In my opinion Clapton's Best live album ever! The best live version of Crossroads since "Wheels of Fire" which starts off with a wicked molten solo before going into the main riff which is HEAVY! "Hung Up On Your Love" sounds great live with heavy staccto riffs and a sweet ending solo. Great distorted wah and funk chords lead into "Cocaine" Robert Cray really pushes Eric for some stinging flurries on "Further On Up The Road". "Tearing Us Apart" has a great first solo and then a 2nd solo which will put the biggest smile on your face and make you laugh like the Mad Hatter out of sheer sonic joy! Great Gritty vocals from Clapton throughout! Sound quality is really a 10! Why this isn't an official release is one of the great mysteries of the Universe!

This show is just brilliant, I bought it on the strength of Matt's review below, they really are helpful. My fave's are I Shot The Sheriff Hung Up on Your Love (Very under used and under-rated) an outstanding version of Miss You and a storming version of Layla top things off nicely. If you want to hear EC in full flow with the best line up of the 80's (East, Ferrone, EC and Phillinganes) buy this boot. EC is simply pure class!! (Yet again)...

One of the best shows, In my humble opinion, that EC's ever done. Everything is incredible! I first got this show on a tape five years ago and when I heard the opening to Crossroads, I nearly dropped dead! The solo in White Room is absolutely STELLAR! I'd like to know which pickup combinations he uses on these songs! I wish this was recorded on video...
