  • Soo good. Holy Jesus. So great to see him just singing wonderfully, and then bam, man, sick solo. Incredible.

  • 1:27 .... what is he doing ?

  • That is such a typical pianoblues. Very beautiful. Thank you Clapton

  • fuchinkg awesome solo , genious

  • makes the hair on arms stand up... if hair has legs. kids these days. ahah

  • And I can add, that every Clapton live performanced songs sound like originally rocorded.

  • eric the best of his generation i like her

  • Eric sings this song beatifully and my God that solo at the end just cuts deep into your soul

  • where is that video taken from?

  • Best Eric solo.

  • @lostforlost2 ya i dig the first bend and just after it. those first couple notes are like a knife stabbing you ahah.

  • i love how he just stands there haha

  • Clapton should give credit where credit is due. He steals almost every lick from guys who did it 50 years earlier

  • @maxneu It isn't stealing, it is using and developping. He gives credit. He did a tribute to Robert Johnson and always says how much he respects his heroes. And how can he possible play without borrowing from others? You can't play completely new licks. Imagine that every guitar player plays COMPLETELY different. It is impossible. Clapton only picked licks from his heroes and made it his own.

  • @Claptonmaniac24

    It's fine to borrow from others, everyone does. The difference is Clapton does an unplugged album that is lick for lick the exact same as the guys he is covering and claims it as his own, like he is a genuine blues man. He does a good job, I'll give him that, but I think he takes too much credit. Steve Howe, Frank Zappa, neither of them ever play anything I have ever heard anyone else do.

  • @maxneu He claims his own? The original artist is on the cover :P. He just choosed to stay true to the original and keep it simple (not as his electric work).

  • @maxneu I think Eric gives plenty of credit to those who came before him. Listening to Eric Clapton got me listening to all his influences. If it wern't for him, I doubt if I'd know Buddy Guy, Albert Collins, Robbert Cray, Robbert Johnson, Albert King, Howlin Woolf. Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker. He owes a lot to the blues. But he has repaid his debt by the bucket full.

    Steve Howe would tell you to have a listen to Chet Attkins. then you'll know where the clap came from. No copy but influence

  • @maxneu You don't understand the blues.

  • @chickenandbaconclub2

    Haha! And I take it you are an expert, white boy?

  • @maxneu Lol what's with the wild guess at my appearance?

  • @chickenandbaconclub2

    Well, I think it is a safe bet that you aren't an old black blues man in a rockin chair.

  • Wow !!! What a wonderful voice !!!

  • Best solo ever !!!

  • Clapton is GOD

  • CLAPTON IS GOD

  • Awful version.

  • Eric is a brillant and a brave guy. That's what I like in him. He uses his gift for charity and don't hesitate to help others (crossroad center). God bless him!

  • This man is brilliant.. I'd say this is his best and most inspired period.. clean and sober, drive to do it..!

  • @TheAndyMan100 Great notice! I think that Cream and this period is most inspired too. After dependence rehabilitation.

  • very cool!! EC is great and His voice just slays me..won't even go into the guitar!!

    kudos for you!!

  • I love this song, Clapton does it so well. He does everything great.

  • Love watching this drummer in the background - he's like an All-American 'Beach Boy' (I assume), esp. with the ocean hue shirt - but he followed a much better path and is playing with the great Clapton! He makes me smile through all these videos.

  • Shame that I can't hear a note of what the backup guitarist is doing so intently. I can sort of imagine what it sounds like.

  • No, afraid not

  • Can you purchase this on DVD?

  • Best solo ever !!! 3:05

  • I wish I could have piano lessons from Chris Stainton!

  • He looks at lot like 'House' at 2:04, when he's sort of rolling his eyes up and wrinkling his forehead:)

  • Seems odd to me that some of 'greatest' pieces performed during the recording process (this piece as well as "Crossroads") never made it onto the album. There are several on "From the Cradle" that I've gotten tired of easily, but not those 2!

  • Absolute classic clapton, how hard does it look for him not to play right until the end. Great finish!

  • Funny how he grabs his guitar like he's going to play it, and he can't stand there and sing without it:)

    Kind of like Keith Urban posing for Playgirl. . .

  • *Called sorry...

  • How is this Concert/Recording Calles?

  • I like it, sounds like the Clapton that is NEVER off nor bad!

  • funny video lets chat

    ANY GUYS UP? rg

  • Zomb Torrents had it a while back

  • can somebody tell me where can i get a copy of this DVD.........please please please

  • Someone please help me out here!

    I know this is half a step up or down from the original key...my question is: is it UP or DOWN??

    Thanks in advance to anyone who knows!

  • Pretty sure it's down...

  • Eric Clapton is such a special musician. He's in a class by himself.

  • piano player looks like iggy pop:P

    lol

  • true :D

  • best guitar solo ever!!!!!

  • HUGE!

  • Eric is THE MASTER he has golden fingers, and damn that voice melts me everytime, yes yes Im smitten.

  • Lo grabé ese año en un vhs, yo tenia 14 años, muchas gracias por subir este video.

  • The of the DVD is Nothing but the blues. Its out there some where

  • This is an Oficial DVD or sth ?? plz give me the name of it

  • It was broadcast on the bbc many years ago. Called 'From the Cradle' (rehersal)

  • ok that was awesome,

  • "Nothing but the blues" Eric thats true in every single note.

  • thanks

  • I love this!  Thanks for posting!

  • what a f***** nice voice...

  • i love this version, probably coz i love EC, his voice as well as his playing is so powerful

  • awesome guitarist I'm the same way i addicted to eric in alot of reason not only music. he gots talent i up to him like a great music player

  • Clapton is my absolute hero. He has not only influenced my music but my life. I look to Eric Clapton for so much, and i know that may sound wierd but he really has shaped my life as much as anyone else if not more than most. EC, B.B. and Buddy are my greatest Heroes.

  • Clapton has carried the torch well ever since folks were writing "EC is God" all over city walls in the 60's. So what's the future of the blues look like and who's gonna lead us there?

  • are you addicted to eric like me because i am i every day like his guitar work awesome

  • Eric the man best guitar as well as bb king buddy guy

  • Someone just posted the Nothing But the Blues DVD on the bit torrent site, ZOMB. The complete Blues Rehearsals DVD this was taken from is also on ZOMB. Don't pay a scalper when people are sharing for free!

  • I share Nuthin' But the Blues on Soulseek & I think these rehearsal videos from Fillmore San Francisco are off of a video called 'Nothing But My Soul To Save' (Rehearsal documentary footage)

    Great Stuff

  • Nothing But My Soul To Save - tour rehearsal Sept 28, 94, NYC (same tour as 'Nothing But The Blues')

  • Where can I pick up a hard copy of "Nothing But My Soul To Save"? I've had an audio tape of this whole session for years, but had no idea where it had come from.

  • If you look on 'Geetarz' website he has the DVD info posted as well as a DVD cover. Look in his Eric Clapton section.

    Your audio maybe 'Nuthin' But The Blues' ?

    It's the same music but from an actual concert in San Fransisco Nov 8-9, 94, not this rehearsal Sept 28, 94, in NYC.

  • does anyone know where i can find this DVD?

  • try on ebay where i found it (italian ebay)

  • thanks man, im gonna check there. if they dont have it ill just steal your copy haha jk

  • I've got this dvd (blues Rehearsale): it's really fantastic

  • Where did you get the DVD, and how much did it cost you?

  • i found it on italian ebay and i pay about 15 €.

  • i have seen this program on video but it was a friends so i couldn't steal from him! I really want this on dvd too

  • I love how Clapton doesn't know what the hell to do with his hands when he's not playing the guitar.

  • Are they on DVD!!? What is the DVD??

  • How come they don't have Nothing But the Blues on DVD?

  • That's a good question. Someone should seriously email Clapton's people about putting Nothing But the Blues on DVD.

  • Wow, driftin is played on a classical!
