Eric Clapton - Got To Get Better In A Little While [Official Live at Crossroads 2013] 

For sure just did it again last Saturday night for me

Yessir. It's all about the music.

He is the best, simple. How not to love him.

Here there & everywbefe

give me a child

I love Steve Jorden. He is mesmerizing.

Almost 62. Lovin’ every minute.

❤❤❤❤😂😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉qwwq❤❤ 5:12 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😢😮😮😮😮😮😮😮

51 aquí... siguiéndole desde los 16. No habrá nunca otro.

yo con 17 y es de mis favoritos!!

And now he leads the beat for The Rolling Stones!

And Willy Weeks.

Me too….!!!!!

For me too ❤️❤️❤️

Absolutely!

Absolutely ! Damm right sir !!

@@stefanchristoff1507 You are right!!

The man is playing "unconscious". Just hard, steady and no gaps, needless fills and holds the line like bedrock. Amazing percussionist.

This is nice

do you know who is playing bass ? Is that Marcus Miller?...what about the background vocals the two ladies?

@@tommycall355 Bass player I believe is Willie Weeks and 1st female singer is Michelle John / 2nd female singer I don't know.

@@tonyarchermusic1

yes.

62 here and your absolutely right

Simply put, WOW for the ages

60 here and Eric saying cause the sun is gonna to shine on my guitar someday is like Michael Jordan saying maybe I can learn how to hit a jump shot someday......

@Rick Bray VERY TRUE ! I wish I could be brief but..its not easy. But growin up in the 50's was not all about what kids needed.. Being a teen in the 60's meant go out and start saving for your dreams.. But we did find Cream, '67 Doors, Stones, Beatles, Neal Young.. and 50 more greats that were exploding with great sounds and lyrics. Which ALL did take us with THEM and we are generally tougher and more greatful than kids that were coddled. Of course Eric was mostly spoiled and overall as lucky his grandparents kept him close and much- loved AND even got a guitar!!/s. and Art School!! Blue collars did not often get STUFF..but we found a similar friend and we . Getting by with a little help from our friend..and Cream did flaming great blues all their own..a and sooh original. I sure wish he would tour inside the USA..he lives NY AND CALI.. BICOASTAL IS just unfair. Since he lives in Cali. And toured Europe twice in lat 6 years..and many London gigs under the radar. I wish I could at least get their impeccable SOUNDBOARDS. The profits could SAAVE THE WORLD!! OR THE Planet. OR STOP THE CRUCIFICATION OF PEOPLE DYING OR LIVING IN THE WORST OF PAIN. THE FEDS Have NO proof of our sickest overdosing or misusing or sharing what keeps them alive. Feds just now to pharmas who bribe with gifts and vacations worth a chalet ..also given for bribes. As the sick suffer and hi-dose fentanyl From China..is being blamed on pharmaceuticals..which have fractional and ultra perfect dosage which is not made to party. it saves suicides..or..it used to. Eric may be unaware but he is someone who now lives with very tough pain. He gets the best pain help. others are now cut off and aggressively prescribed products that do not help the higher pain levels that do ruin lives. It never creates addictive behavior for those in worst paIn.. because pain patients now and a let a appreciated the reasonable relief and prescribed dose is the only way it works for decades + allows a livable life. I know too much about the deadliest pain that often comes from a long life of hard work or basic sports and even fitness. Or- deformities. And botched surgeries with no re-do. +too many Illnesses or conditions with no cure and all who can not even stand, sit up, eat nd drink..without softening their pain. End of "Why we can't let Feds go on taking bribes and blaming our sickest who can't protest, can't re vel..Can't organize and work to organize some of the 40 million being treated worse than pets and even suicides. yes its as dirty fact. and of course the news anchors don't. share the Feds betrayal of our sickest. or they, too get big money to turn away from betrayals of our vets and our sickest.

oOoO good one

Dude's a human metronome for sure.

I first became exposed to Steve on John Mayer's "TRY" CD. Instant fan.

Yes, and I saw Jordan with the Stones. He did a great job!

Amazing I commented on Max’s reply also He brings the Pocket in & out so smoothly It’s unbelievable.On a simple set.I don’t see no ear monitor or anything.Total concentration.😎

Not a competition, but love how Stephen Stills handles the wah as well.

Great call! Totally agree! He’s a magician on the thing! “Go Back Home” on his first album, and “The Love Gangster” on his Manassas album are just two examples.

Hear him on White Room with Cream. He picks the splinter out of it.

Yes!

"Tales of Brave Ulysses" oh man what great use of a wah pedal - also the very beginning of his solo with it on "Presence of the Lord" - man, just fantastic.

One day at a time.

Right On !! !!

Yeah baby, still doin' it

His higher power saved him. Ask him. Read his biography. Those in recovery know.

I soo admire Eric Clapton both for his musical talent and his conquering drug addiction. 😍

😂 yeah man! And dad is still the king!

Clapton is God

I love how you see the old rockers that use to wear high heel shoes and boots now wear old man running shoes ! Lol

I am too! 👏👏👏 🎸🎸🎸

Same here, been listening to Eric for 50 years unfortunately like many great musicians from my time are in their 70s. Not much time left for these great musicians unfortunately.

Mee too, it is so simple: he is the best of all time, forever and ever.

+Roger Lee Meyzindi The drummer is now playing with the John Mayer Trio

Willie Weeks and Steve Jordan!

+Mario Fletcher Thanks for the info Mario

+Suzy Thompson now ? Steve Jordan has been John Mayer's drummer since forever. He produced almost all his albums. Mayerforever

Steve Jordan used to be in Paul Shaffer's band on the Letterman show.

Nola Style

yes steve jordan your favorite drummers favorite drummer

Hell yeah, the band is workin hard & Eric wow!

Me too Daniel, I can't seem to get away from it either! It's close enough to perfect for me!

And also : " Thanks God !!!!! )

Totally agree. I love this song and love to play along on my guitar.

if we listen we get better in a little while !!! ciao

1:45 1:46 1:47 1:47 1:48

It’s funny he doesn’t find himself a good vocalist

I agree 😎

Ron Reina I'm listening to it in July , but me being in control of me I'm going to join you in appreciation .

🤘😁

Sorry, but it WON'T get better. This tyranny is here for good...

Cold beer the track on full.. I live in the country.. No fecking neighbours. Its loud believe me

Getting worse folks (10/2020)

Been doing that to me for 50 years 🤪

Where you been???

@@matthewdinsdale4782 kkkkk km iiniub

FACT!!!

@@kimberlyfuschini5134 perhaps in your heart... who know!

wow ur really lucky to have him be your teacher

The thing I admire the most about Clapton besides his great guitar work is how he's so focused all the time.

It sure does, a solid beat. Brilliant Steve.

I believe it is Sonny Emory with Steve Gadd.

@@thejawshop-AdventureRecording During the current (2021) gigs yes, but nothing to do with this video from 2013.

@@thejawshop-AdventureRecording nope you’re wrong….STEVE JORDAN

I’m 80 & have been a fan since he first came out. Long live the guitar solo! Listen to the old stuff and you’ll learn about genius. Lind80.

Early 2000's I was an Australian trawling blues festivals in Texas. Happen to be abit dutch ? haha

And he'll always be there for ya. Need to get jacked for a workout or a night on the town? E.C. gotcha. Need to hear someone who is relating to your heartbreak or hear someone tell you their story which is a million times worse, thus, making you feel better about your situation? Slowhand gonna smoothly guide you home. Need to rock out so you can stay awake for that long drive? God will keep your eyelids from getting heavy. Wanna know about some of the greatest American and English music history? Professor Eric will make easy to grasp. Need to learn about women? Eric Clapton can teach you what to do and what not to do. But if you are back at your crib with a lady-friend and y'all are getting romantic? Slowhand gonna greatly increase your chances with her unless You somehow manage to screw it up? Then, Mr. "Clappin" gonna sing and pick you a Blues song that will soothe your loss.

Always down in the double trouble :)

and I am older thandirt & still grooving to Slowhand's music 🎶 Eric Clapton 4evah

Steve Jordan pushes the rhythm like no-one since Buddy Miles.

'Let the Groove be your Guide'

Looks like Steve Jordan on drums. Not sure who's on bass (maybe Nathan East wearing a hat?)

​@@RhiannonFan Willie Weeks was on bass.

Josh Schmoyer: the apprentice

Totally agree with you!

Josh Schmoyer .uk

Josh Schmoyer ... I Agree with you 100% ... Doyle comes from Rock & Roll Royalty ...

Then u must not know about his Daddy. And all the bands WITH SRV ..AND 4-5 BIG SONGS HE WROTE FOR SRV when they were HOT (+never cooled down) .. HE PLAYED DRUMS. Did his own thing too..WAS IN CHGO on tour WITH Charlie Musselwhite no less.the whole band cooked.The place was on fire. The whole band was possessed. Insane guitar. We lost him about 9 years ago..at 61 P.S. thats "Doyle Bramhall 1"

Wow. I was also there. My Seats were “on the moon” But me And my Brother snuck down to get a better feel. It was absolutely amazing .

Amen!

he will never be gone.........not really gone

@@blueberry2846 - I’m happier knowing he is in the world.

Never gonna die. Has to outlast me or there is no God!

He's still here. And in the end, God never goes away.

This all makes people happy to live on Earth! It is worth living even in a time of Russian aggression !!

Love, love Eric Clapton's music 🎶 and very much admire Mr Clapton ❤️

Honed my skills as a Bass player listening to Clapton, never gets old , almost got to see him in Frankfort in 70 or 71 but it didn't happen,came back home and put him on the turntable,ha ha .

Yes Sir...

Joe comes pretty damn close

Love him, still singing Bell Bottom Blues at 67

@@michekids AMEN!🎶♥️🔥⭐☝👏🎸

l

Yeah but your doing it and keeping the music a live with in you...

Right On Brother !! !!

You do realise that Eric Clapton is English?

Some of the greatest blues performers are British. One of them didn't even play a guitar. That would be the incomparable Joe Cocker. American blues artists worshipped his voice and soul.

♥♥♥Σ(っﾟДﾟ；)っ♥♥◌⑅⃝●♡⋆♡LOVE♡⋆♡●⑅◌

23yrs sober, one day at a time. I use the same statement at the end of all my shares, "keep coming back it works if you work it, God doesn't make junk." 😘

Not to mention Doyle plays his guitar upside down, right-handed guitar played left-handed like Hendrix. Didn't notice when I saw him with Clapton in Charlotte in '01.

You saw Stevie Ray Vaughn?

Skydog?

@@johnbergh1961 Yes! He was pretty darn special.

@@kevinfutterman9142 Yes! With Clapton and with the Allman Brother, of course. He brought me to tears.

What about SRV? Do you know what EC told Buddy Guy about SRV on the way over to Alpine Valley the last night?

Willy Weeks and Steve Jordan.

X

Amen!

I was about 14 rows from him the other day and he's still killing it! He tore this song UP at that show too. I'd say this was maybe my favorite song of the night if I had to pick. The ONNNNLY thing I wished he would've done differently at that show was to play at least one Cream song but that's just a selfish request on my part. He's still an all time living legend. No doubt.

@@SimpleManGuitars1973 I saw that same tour 9/21/21 in Nashville TN. It was GREAT!!! I do wish they would have done the electric version of Layla after they played High Time We Went for the oncore. Even though we did get the acoustic version it would have been awesome to get the electric version.

@@markhaus2830 I also wanted an electric Layla and honestly thought he might do both because he has before. The acoustic one was great too. The acoustic song I really was hoping for was Change The World. I was at the Nashville show too btw! Marcus King rocked it and so did Jimmy Vaughan.

British treasure, lol.

Oh yeah , i had just kicked the damn thing, 2 weeks of hell.. now Im drinking one

vincent fusco Was just thinking the same thing so I put this on and saw a like mind.

toetz So happy for you and your loved ones.

@@brianherrington7226 i probably got the corona light , not the corona xtra...but that was scary though

But, not the greatest mix in the world...smudgy.

Give the bassist some love.

@@Nounismisation the vocals could be de-essed for sure

Fucking great, moves me, makes me happy...

Need of the hour

Well, I've been sick with who knows what since early October. Very scary time 8n my life. Somehow I found this maybe yesterday when I was giving up. Thank you, Eric!!

@@rachelcampbell8541 Do what the song says to do. Mr. Clapton knows. God bless.

Underrated comment

There’s the joke about the guy who passes away and ascends to heaven. He’s greeted there by St. Peter, who gives him a tour of heaven. The man sees all the angels and wonderful things. Then they come upon an old man with a long beard and dressed in a robe, wailing on a Stratocaster. “Who’s that?”. “Oh, don’t mind him. That’s God. He thinks he’s Eric Clapton.”

yea you right

So Clapton has a poster of himself?

Amen

since he first picked one up!!!!

raven 12 ç

FOR SURE!! xoxo

I think he was referring to when he is dead! :D In other words it will be his grave marker. If you look at the song as a whole I think that is what he means. Things have to get better because they are not! Just my impression of the song. ;)

Overused comment

AMEN. 🙏

In a little while.., sun is gonna shine ✌️

+Jenifer Young he sings better than never in this song when he wants, he has the most soulful voice in the planet (when he wants)

The old blues singers got their gravely voices from whiskey and chain smoking.

Simply the best

I agree with you

Most singers’ voices have gone bad by age sixty. Eric’s has gotten better wit time. Simply amazing.

Every hear of SRV or in that case Jeff Healey? There up there too.

mark knopflir is way better,erics ok

@@joecarolan6958 Sorry, yes Mark is great but Eric Clapton is somewhere else.

@@davidthomas9188 jeff healy is a hack comperatively to these 2

Hello how are you doing today I hope you are having a nice day today

Hey Mary stay on the same page and watch and listen this man could teach you a lot of things

AGREE 100%

Great here and the same on the Blues Brothers "Brief Case Full of Blues" album

The man is a beast

No doubt! Also on Blues Brother live "Brief Case Full of Blues"......a hell of a musician.

Steve and Willy propel Eric higher than any other rhythm combo of the last 20 years

Yes,yes,yes......it's like he's preaching at the last verse! You can feel greatness when you listen to this man play and sing. Eric......I can't help but believe you have had an encounter with ''Yeshua''!

@@danielgoodaker3773 But thou O Daniel shut up the words & seal the book, when many shall run to& fro& knowledge shall be increased. Even the Kig loved Daniel. Only one who could interpret! Among the soothsayers! Good name. The ancestor who named you did not make a mistake! Peace my bro.!

I counted a lot of riffs And none copied

Checkout old school Clapton....."The Core"....audio

He invented it. He should be able to play it.

How he got the sublime tone he did in Derek and the Dominoes with the wah engaged all the time is a true mystery... it’s genius.

@@Sosu217 Its not a mystery, he's god

Hello 👋 Mrs Cherolyn,I really appreciate your encouraging comments towards my music, The best way i can reach out is giving you guys good music but that seems not to be enough, Here's my private channels to appreciate y'all, where are you from and how long have you been a Fan?

We know him as "Slow Hand" - the ladies know him as "Slow Ham."

@@divided_and_conquered1854 "Slow Ham"? Am I dumb? Don't know what that means

@@NiallHoranspot i'm from Rockford Nil and Roy and it's hard to say how long I've been a fan. I'm not a young woman. When I was a teenager my brother used to listen to Eric Clapton and I heard some of that but I didn't pay much attention. The last 5 to 10 years I've been listening a lot more

@@CheriLexvold wow that's encouraging,i really appreciate you love and concern towards my career may god bless you,have you been to my concert before?

In the space time continuom of things the chances of hm being heard in some-other space and in some-other time will not be by chance but because E.C. has payed his dues time and again he"s not only earned his place in this world he"s earned his place in the universe and I believe that not only GOD would agree and his son but the E.T."s would to.

Well said…. Clapton is God and he is indelibly etched into the soul of rock and roll forever Dr S Good song for progressive religious organizations

Msg same year I Got lucky

Cream, Awesome! Eric in Kingdome 1980 something. Cool.

I'd say that he's in the same league as Knopfler, Gilmour and the late Prince and J.J. Cale....... all masters in their own right......

Nope he is in the league of Jimi Hendrix, SRV ,Jimmy Page ,beck.

@@dpac956 not even close.... J.J.Cale was his mentor, and they were often on stage together.... maybe your exposure to Clapton isn't wide enough to inform you of that. ;)

M.J. Vander Mark maybe your exposure to Clapton isn’t wide enough but Hendrix admired Clapton and covered cream songs, Jimmy Page got inspired to form Led Zeppelin after watching what Clapton did with Cream. Beck has always admitted in interviews he was very jealous of Clapton when he was in the yardbirds and his band mates always talked about him. Cale came later in the 70’s after Clapton had reached his stardom.

@@utsavgurung6283 JJ's After Midnight recorded by Eric was his first solo single and reached #18 in 1970 and his album reached #17 in the US propelling Eric to solo stardom and Eric has often said how JJ was a big part of his success. JJ in addition to being an amazing songwriter was a very gifted guitarist. As far as who's in who's league, personally I liked the way Rolling Stone magazine graphed it years ago, at the top was God, a little below God is John Lennon, Clapton a little below John, and then down lower everyone else.

Clayton's bigger now than he's ever been

Me too

Hi Jack Green, Eric is one(1) of the Best GUITAR in the world,I did read a article in the 90's ,And now we are 2022!

1Juemadre: that song..was the first Reggae hit in the USA he asked Bob Marley if he could record it first. and IT HIT NUMBER ONE. SO.. it was not the sexiest but it has greater EC versions now. And so does Bob. But at that time it it took a big star to introduce reggae and get heard. If i find my fav version I will give u the title later for ya. links get erased sometimes. .. Try "Eric Clapton, Live in Hyde Park".. 3+ million like it. me too. 1997 or 98. look for the same , "Live in Hyde Park" -title .. 1997 or 8.. 3 million -plus Is IT! Its a pretty loaded concert. upbeat. In my old age I replay certain albums. yes we all know many but this one is an allanswering gem for me anyway. often played once a week or-- repeat ! It kind of has a call ( that comes to me to play it) and- repeat! kinda like how the blues started. back in the killin fields one sang out a call and another answered. as u probably know. blues sure do speak to our souls and hearts. not all boo-hoo at all. its more like-seldom 'boo-hoo'. Cheers blues lover..! I got the fever too especially live..sometimes, when possible.. or against all odds.. a road trip! Chicago misses a few. me too.

Amen, CeCe

That's class

Doyal Bramhal II is the "other guy" Clapton hired him for the heat

@@brothermike2506 Doyle is good but I was talking about Eric and how he hasn't played this song well for a long time.
