In February 2021 Eric Clapton’s live shows at The Royal Albert Hall were canceled due to the global pandemic. Determined to play, he brought his band together in the English countryside. In the absence of a live audience, he decided to record the performances. This release is the culmination of their sessions together at Cowdray House, West Sussex, England. - เพลง

"This one's for Peter!". Hats off.
Eric Clapton, Steve Gadd, Nathan East, Chris Stainton. A quartet of greatness. 👍 😎
I thought maybe that was Chris Stainton.
He's been around. I guess they all have.

you stole my words
Amen to that. What I would give to be at the Garden this Sunday...
I believe that somewhere in the world, there are people who feel the same emotions that I feel when I listen to masterpieces like this song.
It just amazes me that after all these decades, Eric Clapton's voice is still as smooth, on key and solid as it's ever been and his gift of being able to play the guitar the way he does, just shows that he's by far one of the greatest guitar players of all times
Smiles, hello Mary 🌺 😊
He sounds better than ever.
No question
Peter could blow him away on vocals. Loved em both
After reading he was in bad health, it's wonderful to see him playing and singing so well. Never underestimate Slow Hand
This a registration from February 2021. Probably without Jab.
Amen to that ❤
He's been on tour lately. He was in New Orleans just a little over a week ago.
..lol ... He's good there because you can't hear him play his guitar. Did he play his anti-vaxx records with Van Morrison ?
Eric Clapton was in bad health because of the C-19 jabs - apparently the side effects were so bad he thought he would not be able to play the guitar again.
Peter Green needs to be acknowledged as one of the greats along with Eric, Jimmy and Jeff. How Peter is denied is beyond me.
I agree. My opinion is he is not as accessible as the aforementioned
.. maybe but at least Peter is the best and true singer of them. Crapton is an awful singer.
@@catholiccowboy8545 Clapton has an awfully nice bank balance though 👈
Word
@@MrJenklns .. good for him ! Since the early 70s he's only in for money. I heard he has a rich contract with Fender, he's not supposed to play in any other brand of guitar than Fender.
"This one is for Peter" ... a wonderful introduction and then a fantastic interpretation of a great song ... awesome. Chapeau Mr. Clapton
Who'se that peter?

Real, natural, organic tones with no effects. This is so full of life.
true!!! not like this new pc made stuff... its getting hard to find this quality of sound nowadays...
and im not that old... 36 years old...
Dear Eric…don’t ever stop…we need you!
Please, god, never leave this man to die.
Qué Dios nos escuche 🤘🏻🥃
Dear Eric, so good to see and hear you back after what you've been through! All my best wishes to you!
Down the Rabbit Hole and Back Be Strong Eric Like Your Music.
Yes, I agree, and I have lost all respect for the industry tools who turned against him for speaking the truth.
@@marilynmantis5409 Please could you explain to us uninformed middle Europeans?
@@DornGeorg Some musicians in America, Robert Cray for one, spoke out against Clapton for talking about his experience following administration of the miracle potion. I don't know if you're trolling or if you actually want an answer. I would imagine you can find out anything you want to know regarding this online.
This is only person that I would pay money to see. So wonderful to see him back and in the zone. I have been an EC fan since the beginning with the Yard Birds. What an evoltion throughout the years. Play on!!!
Was just thinking about the bands he played with!! I give my grandkids lessons on these great ROCK GODS!! What it must be like to jam with this LEGEND.....💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼💕💕

What a privilege to be alive at the same time as the legendary Mr. Eric Clapton.
Its such a blessing for one British blues player to publicly pay respect to another great blues payer of his generation shalom Eric
I'm no expert but I honestly don't think his acoustic work gets nearly as much praise as it should! The electric guitar work is wonderful too but there's something extra special about his acoustic work.
I think his acoustic bluesy playing only gets better. His electric skills have naturally dropped off due to his age but this stuff is only getting better
He’s THE BEST on an acoustic guitar. It’s not even fair.
Let alone how he can play like that and sing at the same time.
Steve Gadd is amazing
All fantastic musicians! So glad Clapton and his band recorded this whole album!
" This one is for peter..." He talks abaout Peter Green. the genius who wrote the black magic woman.
Thanks for clarifying that 👍
You are confused, it's about me...Wake up!
It's gorgeous!
Back when graffiti started popping up all over London proclaiming "Clapton is God", Clapton would correct journalists during interviews by saying "no, they mean Peter Green". Such tone, whether he was playing a strat or a Les Paul. Some of the best phrasing, in or out of the blues, and his singing sounded effortless. People don't realize that Fleetwood Mac started out as a blues band built from the rhythm section of John Mayall's blues breakers; Peter replaced Clapton in that band.
@@ajsmusic2561 yes I am still confused
Wow, they don’t have do to anything. Just play man. Everything is flowing like a water.
I respect the sound and heart of a master 🙏🏼
You are so right! Eric just keeps flowing right along and "these guys" especially chris have been with him forever! I know keith and the stones have been close to steve jordan for years, i would love to hear steve gadd play with the stones even though charlie still was the one and only for that band, but i digress, what i wanted to say was how amazing that eric, jeff beck and the stones are STILL giving us amazing live performances, God bless them!
Esplêndido! Voltou a me alegrar cantando e tocando suas belas canções! Parabéns meu ídolo Éric vc é o melhor! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙏🙏
Evrencan, dostum seni burada görmek çok mutlu etti :)
Merhaba Evrencan!! Ne güzel tesadüf seni burada görmek :)
(Tesadüf değil aslında!)
Yes, very smooth guitar playing too!
Clapton can still sing as well as ever.
Yes he can still
"this one's for Peter"....what a beautiful thought by EC....his acousitc playing simply blows my mind along with his singing. This type of small intimate setting works so well for him.
Some people may view what Gadd is doing in this as “simple” “dumbed down” “easy” but in reality Gadd is the ONLY drummer on this planet to be able to display this kind of discipline and control. There’s such a high amount of complexity in his simple playing. He’s a bonafide absolute genius.
That's because he is a master. 🤘
Steve Gadd sets the bar so high that it is a real pleasure and a privilege to be able to enjoy all his performances and his work in time and space. GENIUS. PS-These people beautify the world. They put flowers on every music they play. Blessings! 🍷🎸
Steve Gadd is great.
Always one person in the comments who makes a fool out of themselves by making ridiculous statement. You're one under this video.
A couple of years ago, I read a book from the ’70s by a jazz scholar who himself was an excellent pianist. Among the contemporary jazz drummers he considered most talented at the time, he also mentions Steve Gadd among the half a dozen listed. I guess it hasn’t gotten any worse since then, even if jazz hasn’t become a determining factor in his career.
Incredible , he still has that marvelous voice!
And only getting better. 👍
There's only one Eric Clapton. Lots of imitators but he is truly
one of a kind. Blessings Eric and Cool Runnings. 🎸
She do not imitate Clapp because Crapton can't do that : th-cam.com/video/D8-T09qB6PI/w-d-xo.html
Saw Eric Clapton almost 55 years ago at the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium with Cream.
And here he is still looking and sounding great.
Amazing.
Bewonder Eric Clapton maar het meest zijn gitaarspel " Gewéldig zo Mooooiii ❤🇳🇱👍🙏👋🎸
Eric I adore you. All my favorite music includes you ! Thanks for being unique ♥️
WH-hat 12 string guitar was he playing? Didn't look like a Martin
@@TheBludave mmhhh not sure, but I’d assume it because, as far as I know, when it comes to acoustic he’d choose a Martin guitar. Anyway he sound like heaven to me! I’m so glad to see him shine !
It’s not a Martin, it may be a Luna considering the Moon logo 🌙
The old sock still has it. That was beautiful. Really looking forward to hearing more from these sessions.
King Of blues! Wonderful! Went by Over half century , Eric voice is still wonderful as his fame. Luckily, I presented in his concert 2017 in LA County California after half year of delay. A lot of blessing to Eric Clapton.
God bless you and your buddies Eric! I pray good health to you, your family and friends!
Oh. My. God! This is so stupendously AWESOME! If this isn't prove positive that Clapton's still got it at 76, than I don't KNOW what! Same goes for Steve Gadd, Nathan East and Chris Stainton. NONE of those guys have lost their touch!
I started listening to Eric Clapton in the 60s when he was in the yardbirds and still love his music...
Ditto!! Bought Five Live, For Your Love, - on to John Mayall,etc etc-all through the years.....
I’m not far behind you!
🎶👁👃👁🎵 - same here - amazing
@@mr.gerdjackdaniels5189 -were we not the luckiest people who grew up in the 60’s & ‘70’s??? The best of music, paper drivers licenses, NO COMPUTERS, life was at such a slower pace. Compare it to today with all of this BS, really bad lawlessness, and cops who put their hands in their pockets and say there’s nothing we can do when a REAL crime happens. And WE thought WE had kangaroo courts! Let’s go Brandon!
I started listening to him 10y ago and im 26 now...and i dont think this mans music will never pass me by...its simple, when something is good it will always be good
I am watching the full dvd on release day which is November 12th and I am stunned…..again! Eric just keeps growing and improving with age. He is well past the age where most artists hang it up but his voice sounds as good as ever. His acoustic playing doesn’t get talked about enough. Superior touch playing almost completely finger style and his solos are about perfect. The man knows his way around the fretboard. His phrasing and solo style are unmatched and he never plays the same thing twice. There is a lot to take in here and I am hearing some things in his playing I haven’t heard before. It is so annoying watching him play acoustic in his live shows in arenas because people won’t shut up and listen to him play. Everybody has to scream, yell, and clap in the middle of a song so the rest of us can’t hear him. No issues with that on this video. You can hear every note and he doesn’t hit a sour one at all. He also surrounds himself with the best musicians and you can tell these guys have played together forever. God bless you Eric and I hope you stay healthy and happy and bring us more music like this. Music heals!!!
This is pure art. Jesus lord this sound good. I am happy that I grow up with artist like Eric clapton and mark knopler. Salute eric!
Thanks Eric. Always a pleasure listening to a master craftsman. Been listening for 54 years and never get enough.
Love Eric and glad he can still play and sing!
I started listening to Clapton in ‘65 when he walked in my Uncles store and bought a ‘59 sunburst
Clapton's acoustics are always soulful and awesome.
#1 unplugged since he recorded it. And still. 26 million copies sold
That was amazing Eric Clapton will always be my idol for my whole life
God!
Good luck, then

@Taylor Gleason I don't know if you're a internet troll or not, but I'll never get what drives one person to shove his religion wherever they find a place. Unbelievable
@Taylor Gleason As it says in the bible .... Man created god in is own image and that is why every religious sect has it's own version of god.
Greatest of all time forever 🙌. Thanks Eric.
he's not even close to the greatest
@@zipzip8239 Have you ever heard of the word subjective?
Whether sung by Fleetwood Mac or Santana and now Eric Clapton, all are done so well and one of my all-time favorites. Simply Marvelous.
Three of the best groups of musicians ever. But in the case of Black Magic Woman, I have to go with Santana.
Lockdowns and vaccines don’t work in stopping the spread of covid. Children’s test scores and businesses get impacted by the lockdowns.
@@legendaryTMNICO What does your comment have to do with Eric Clapton and the song Black magic Woman, NOTHING. Your comment is so out of line at this time. Get over it and I have never gotten Covid, vaxed, so stop being so dramatic and go and enjoy some music.
@@traveller5212 Traveller, just saw this reply, a bit delayed. The one by Santana is hot and I have the CD it is on, so listen to it alot. For myself, the original by Fleetwood Mac is, for me, where it started and I am hooked on it. May all be well with you in this Dec. 2023.
Santana was inspired by Gábor Szabó, the great hungarian guitarist of 60 ´-70´, song "Gipsy queen"....
Just love the piano work of Chris, Eric on acoustic is just brilliant, Steve on drums and Nathan playing a real double bass. HEAVEN
Nathaneast and Eric Claptom
It really doesn't get any better than this.
Absolutely marvellous, Splendid
Ohhhhhhhh!!! Oh my God!!!!
From Carlos Santana, Peter Green to Eric & Co.
@@diegocontreras9171 wrong order.....peter green, santana then eric & co.....granted santana made it famous but peter green wrote the song
th-cam.com/video/hRu7Pt42x6Y/w-d-xo.html
@@mikelast7918 The song itself is nothing (standard minor-key twelve-bar blues); it’s the Santana band arrangement and Carlos’s playing in particular that makes it catch fire. This rendition would be fine if Clapton had any pick-less acoustic lead-guitar technique, but clearly he doesn’t have.
Extremely delighted listening to you!! version on may fav song 🎵, you're an extraordinary brilliant man, voice stay as it & you age beautifully. Take care n God bless 🙌🙏
The song, it's on my video clip created wk ago, on fb.
Wonderful to see the great Eric still rocking on and sounding great.
.. lol.. Poor Crapton .. He's just an amateur today : th-cam.com/video/D8-T09qB6PI/w-d-xo.html

Beautiful tribute to Peter Green Eric’s guitar work and vocals are just beautiful and his incredible band makes The Lady In The Balcony another Clapton masterpiece
Wow! Very smooth and flowing! Thank you so much Eric for paying tribute to the late Peter Green ❤️👍 From one great guitarist to another.
I love Clapton's voice singing this song. Excellent acoustic performance!
Nice to see one the very greatests still kicking it at a high level. Thank you Mr. Clapton and the rest of the group.
Clapton is God, no doubt
Thanks for posting these on TH-cam, Mr. Clapton. I have been a fan since I first heard your music, and I appreciate your integrity.

“This one’s for Peter”. Great!
Very beautifull tribute of this song... as always, full of good taste, congrats to all of the musicians, and to Clapton. May God bless you all
Fabulous version Peter will be smiling I’m sure - beautifully understated interpretation & what a band! 👍🎶
.. I doubt he would smile at that crappy version.

@@rastamanch-b4964 ... Peter, he threw up.
Clapton is my generations heartbeat. We do not have a time in our life where he (or his music) hasn't been out there in the limelight. As we near retirement age and he should be long past retired, he's still putting himself out there! I'm sure he doesn't read all these posts but... Thanks for the lifetime of music and all that you've done to bolster other musicians careers, bring the Blues to the forefront along with your own flavor mixed with your influences from Legends past.
He is my favorite guitarist and now he's also my favorite singer.
beautiful,wonderful, classic, perfect. Absolutely 100% a master. Thank you E.C.!!!! Love you sir!!!
So good to hear that, his voice is still so beautiful 💖
Clapton ha suonato blues per tutta la sua vita, adesso ha la bacchetta magica, trasforma ogni cosa che suona in qualche cosa che viene dal profondo dell’anima. Grazie Eric.
I'm grateful & inspired every time I hear Eric Clapton. Magic musician for sure.
Someone totally at ease with their own status can always find time to pay homage to others. From one of my lifelong heroes to another. God bless.
Well said.
Thank you,,you people are awesome together!! Thank you so much!!
The man just gets the job done whether he's on a 6 string electric or 12 string acoustic. Timeless musician.
I have watched you eric sine when introducing the Cream. I have always been taken by the talent you, and its members had. In the decades since, I have watched you produce phemomenal soul moving music. I thought by now we were getting old. Then I just heard the beginning here, and thought again how special Eric Clapton can make music. sound in this new decade. Thanks.
Clapton siempre sorprende con una genialidad !!!! Exelente version . Sobre todo el final blusero !!!!
A good, honest man. I wish there were more like you Eric 👍
Thanks sir. Great to hear some real music being played in these dark grey times. Again, thank-you.
Steve Gadd is all over the place...He's amazin'!
Eric Clapton is undoubtedly one of the strongest modern music´s pillars.
Mr. Clapton...i became a big fan of yours. You have a great kind soul. You were the best in Porto Alegre. Come again when you can. We miss you.
Great tribute to Greenie. Thank you so much for the upload, Mr Clapton
Eric is the best. I have always marveled at how easy he makes the guitar look.
So good to hear this.
So good to see that how Eric is well.
Eric Clapton , LE maître de la Guitare Blues nous fait encore vibrer par cette superbe interprétation acoustique de Black Magic Woman . Thanks a lot Eric for U and your musicians . Applause and respect
Best! And so true to him self. He was and is Eric Clapton. Thx für decades of music and thx for showing us younger folks how to play guitar. Thx!
Thank you Mr Clapton. You were one my Dads favorites...Now mine..
Great version from the guitar Legend. Hats off.....
Wouldn't know about this gem of a song if it wasn't for this man right here. I'm so in love with it these days...
This man should not be getting old....the music he gave to the industry & his fans .....hats offf.... Erlc
Excelente trabajo maestro. Siempre estaremos con usted.
Que interpretación tan magistral, Greetings and Blessings from Colombia!
Laudable initiative of Eric, I am a contemporary of his and I have been playing, singing and writing songs since 1964, I am one of the many unknown artists who have lived with music well. without music we don't know how to stay and for 2 years I have been writing and recording songs that I gift as Claton with whom in 74 I shared the stage on his first tour in Australia *
Santana was my favourite singer/musician way back in mid 60s and I used to carry his LP all over , later Eric Clapton from 90s, since then Eric had been my favourite and I still listern to his everlasting voice at least three four times a week. He is truely a ledgend.Good luck & long life to Eric.Nihal-Sri Lanka
@Dr Diablory nice communicting with someone with common interests. As i said way back early 60s Beatles, mid 60s Santana, 70s Claptan then Pearljam .... in early 80s ihad the plesure of owning the one and only BMW 323i in Sri Lanka at a time we didn't have an agent here.Nihal
Genial!!! Es increíble que siga haciendo cosas tan buenas. Clapton is god
Love to hear you sing Eric. Thank you.
Now that was sooooooooooo good! Thanks for sharing Mr Clapton and friends ✌️

Great nucleus. Top notch players with him . Sounding wonderful gentleman !!!
Eric Clapton is simply the King of "Unplugged"!!!!!!!🎸 This sounds incredible ! It reminds me of the first time I saw him perform in an old Circuit City store on this big screen t.v. singing "Layla" I will always be an Eric Clapton fan forever because his music is so priceless! 💯
Absolutely amazing and a great way to start the weekend! Cannot wait to get this Bluray!!
that was an awesome take on one of Peter's best tunes. I liked the 12 string and key change. more please!
Quel émotion !! La grande Classe. Merci pour ça.
