Hey guys. This is a song that was voted for by Patrons on my Patreon page and I want to thank you guys for your support. I think this was an excellent choice and I had loads of fun getting this one down note for note. Just one particular note I’d like to make about the song. During the verses, I heard Clapton palm muting at different times and also switching up between using pull offs/hammer ons and picking every note. I think the goal here is to get a general idea of what he’s doing and feel it out for yourself. As opposed to memorizing exactly every spot that he’s doing this. If you miss a palm mute or hammer on here or there, no big deal. Get the riff down and have fun with it! I really feel that this is a great tune for any aspiring blues player. What are some other essential blues tunes you’d like to see on the page?
as I recall Clapton was treated like a guitar god when the first 'supergroup' Cream formed in 1966 ... until Jimi Hendrix first played onstage in London on 1 Oct 1966 and Eric was backstage trying to light a cigarette with trembling hands ... "I'm dead" ...
@@adrianmiller1971 Just kidding. Green tape hehe. And used object tracker in Final Cut. Looks like it did a great job of tracking the instruments every movement 🙄
I know right. Wish I could have gotten that but when I keyed it out, other colors on screen were keyed also. I could have done more tracking but that would have been a huge edit job.
The funny thing is he himself thinks it’s crap. I believe he made a mistake with the timing somewhere in the middle of the 2nd solo but it just so happens to sound incredible. A glorious mistake if you will!
Maybe being on heroin might have helped... Strange brew, white room, tales of brave Ulysses...he certainly never played the same afterwards...yet a legendary player, songwriter and singer nonetheless.
Ha, caught you. Now we know why we never see your face. You ARE Eric Clapton. No other way to play this so convincingly. Great job; just absolutely top of the pack.
Beautiful. Still the best on TH-cam. Would love to see you do a few Boston covers - More Than A Feeling, Don't Look Back, Long Time, Rock N Roll Band, Hitch A Ride, Peace of Mind. Would love to see your take on them.
you did it nearly perfectly! the only thing you did not achieve, is the wide and elegant vibrato of Clapton.. (I myself tried for years to play this solo and style) 👍
Hello! I'm from Ukraine, so I don't speak english good, but your videos really good) I think I watch them almost 1.5 year. But I don't understand what I have to learn to play fast moments in solo, sweet child o mine I think the hardest solo for me, I mean fast moments) Can you give me advice please?
Absolutely brilliant! So much of the main riff has always been a challenge for me to get that perfect mix of palm-muting, what notes ring vs palm mute, and you absolutely nail that! As you always do. :)
I cannot compliment you enough on this exquisite replication! I've been viewing Crossroad interpretations on TH-cam for many years but there's always some part of it that's not the way Eric Clapton did it. This completely Nails it from beginning to end incredible😊
Nailed it as usual. Not sure how many people would be interested, but I'd love to see you do Rock Bottom off Strangers in The Night, by UFO. That Michael Schenker solo is a masterpiece and its hasn't been tabbed out on TH-cam.
Not only a wizard on the guitar but look at that chroma key compositing! Tell us you work at Industrial Light and Magic without telling us you work at Industrial Light and Magic. If only your talents would lend themselves to something off of Sports by Huey Lewis and the News :)
Perfection my late fathers fav Cream Guitar 🎸 Solo he literally forced me to learn it perfectly 😂 took me like 6 months practicing in my room to get that solo right 😂 looks easy but Clapton puts a lot of Nuances in his playing .
you're great!!! Due to your great ability, I ask you a question: could you transcribe the solo of the song "wild saxophone" by the stray cats (brian setzer)? especially, "the passage of many quick notes". Thank you!!!
Woah! I received a heart from Mr. Tabs?! Wow! Thank you Mr. Tabs. You inspired me to play guitar and now I'm watching your videos and learning it. Thank you.
thanks - that was great - were you smacked out on heroin as I understand Eric might have been at the time of wearing this kind of coat ? Thanks for providing the notes for what I've roughed out for some decades now - recorded in 1968 - wow
Hi Mr. Tabs. Your videos have been instrumental to me learning a bunch of songs so far, and I am eternally grateful. Would you consider doing one for Iron Maiden - Dance of Death. Thanks!
Just outstanding man ! Note for note and that is some really good guitar playing that last solo is crazy. Most people improvise but you have mastered the song my friend.

Well... you dont have any Santana on the page
Voodoo child!!
Feelin Satisfied - Boston
Johnny Winter - Be careful with a fool
Bro the guitar is les paul 🤣🤣🤣 you made it making us fool
Over 50 years later and still no one has smashed the minor pentatonic quite like Clapton did with that second solo.
He nailed it pretty hard but I think that’s very subjective. I think EVH did a marvellous job.
@@Mr.Tabs.Guitar.Lessons yeah fair point! Great playing by the way
What makes it even better is the way Clapton swings from minor to major and back! Like Leslie West does in Mississippi queen!
SRV? It's all good and over my head😎

Ok, what the hell is going on with your guitar - I think I'm tripping
WOW! Note for note and not one hiccup. Not even Clapton himself could recreate this iconic blues number, but you did! Fantastic.
Extra points for the green screen Fool overlay :)
Green Screen?
@@Mr.Tabs.Guitar.Lessons well the chroma key overlay....
@@adrianmiller1971 Just kidding. Green tape hehe. And used object tracker in Final Cut. Looks like it did a great job of tracking the instruments every movement 🙄
@@Mr.Tabs.Guitar.Lessons The shadow beneath your hand kinda gave it away. It was good though. 👍

Been using and loving your content for a while keep up the good work my guy, also white room also by cream would be a fun one to do
Yeah, White Room is awesome, especially the outro solo. Would love to see Cocaine too, my fav Clapton solos.
Yes, White room and Cocaine
The fact that Clapton improvised this blows my mind. I cannot comprehend how someone can be that good at guitar, it’s insane!
The funny thing is he himself thinks it’s crap. I believe he made a mistake with the timing somewhere in the middle of the 2nd solo but it just so happens to sound incredible. A glorious mistake if you will!
And he was only 23 years old 🤯

@@pierregaude1528 he was not into heroin yet, it started in 1971.
Your guitar playing is great, of course, but the bass line is perfect, too.
And even the costumes are wonderful.
That's my trusty bass playing companion. He never misses a beat! Maybe he's too perfect.
Eric Clapton’s greatest guitar work in my opinion
Seriously, that solo alone is a masterpiece!
it sounds wonderful tonight
This and some of the Bluesbreakers stuff.
The green screen guitar in a nice touch! Awesome tutorial as always.
took me hours to notice this, freakin' hilarious

I like the way you dressed!!
pretty cool, thanks for tabs!!

Hitch a Ride has probably my favorite guitar solo!
@@dtuck1076 agreed. It's so melodic and those harmonized guitars are mind-blowing!
Hitch a ride!
Down 2 the crossroads, fell down on my knees!
Man, you’re just nailing them all down to a tee.
Wow. And with the notation. I’m blown away.
saved my day
Amazing. Anyone who can pull that off with the same feel as Clapton is a great player!
Cool costume and guitar (the fool guitar) 60s
, psychedelic style, Clapton one of the greatest guitarist of all time
You did awesome on the bass part too.
I love that vibrato! Very Jimmy Page like and so cool
You did that body paint with green screen? It moves so that's why i asked :) Awesome work again!
This is excellent in every possible way. Great production, excellent and accurate tabbing, playing and you've nailed the tone! Fantastic! Cheers! 🤘
For a second I thought you actually bought “The Fool” SG 😂
NICE
My lovely Cream's cover
you did it nearly perfectly! the only thing you did not achieve, is the wide and elegant vibrato of Clapton.. (I myself tried for years to play this solo and style) 👍
Many thanks, more blues tunes would be great thanks again
Great foot stomper!
Il have great fun learning that love that song
Great video. Thank you. Look at that SG!

But I don't understand what I have to learn to play fast moments in solo, sweet child o mine I think the hardest solo for me, I mean fast moments) Can you give me advice please?
Adrian Smith from Iron Maiden does a killer job on this song
Great, a 100% perfect cover with the same SG than GOD.....
Hi dude
Really nice one.... as usual
Thank you for sharing
Let there be rock
Can you do Hail To The King
Absolutely brilliant! So much of the main riff has always been a challenge for me to get that perfect mix of palm-muting, what notes ring vs palm mute, and you absolutely nail that! As you always do. :)
Nice "Fool SG" 😄
I just noticed you probably used a green guitar and green screened the Clapton guitar on it. Very creative
You can choose a colour other than green. That's just the "common" name.

Che pezzo MR.TABS sei un grandissimo e bravissimo congcongratulations you are the TOP.yeah.👍

Siiick!!!
Great job on this. Gonna have fun with this one.
great as usual, nailed it...need more ZZ Top please, thanks!
Could you do Slow Dancing In a Burning Room by John Mayer?
Perfect
great
masterpiece cover. Well done!
I cannot compliment you enough on this exquisite replication! I've been viewing Crossroad interpretations on TH-cam for many years but there's always some part of it that's not the way Eric Clapton did it. This completely Nails it from beginning to end incredible😊
Clapton does not read music like most great guitarists but he was born with perfect pitch ✨✨✨🎸✨✨✨🏆
"Mr Tabs is God"
Brilliant 🎸
Cool guitar, great playing 👌
If that's the case. Maybe a complete analysis of the duel from the movie "Crossroads"? 😁
YES PLEASE FINALLY SOMEONE SAID IT. But he could leave out Eugene’s trick bag there are like a million videos already. But not even one for the duel.
Can you comment about your amp and guitar settings, etc. thanks. Great job!
Really impressive overall but you should slow down your vibrato on bends like at 2:55 , it sounds too fast and nervous.
This was awesome thanks man! Can I put in a request for The Stumble, Peter Green?
OMFG I DECIDED TO LEARN THIS YESTERDAY WHAT ARE THE ODDS 🤯🤯🤯
White Room please
Hot damn that was awesome.
Awesome!
Pretty good. It would have been better if the G string had been in tune.
Nailed it as usual. Not sure how many people would be interested, but I'd love to see you do Rock Bottom off Strangers in The Night, by UFO. That Michael Schenker solo is a masterpiece and its hasn't been tabbed out on TH-cam.
Awesome man👌. You gotta play Return to Serenity-Testament next!
Love this one,great to jam too.White room is great too!✌😎🎸
Where was TH-cam and awesome teachers like Mr. Tabs when I was learning to play a thousand years ago?! Great job!
I know-it makes me weep!
Not to mention the half speed function!

The great Eric Clapton in '66. Can you do more 60s-70s rock/metal/punk songs. I mean, can you do Blitzkrieg Bop?

Did you superimpose those graphics?? They’re moving around a bit!
I should have stopped with hits, instead of the whole sheet! 🤷🏻♂️
Just outstanding man ! Note for note and that is some really good guitar playing that last solo is crazy. Most people improvise but you have mastered the song my friend.
What a song. Struggled with this on and off for years. Will get in to it now. Thanks mate. Greta threads too!
