  • lovin gadd on the drums. the master!

  • why is it only half??

  • My cat just ran out of the room screaming - it's never done that before!

  • @fyom it screamed?

    talented pussy

  • @fyom I can't stop laughing at this, was the volume too loud ??

  • @Eclectic1101 Don't worry about that comment, we had the cat put down. (joke) FYOM

  • Yes clapton is god but go find Kelly Joe Phelps version of this - much better not clamouring to be commercial.

  • so noisy

  • Go find the version by Kelly Joe Phelps.

  • I think this is very good! I think Clapton managed to get that intensity and frustration that the original recording by Johnson had. Of course Johnson managed to do so with just him and an acoustic, but watch the other video with Bramhall and Clapton doing it the acoustic way. I certainly think it's a good cover!

  • The arcane Devil, what the F@#k.Clapton has been through alot of crap in his life.He lost a son for God's sake(Tears in Heaven).He did not mail this one in, I felt the Hell Hound on my trail bro!!!!!!!!!!!

  • its got no edge, its like the christmas special version of this song.

  • I agree. There's no pain in this, no truth. No blues.

  • @thearcanedevil That's such a subjective opinion and completely unfounded, I think what he has done for the blues is a significant piece of work. I think him living most of his young life in poverty, never knowing his father and being lied to for some years about his true parents he has the right to call himself a blues musician. Not mentioning his son's death. Yes, he has gotten famous, but he popularized and propagaded Chicago blues scene throughout his career. Credit is where it's due.

  • This is horrendous! What a slap at the original Robert Johnson. For Clapton to think that he even has a 1/100th of the soul to pull this off is a sad, very sad. Eric, your carreer was just trying to copy others; wish you had come up with something original.

  • @budgely If it wasn't for Clapton not many people would have heard this song or RJ!

  • @budgely You're the slap to his efforts to popularize those old school blues artists to the younger audience. You have no idea how many people have turned to those old forgotten legends because of him. He isn't trying to outplay anyone, he is paying tribute to his idol the best way he can. Watch the whole Sessions For Robert Johnson.

  • Pat Boone couldn't have sung it better.

  • I've got this dvd and its awesome..love this song,.

  • @claptongroupie Which DVD is this?

  • @fc7alibi It's from the "Sessions for Robert J "...and I don't think he's trying to "outplay" him, I think its a tribute to Johnson for all of his wonderful music

  • i love doyle and clapton :)
