Eric Clapton - The Best and Worst Live: The Abuse Years 1974 to 1979

A comp of some of Eric's finest as well as terrible performances during his drunken period. On some songs he's as drunk as a skunk (...slurring, swearing at the audience, sloppy guitar playing...thank goodness for George Terry...), on others, less drunk but pushed by guests such as Carlos Santana and Pete Townshend, he delivers great solos. Was fun to make and listen to once in a blue moon.

"The Abuse Years" is apropos. ..because the drinking was trivial compared to his £8000 per week heroin habit! 😨

Thank God Eric's still around. Huge fan.

ZZ Top Tres Hombres while smoking a Headley Grange no.4 Ha!




The original "wall of sound" from just three cats. Their early stuff is incredible.
I learned to play harmonics from listening to Billy.
Hendrix thought he was pretty good too.

Santana McLaughlin - September 4, 1973 - Civic Auditorium, Santa Monica, CA

They ended their tour in Hawaii. Gawd, their guitar playing was so fast and furious, it was mind blowing!

Ginger Baker's Air Force....so much talent...so much potential...maybe that's why its so disappointing....because I wanted it to be Cream...or Traffic ....or Blind Faith, even...but its an historic jam that might have been incredible live...but meh

Ful Stop...my favorite track off of it. The album is really a return to the great trilogy they gave us.

even if the song is not at all about trains in any way, I am a sucker for songs that have that clickety clack forward drive of trains incorporated into them...liked very much, unusual for me on one listen.

Even though they were "popular", I always felt their popularity was wrongly limited due to the perception of being an artsy band.

thanks

Puddles Pity Party cover of - Lorde "Royals".



Found him by accident a few years ago and been a fan ever since. Weird but talented. He does a bunch of other covers too.

Besides Carlos and JM, the rest of the band:

Khalid Rasin (fka Larry Young)
Doug Rauch
Armando Peraza
Billy Cobham

So in a way, there were 6 virtuosos in that group.

As far as the Hawaii show goes, I've been reminded by my friends who were also there that they played for 3 hours that night (...last tour stop and all...). Sure wish I could find a recording!
