Alberta - Eric Clapton (Cover)

Michelle Calder and Christopher Cameron cover a favorite song they both grew up listening to, Eric Clapton's classic "Alberta" at the SJV May Coffee House/Spring Fair on May 27, 2010. A few pinch hitters joined them on this one, with Daniel LeBlanc on piano, Sylvain LaChance on drums, and a great guitar player on bass whose name Michelle never really knew, haha. Help anyone?

Back-up Dancer: Lily Calder

Lyrics:
Alberta, Alberta,
Where you been so long?
Alberta, Alberta,
Where you been so long?
Ain't had no loving
Since you've been gone.

Alberta, Alberta,
Where'd you stay last night?
Alberta, Alberta
Where'd you stay last night?
Come home this morning,
Clothes don't fit you right

Alberta, Alberta,
Girl, you're on my mind.
Alberta, Alberta,
Girl, you're on my mind.
Ain't had no loving
Such a great long time.

Alberta, Alberta,
Where you been so long?
Alberta, Alberta,
Where you been so long?
Ain't had no loving
Since you've been gone.

Good effort - I enjoyed that.

It was covered by Clapton most recently on '1991's "Unplugged" but the song was written by Hudie Ledbetter. Ledbetter was better known by the stage name "Leadbelly". Love the song though.

@MichelleCaldersMusic You're welcome! My head is full of useless knowledge like that! Great performance and great song!
