My imaginary conversation:
Eric, you've been a professional musician for close to
40 years with only a brief pause in the early
'70s.You've been repeating the same musical idea's
for the last few years anyway, so, I suggest you take
time out,maybe 3 or 4 years and enjoy your new child
which is something you didn't have a chance to do
with your other children.
You don't need the money or the fame anymore, so spend
these last year's of your life away
from the spotlight.You can always get a gig later,in
Vegas as an over the hill rock star :)

Scott,
This Peacemaker album isn't exactly new. I've had it for some time now, and
I just love it. (It's copyright is 1996, but I think I got it in '98. I like
all the EC tracks... "Sending Me Angels", "What's This World Coming To", and
"You Better Rock Me Baby"... but I also fell in love with a lot of the other
tracks as well. There's even a "Running on Faith"... without EC that's
great. This is one to stick in the car for long trips... I like to "work"
with it on.
I "Urge" you to get this one!!
Tess

This cd has been released some years ago. It must be around 1995. EC's plays
lead on "Sending me angels", "What's this world coming to" and "You better
rock me baby". There is also a version of "Running on faith" (without EC) on
this cd. The song was written by JLW as you all might know.
Other wel known musicians on this cd are Stevie Ray Vaughan, Mick Fleetwood,
Nicky Hopkins and John Oates.

Folks, just wanted to ask a quick question:
Is Crossroads 2 pretty much the summary of all of the best of EC in 1970s
(live)?

Just got a copy of Double Image from the Pilgrim Tour (9/11/98 Alberta
Canada) and been listening to it today, along with a Reptile tour boot from
Houston, and Japan.
I remember Ken's post from weeks back comparing the two tours.
While I don't want to point counterpoint Ken, I have some general comments.
Not totally disagreeing, but basically I feel the Reptile tour setlist was
stronger.
Some general comments;
1. I like the Pilgrim tour for the way it opened with an electric set, then
moving to acoustic set. I also like the string section at times, but I don't
like the fact that Eric had two other guitarists playing on this tour.
Actually though, I think he had them so he could add to the fullness of the
sound and perhaps solo more.
2. I don't like the Reptile tour opening with acoustic.. Too boring for me.
I think the blues set for the Reptile tour was better and the Impressions
were better than the Pilgrim tour backup singers. I like the encores of the
Reptile tour better.
3. As for Eric's guitar playing. I think he played more during the Pilgrim
tour. More as in solos. The Reptile tour had too many Reptile songs which he
coasted on.
Overall, I like the Reptile tour for it's blues and encore sets and the
hits. Pilgrim i like for the opening and the fire of his playing

Well that is exactly what they did for the 1999 Tour Rehearsals for example,
so it would not surprise me! After hearing the brilliant edit on the end of
the Double Image 2 set from 1998, nothing they do will surprise me now .
Upon first listen the Mid Valley release does appear to have been tweaked
subtly - not that that show needed a lot of help audio-wise to begin with.
Speaking of the Budokan 12/4 show - could one of our Japanese speaking
friends tell us what Nathan says to the crowd at the end of the show? I'm
guessing it's "I apologise for Eric playing 'Layla' twice, the set list
generator got stuck, is there an engineer in the audience? Just be thankful
it was not 'Wonderful Tonight'".
Cheers,
Mark Deavult

They just wanted to see if you were paying attention ;)
If it's any help, I do archive the SD posts on my website:
http://www.sysabend.org/users/geetarz/
Follow the link and click on "Slowhand Digest". Sorry it doesn't have a
pretty button, haven't gotten around to that yet. I try to update these
once a week as time allows.
For the AOLers who do not receive the SD at all any more, perhaps someone
could post this information on the Clapton bulletin board there and they can
begin to participate again.
Cheers,
Mark Deavult

Thanks to Rick Batty, I have a copy of the Budokan show. I am offering to
send a copy to the first 4 responses to my personal email addresss.
Plus, I am offering a copy to the lady who was on my Tampa Tree that I
offered to do some B&Ps with. Please contact me; I lost your email address

Scott,
We need to be careful about how we use adjectives. You got my heart
racing until I realized that the NEW CD you were referring to was
Peacemaker, a CD which was issued over 5 years ago!
Jerry's voice is weak and I was not very impressed by the CD, although
EC did add some tasty chops. I've seen the CD in some used CD stores.
Look for it there, I certainly wouldn't pay full retail for it.......T
