Summary: Musical energy and soulful bliss
Comment: Unable to purchase this cd which seems so important to all Clapton-fans even in the best equipped music stores in Amsterdam I ordered it through Amazon received it swiftly by mail. Since then I have played it over and over. It captures the energetic performances of a band that knows how to combine musical drive and soulful bliss. As for Clapton: just listen to that solo in 'I don't want to discuss it': without any redundancy this stripped down minimalistic approach epitomizes power and tension in a superbly timed monochordic drone. This is truly stepping down to reach higher.

Summary: Some great guitar rock n' roll
Comment: Have been wanting to buy this for sometime now.
My question is, with new "complete concert" series.
Will this ever be expanded to the complete show? Or is this the complete show?

Summary: Clapton relaxes, parties with friends
Comment: Clapton's earlier adventures with Cream and Blind Faith may have covered the overhead for this album, but for the first time since he'd left the Bluesbreakers he was surrounded by musicians with a similar taste and capacity for precise, very subtle R&B. Again he's playing with heavyweights in popular music, but all the pretense of a Ginger Baker drum solo has been replaced by the sincere effusion of Delanie & Bonnie Bramlett's vocals and the economy of guitarist Dave Mason, who had already orchestrated the mainstream success of Traffic's first two albums. What is on show in the 42 1/2 minutes of this album is an ostensibly modest yet very rich and triumphant live performance, surprisingly so in that it was recorded well after Manson and Altamont had sullied 60's idealism. Perhaps this album reflects the more lyrical and traditional forms into which such idealism would have to be diverted in the new decade, but for all that there is yet in Croydon in 1969 no need to stop dancing and singing along. As the AMG review indicates, Clapton would take the core of Delanie & Bonnie's backing band into the studio to cut not only his first solo album but the equally precise and iconic blues-rock of Derek & the Dominoes.

Summary: A Must-have additon to anyone's music library
Comment: This recording is positively alive with supercharged energy. It is not only brimming with fine performances from many of the hottest musicians of the time; it serves as proof-positive that white kids can, indeed, superbly play blues and soul music. It captures the raw energy of the ensemble performances of the (then) husband-wife team of Delaney and Bonnie Bramblett, and the exceptional backing musicians who would eventually turn up on the albums of countless other stars for another 20 or more years.
Put it in, turn it on, crank it up, and shake your booty to every tune on the CD (you can't resist going dance crazy, anyway). Don't let this one get by you. Get it while it's still in print.

Summary: batcall
Comment: I've already reviewed this. It's one of the best LPs that shows why they called Eric Clapton as a guitar god.
