Oh my , that performance started on the soles of Mr Whitlock's feet and slowly rose all the way up to the crown of his head in perfect synchronicity. Nothing but pure heart ,soul and devotion . Quite superb .
Bobby Whitlock has one of the most passionate, soulful voices in rock history. A real musical genius. And no one in rock, tells a better story than Bobby.
Such an emotional and heartbreaking song and thank you for the story of your loss. I'm afraid that if that guy had done that to my dog, he would have been in for a good ole Mississippi "hand talkin'.." and probably an ER visit!
Expressway To Your Heart........brings back so many memories. Written by Richie & Charlie Ingui and fronted on stage by my friend, Kenny Jeremiah. Needless to say, one of the great rock and roll songs of the late-60s. At the beginning of my music career (1970), I used to stay at Charlie's apartment in NYC about two blocks away from Fillmore East. His girlfriend at the time was an old friend of mine from high school and she'd let me stay when I'd come up to the city from Philly. Those were great times in my life!
I always loved that song, but now I know the story behind it, it will always bring me real sorrow. I don’t know why he couldn’t find his dog or how someone could do such a thing.
When students ask me what kind of singers I like, compared to the Ed Sheeran types, I just play them this song, and especially at 11:44. They usually hang their heads and stay very silent. :)
And you're not wrong. Eric played and sang this song on the album 'Layla' - and very much with Pattie in mind - even though he didn't write the song by himself ...
I'm probably the only one here who just found out who Bobby Whitlock is but has been a fan of the guy with the electric guitar Moses Mo (of Mothers Finest) for over 40 years. I must admit this is not his best performance though 😁
This is frickin' great...I could listen to Bobby all day, singin' or talkin'!! That electric guitar is too loud in the mix, eclipsing Bobby's acoustic...just sayin'
I love this guy. What a great legend. He deserves happiness. You too Coco. The Dynamic Duo. ❤

I will never listen to Thorntree In The Garden the same way again. Truly heartbreaking. Bobby is such an incredible talent.

Yes
Bobby, we love you in Tulsa. We understand it all. God bless you.
Bobby Whitlock's "Why Does Love Got To Be So Sad" is one of the greatest songs ever. Talented guy...
Love listening to Bobby tell these stories. Such a great musical talent.
A good cat story and a sad dog story. Straight to the heart. Love 'Thorn Tree In The Garden'. Thank you.

Beautiful..
Made me cry then, and makes me cry now..
Never forget this masterpiece
When ya'll hear soul...
Ya'll feel soul...
Thanks Bob...
P.O.W.
M.I.A.
Never Forget

Did the Young Rascals do that song as well? Inquiring minds want to know.
Express way to your heart! First heard it by Amen Corner. The best 'mod' band in the UK!
I always loved that song, but now I know the story behind it, it will always bring me real sorrow. I don’t know why he couldn’t find his dog or how someone could do such a thing.
He's a legend.
Why is Booby Whitlock not in Nashville's Musicians Hall Of Fame?
I think he is soon
Love that performance!
Man Bobby I just saw your show with Clapton 2000 it was great!
Oh my poor dang heart. 40 years.
Beautiful song to end the album.
I was there this night !!!!
Your were very lucky, it must have been magic.
Lucky you!
Why is there so little live recordings or interviews of this man hes so tallented and interesting. Hes a bloody domino ffs.
He has the greatest TH-cam channel with Co Co Carmel. It is all there! It is A gift to us all.
11:44: One of the greatest phrasings in rock history.
Well said. Amazing.

Agreed, that gets right to my gut. Bobby’s got the spirit.
Beautiful!!
So sad that someone would do that! 😟 And, it is a beautiful song Bobby.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Very nice!
I know the story - you told me a few years before your Rolling Stones interview :-(
Why ain't u played at Eric's crossroads jams with ur old buddy.
L. ???
And I always believed it was about Eric longing for Patty .... RAYBANN Austin Texas
And you're not wrong. Eric played and sang this song on the album 'Layla' - and very much with Pattie in mind - even though he didn't write the song by himself ...
@@GABRIELEsongs actually, this song isn't sang by Clapton. That's how it is written in the credits.
@@GABRIELEsongs Bobby sang this song on the album and wrote it by himself.
@@catoohey Yea your right Clapton said Bobby kept him up all night.lol

They really did not need the juice..wish they could have stuck around a while.
The electric guitar playing in the background is absolutely annoying.
