| Comment | Live at the civic auditorium Santa Monica California, February 12, 1978 (it seems that the cover (The Swingin' Pig Tsp-Cd-196-6) has the wrong date since, according to the EC Tourography site, this should be the set list of the 12th and not of the 11th)
Eric Clapton - guitar, vocals Dick Sims - keyboards George Terry - guitar Carl Radle - bass, vocals Marcy Levy - vocals Jaime Oldaker - drums Recorded at the end of the "Slowhand ‘77/’78" tour, this blistering Eric Clapton show, originally recorded for the King Biscuit Flower Hour radio show, is an excellent example of how great he had become as a live artist in the late 1970s. Freed of his drug and alcohol demons, Clapton had finally assembled a backup band that gave him both the freedom to take the starlight and the cohesion of being just another band member. From his legendary Derek & The Dominoes band, Clapton recruited bassist Carl Radle, who, with drummer Jaime Oldacker, held down the rhythm over Clapton’s soaring guitar licks. Also on board was vocalist Marcy Levy, who allowed Clapton to focus more on his guitar work by covering the more involved vocal harmonies. The mix of little-known songs with massive Clapton hits resulted in a strong show with great pacing. The Cream hit, "Badge" and his sultry ballad, " Wonderful Tonight" provides the pop element, while classic R&B/ Blues covers such as "Bottle Of Red Wine" and "Nobody Knows You When You’re Down And Out," allow Clapton the freedom to solo as only he can. The rockers are there too, including "Cocaine," "Layla," and his first solo hit, "Let It Rain," which clocks in at over seven minutes. Another highlight is his reggae remake of Bob Dylan’s "Knocking On Heaven’s Door." There are even a few surprises, including the encore, which is a soulful reading of the Broadway show tune standard, "You’ll Never Walk Alone." |
