Happy Turkey Day Slowhanders!

For some reason I don't have a good feeling that Warner Bros / Reprise will
do anything significant with EC's live or studio catalogue.  This can be
evidenced by the wonderful state that the recording industry is in at the
present time (can anyone say Enema...er...Emenem?)

Perhaps the good folks at Rhino or K-Tel will realize the assets made from
their compellations of others and pick up good artists like EC and continue
to listen to what fans want rather than dictate to fans what they ( the
record company) want the fans to hear.

Here endith the Epistle.

Hi,

Couldn't agree more and I for one wouldn't mind. However, after hearing
"Come Back Baby", "Losing Hand" and "What Would I do Without You" I would
dearly love to see Eric do an album of Ray Charles tunes (maybe even WITH
Ray!). I think he does Rays tunes fabulously.

Hi,

Thankyou Shinichiro for your reports of the tour in Japan.

In the report from the first show, it's mentioned that Eric is not only
using a new Strat but also a new amp combination. For most of the tour he's
used his trusty Fender Twin Custom Shop plus the Marshall JCM800 head. Has
he really replaced his beloved Twin with the Vibro King plus Tone Master
head?
Does anyone have any pictures from the shows?

Cheers,
Elliot

I think eric switched from ES-335 to Les Paul in Wonderful Tonight. Plays it 
on that song, Layla and SOYL. Not sure what guitars he plays on Circles and 
Somewhere over the rainbow(the L5 maybe?)

Thanks
Apurva

Happy Thanksgiving, DeltaNick.  Here's hoping you and yours are well this
fine day.

I hope you won't mind a question.  I tried to post it to the Digest, but
couldn't get it there for some reason.

The Tourography says there was a Delaney and Bonnie show in Boston at the
Tea Party Club on February 9, 1970.  At some point in the evening, it
supposedly turned into a set featuring Peter Green, EC and Joe Walsh.  A
friend sent me a track which is allegedly from that show, a wonderful 15+
minute "blues jam" with a trio of intricately interwoven guitars.  You can
hear the announcer say "Peter Green, Eric Clapton and Joe Walsh".

Can you tell me anything about this event?  Do you know if there is any more
of this performance available out there?

Thanks for your time.  BTW, when Alice and I saw Mayall in Longview, TX back
in June, I told him you said "hello" and he seemed very pleased to hear from
you.  He was extremely nice as he signed my "Beano" album, sold us a couple
of T-shirts, and posed for pictures.  He was also selling his own "bootleg"
of the recent European tour.  I don't think he has slowed down a bit...it
was a powerhouse performance.
