I remember hearing this for the first time back in 2002 in Greece when on holidays with a family friend. It was playing in a bar on a projection screen. The whole place went silent when it came on ... and slowly people started to dance! Awesome then ... awesome still!
How can you get any best than the one and only Mr. Clapton himself. Amazing song. The strumming is pretty difficult but it is so much fun. I studied his playing technique and he is just amazing. :) thanks for uploading this. God bless. :)
I fell in love with this song when I saw this concert and when it finally came out on the Pilgrim album I was disappointed. It's much more haunting and beautiful as an acoustic number. Thank God for audio extracters, now I can listen to this clean pure version.
This particular performance is the best version of this song, followed closely by the Mayer duet. The studio version doesn't come close and fails to deliver the emotional and intimate impact. It is most powerful in its raw, acoustic incarnation.
I'll never forget hearing this live on the benefit TV performance. I was knocked out, and then heard Clapton play this live here in New Orleans. Doubly knocked out. Clapton is so much more than a guitar hero, although he does a pretty good job at that, too. I think well of John Mayer, too, although I don't know much about him. But the duet version is nice. This rendition, though, is extra special.
I play this tune rarely, but with feeling when it happens, I hope.

This sounds great on acoustic BUT the studio version is awesome. There's so much going on but it all belongs there. Clapton's the man !

WOW, this guy is truly amazing. It does not matter if it's a Nylon, steel string, Dobro or electric guitar - Clapton can play THE guitar.

This version is the best. The recorded version is second. The Mayer duet sucks.
