Just One Night" and it is a live recorded in Japan it seems to me in 1981. And there is a song in particular in which all the technique and skill of Clapton stands out splendidly both as an arranger and as a musician: "Double Trouble ". Listen to him ...
Eric Clapton, one of the greatest guitarists ever and this song certainly proves it. A real bluesy song - I love it. Really appreciate your reaction, guys, as I always do, many thanks.

Finally someone reacted to this amazing performance. There’s another performance the same night - Have You Ever Loved A Woman. He’s on a Gibson. It’s a treat to watch live
Eric Clapton one of our favorite saw him 4 times this is a cover not his song but he does a fantastic job on this tune he is back on tour he has developed tendencies I will try to go see him one more time 😌 thank you guys .
This was a great blues album, showing Eric doing what he can do with an already widely known classic. Catch him from his initial run of sustained excellance, from 1965 to 1972 when he earned his "Clapton is God" graffiti, stemming from the legendary status he gained through The Yardbirds, John Mayall's Bluesbreakers, Cream, Blind Faith, and Derek and the Dominos. He took a long time away from that level of recorded output until this album ('From the Cradle') came out, in the early 90s. He's been back to his old blues-wailing self since then. To see him with the guys who helped to elevate the world of rock to what it was, check out the Cream Reunion, from 2005. Song suggestion, 'We're Going Wrong' ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-tsMLWPD2No0.html
Eric Clapton......Jimmy Page....Stevie Ray Vaugh.....Jimi Hendrix......Steve Howe......Brian May....were considered by Music Critics to be the Best Guitar players in Music History and they Still are considered the Best guitar players in Music History.....so here.....the song and many other song on his albums not commercially produced to the public, display the true essence of Eric's Brilliant guitar playing talent!!!! And all were influenced by the King of the Blues, B.B. King.
congratulations on hearing the blues. please, please check out Beth Hart and Joe Bonamassa doing I'd Rather Go Blind. Make sure you get the Live From Amsterdam version. They will blow your socks off!
I went down a rabbit hole watching your vids. Some songs I haven't heard in awhile. You seem to have an affinity for grunge which I love watching you explore. Two classics that you haven't reacted to is Janis live at Monterey Pop and Elvis's, in the ghetto.
I really like Eric Clapton. In his early years with Cream, he was often hailed as a guitar "god". But there was an underappreciated guitarist (although not by other guitarists, including Eric Clapton) named Terry Kath, one of the founders of Chicago. I think you guys need to listen to "Poem 58", from their debut album (Chicago Transit Authority). It's like "25 or 6 to 4" on steroids. Too often, Chicago is thought of as "just a horns band", but this song displays Terry Kath as one of the all-time great guitarists. Too bad the song is practically unknown. There are only about 5 RU-vid reaction videos of it, and every reviewer is blown away. If your heart isn't pounding form Kath's blistering guitar, you should check your pulse for signs of life. It really puts so many guitarists that came later to shame.
Check out one of Erics early projects . A little band called Derrik and the Dominos. Checkout Layla from the Album Layla and assorted Love Songs. Also check out Bell Bottom Blues, Anyday , Little Wing. The Late Great Duwayne Allman plays on this album as well as Bobby Whitlock s Piano and Vocals. Bangers
🎸💯 🤯 I absolutely love Eric Clapton‼🔥 I've been his fan for most of my life‼ I'm 67 years old so that's a long f#&*ing time‼ You feel me⁉️ He's definitely another 🐐‼
This was a phenomenal lead on this song. Another live song with an equally incredible lead is "I'd Rather Go Blind" live in Amsterdam by Beth Hart and Joe Bonamassa (who has played with Clapton). Another guitar virtuoso.
Love your passion, guys. Very refreshing. Been subscribed since the beginning.... Now you really do need to look into Joe Bonamassa; "Angel of Mercy" live at The Greek Theater would be a good introduction, or "Mountain Time" live at the Royal Albert Hall.... or Joe playing with Eric Clapton doing "Further On Up The Road" live at the Royal Albert Hall
Loving the reactions guys, and to this brilliant Eric gem but you must hear the great Gary Moore now in his last, best and unforgettable performance of Parisienne Walkways - please! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-FiuQ1EbrT94.html
Hmm. Yes Clapton is polished on the Blues pentatonic scale. Yes, he has riffs and licks that are well polished. Because that's what he does, ad infinitum... As a guitarist, I find his playing soooo single dimension and repetitive. I grew up on this stuff, and Pink Floyd and Dire Straits, and Led Zep, and...( I could go on). This does not move me one bit. Sorry... So sue me.
I don't know, if it's one of your patreons, who said it's a live version, but, it's not a live version DUDES! It's from the fantastic album "FROP THE CRADLE"..... With the dog on the album picture! CLAPTON LIVE, IS ON ANOTHER LEVEL DUDED! LISREN TO THE 4 CD'S BOX, CALLED CROSSROADS! YOU GET THE BEST LIVE PERFORMANCES OF CLAPTON FROM THE BEGINNING UNTIL THE 1990'S! IT'S MADNESS! ESPECIALLY, WHEN HE'S PKAYING WITH CARLOS SANTANA, 23 LINUTES OF MADNESS! AND, ESPECIALLY, THE LIVE VERSION OF "HAVE YOU EVER LOVED A WOMAN", 1973! I CRIED DEVERAL TIMES ON IT! IT WAS AFTER HE WEBT WITH HIS BEST FRIEND'S WIFE, GEORGE HARRISON, HE WAS TAKING HEROIN, HE WAS FEELING VERY BAD IN HIS PERSONAL LIFE, AND, YOU CAN FEEL IT WITH HIS GUITAR! IT'S THE PERFECTION OF BLUES MUSIC! YOU PUST LISTEN TO MORE REAL CLAPTON LIVE! IT'S A SURVIVOR! AND, HE WAS THE VEST FRIEND OF JILI HENDRIX, MY MASTER, WITH MY GUITAR! PEACE FROM FRANCE GUYS 👍😂🎸✌️🌹❤️🇫🇷
