His playing, singing and stage presence were absolutely fantastic.At first his clowning around on stae was very funny, but after a while I did feel that he didn't need to pull all the faces - we we're all thoroughly entertained, and he could have just concentrated on the playing. He played a lot of blues classics - Five long years (particularly great), Hoochie Coochie Man, Stormy Monday amongst them . Not too much stuff off his new album, surprisingly. He also took time to do his impersonations of other musicians - Muddy, Albert King, Eric (Strangebrew) and Hendrix - sadly he only played a few bars of each. The encore was Knock on Wood, which seemed a strange choice, as it isn't the greatest opportunity to play a great guitar solo to close the show. The highlight for me though was being handed a pick ("SWEET TEA" on one side, his signature on the other) by the man himself at the end - the plectrum was much softer than I'm used to playing with. There was a second amp next to Buddy's, so I had high hopes about a guest appearance by you-know-who (couldn't remember in which part of the world EC is at the moment), but of course he didn't show. A great night nonehtheless. Martin - London BTW - thanks to Josh Ritter for his weekly MP3s - downloading them are always the highlight for a dull Monday in the office. _______________________________________________________ Get 100% private, FREE email for life from Excite UK Visit http://inbox.excite.co.uk/ --=_--SlowhandDigest-- From: "Apurva Parikh" Subject: 2001 Shows for Trade - I have three Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed Digesters, I have the following three Eric Clapton shows from the 2001 tour available for trade: Cologne 2001 (2 cdrs) Ft.

Nakhla" Subject: Key to the Highway Mp3? Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII I absolutely LOVE the live version of Key to the Highway that EC was opening his shows with on this current tour. Unfortunately, the boot of the show I went to was cut short and I didn't get that track!!! It was my favorite song of the whole night, with the possible exception of Somewhere Over the Rainbow. Anyway, does anyone out there have an .mp3 file of this song from the tour? I'd really love to get one of his show at the MCI Center in Washingon, DC, but any rendition will do. E-mail me if you can help me out! Thanks! Steve Nakhla sdnakhla@home.com --=_--SlowhandDigest-- From: "loraine taylor" Subject: EC on the Jools Holland CD. Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed Eric's contribution is the last track on the CD, Ray Charles' "What Would I Do Without You" Here's the news article about it from the Jools Holland website, at: http://www.joolsholland.com/latest.htm NOVEMBER 2001 "Jools' new album, "Small World Big Band", will be released in the UK by Warner Music on November 19th, and in Europe and the USA in early 2002. "Small World Big Band" features Jools performing duets with some of the biggest names in the music world, including ERIC CLAPTON, Sting, Mark Knopfler, and Mick Hucknall. The complete track listing can be found [by clicking] *here*. Jools visited George Harrison at his villa in Switzerland for the album's second track, "Horse To The Water", which was the former Beatle's first recording since undergoing radiotherapy for a brain tumour. George, who co-wrote the song with his son, Dhani, completed the track with Jools on Tuesday 2nd October." _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp --=_--SlowhandDigest-- From: "Robert F.
