Crossroads Guitar Festival


Eric Clapton, J.J. Cale, B.B. King, James Taylor (XVII), Rocky Frisco
This two-DVD set captures a once in a lifetime event. From blues legends like BB King and Buddy Guy, folk rock artists like JJ Cale and James Taylor, rockers like Joe Walsh, to Eric Clapton who has a little of every style in him, this is an amazing festival in every way.

To see BB King, Eric Clapton, Buddy Guy and Jimmy Vaughn all on the same stage together singing "Rock Me Baby" is incredible. I enjoyed hearing "After Midnight" by the original artist (JJ Cale), and I liked the fact that although Clapton was on stage with him, he let Cale sing it his way.


Riding with the King


It was good to hear these two together,both admirable in their own styles.
Particulary fond of BB's penny arcade,its so relatable.Sounds like they had a good time recording it.
