Does anyone have the set list for the new Woking show?
Also track times would be great I need to split the one long track
into individual tracks.
Thanks
Daniel

Hi Ivan and all friends,
Thanks for the nice post, you sent me Budokan VCD 2001 and these are
defective;
You've used TDK, I think it's not the problem, my guess is that you might
have used vey high speed burning on VCD's, I've read VCD's can't be burned
in very high speed, but I am really not sure about it at all;
Cheers,
Andre

Does anyone know if BBC-TV will be airing the Jubilee concert in the U.S.?
I get BBC-TV on my cable and can find no reference to it. Yet I can find
where it says BBC will broadcast the concert on TV and Radio. I'm just not
sure if they'll show it across the water.
If anyone has info, please let us know. I'd love to tape this.
Von :-)

folks copies of the EC Birthday Box Set, providing you pass copies onto
others for free if you have a burner.
Please email me full mailing address details.

Having been listening to some of the '93 all blues shows, I enjoyed reading
about Scott's recollections. The most interesting thing about them to me is
the fact that Clapton does so many songs he never recorded, and does a
terrificly varied styles of blues justice. Looking back, I think it was a
heckuva gutsy thing for him to literally do a blues crusade.
Still, to me the FTC tour of late '94 to '95 is even more special. I've
been blessed to hear several of the FTC shows. On each one, once he gets
warmed up, say when Sinner's Prayer or Reconsider Baby make their appearance
and he starts sweating out those majestic blues solos, man, that's as good
as it gets. Whether it's the extended intros to Early In The Morning, or 5
Long Years, or Groaning Blues, or the Freddie King songs, the solos are
different every time. You'd think he'd run out of ideas, but he doesn't
fail. He was channeling all his emotions & energy on the guitar, to
paraphrase an EC quote about his younger days.
I don't know if it's hyperbole for me to claim that during the FTC tour
Clapton pushed his greatest gift - playing blues guitar - to its greatest
heights. It's a crying shame no official live album was ever released (tho
I've managed quite well without one over the years thanks to many friends on
this list).

PAUL McCARTNEY and ERIC CLAPTON will perform a moving tribute to their
BEATLES pal GEORGE HARRISON at next month's Jubilee gig.
They will perform George's classic While My Guitar Gently Weeps from the Fab
Four's White Album. Macca and Eric will also team up on Here Comes The Sun
which George, who died from cancer last year, penned for Abbey Road.
