There's a special place in hell for someone who puts an add in the middle of a Derek Trucks guitar solo!!

the first solo and the last solo, are the massive example of how to improvise playing the guitar....ladies and gentlemen mr Eric Clapton

Just raw as heck. All of them playin’ the guitar like it owed them money.

Eric always surrounds himself with the best of the best and it shows....This is Clapton...

Eric Clapton is an absolute legend. He's the "Slow Hand"!

All Eric Clapton solos are improvised, pure feeling........and often pure genius. It’s what made me pick up a guitar in my early teens and learn....

India. Thank you for helping me cope while being alone during the isolation.

Eric Clapton, the old master. Derek Trucks, the new master.

Now your getting into the very heart of blues, that’s prime , Eric Clapton is the very best . His catalog is extensive, you could play a song a day and take long time to get to the end, come to summer fest in Milwaukee, and fill your heart with 5 stages to listen to non stop for a week, drink eat and listen to some of the greats, right on Lake Michigan, it’s epic every summer, not to miss,

OK, for the record, Eric Clapton is my favorite and most listened to guitarist. That being said, from my first hearing him around 1965 up thru 1973 or so he was on fire, unmatched, the top of his game. After that, for many a long stretches of time much of his playing was just mediocre or boring. But there were still snippets of greatness from time to time. One must understand that this was by choice as his interests and styles changed and evolved over the years. But it doesn't take more than a little dusting off and turning up the amp to get him to show WHY he is the best and that he has not lost any of his chops, intensity, blues power, emotive feeling and musical ability. This song is an excellent example of that. At a later date with Cream, at the RAH Reunion Concert his playing of Stormy Monday proves this out. It's still there, he's still more than capable. And when the need arises he is easily able to go back to his roots, his beginnings, his first love, and play the blues. And play them like very few are able to. Play them like his Bluesbreakers replacement Peter Green was once able to do, but much better. Many often consider Eric down and out of the game as a bluesman, a blues guitarist. But that's the hazard of underestimating greatness, it can so often come back to prove you wrong and bite you in the ass !!!! Great job EC. And I'm so very happy to see you India not just dig this style of music, but really get Clapton. He is a musical treasure that won't be around forever, but you have the opportunity to see and hear him now. And also dive into and listen too the astounding volume of material he has recorded over nearly 60 years. THIS was a good choice !

Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, Peter Green , Jimmy Page.............the Brits that brought American Blues back from the brink........love every one of them

A true legend one of the best blues guitarist and then some a lot of guitar players can do what they call shred but it has no structure Eric can talk with his that is why everyone wants to play on stage with him and I do mean everybody

I'm a blues man who loves hearing the best! Thanks India! Commercial in the middle sucked!

I remember hearing Derek Trucks talking about touring with this band around the world that year. He mentioned Clapton’s playing and how masterful he was about not playing too much. He would give you just enough that you crave for more and that takes a real master to do that. That coming from Derek is a real compliment.

The guy playing left handed with the strings upside down is Doyle Bramhall ii ...I urge anyone to check this guys music, amazing talent .

Eric Clapton - - one of the very best !!!!

The great Chris Stainton on piano.

Hi India have listen to Eric Clapton " river of tears" I think the live version on "one rider one car" is mind blowing, many thanks

Eric Clapton was the inspiration for John Bonamassa to play blues on his guitar.

So good to see the love in your eyes and heart young lady. Not just for Eric, but also for the music, the musicians, and the instruments. Bless you. Makes my heart soar like a hawk.

If you're after more killer blues solo work from Clapton, try looking up his live performance of "Little Red Rooster" with the Rolling Stones. It's from the late 80's, there's questionable fashion choices everywhere, and most importantly, it's fuckin' fantastic.

India got her some Clapton and Derek feels 😍🤪👍🏼

The term "fire" that gets thrown at everything these days truly applies to this song. This performance was unreal. So good it brings tears to me. I'd pay top dollar to hear Clapton play and I'm poor so that says something.

Been a Clapton fan since I was a kid. 71 years old now and still a huge fan!

I have been listening to Eric Clapton since 1967, love his music. Derek Trucks is a fabulous talent-- All the talent on one stage in this is incredible. The Crossroads Festivals were LEGENDARY.

Always down for more blues and/or Clapton. Still say you should check out his collab album with B.B.King "Ridin' with the King." Lots of good tracks, but start with the titular one. :)

Eric Clapton is still one of my all time favorites. I thought you're going to pause it to go take a cold shower. I love your reactions

Eric Clapton. Legend!♥️🎼🎵🎶

What an absolute God given reaction !!! You understand blues-rock-etc!!! Thank you. I'll be following you for a long time to come !! Kudos😜🥰😍🤩😘

The Blues. Might be hard to dance to, but it's impossible to be human and not FEEL this music in your soul. Everybody gets the Blues.

Real musicians, real instruments, playing real, deep down blues!!! Unlike the digital computerized crap generated by soulless techno nerds of today!

I live in Mississippi the home of Robert Johnson, BB King, Muddy Waters and the list goes on and on need I SAY MORE

A master class in blues playing, feel, touch and phrasing and vocals, by the best of his generation!!

Also, LOL!! I love the way your face reacts when Clapton hits the opening first four notes! You feel things.

Saw Clapton 5 times and saw Derek Trucks when HE was 12 yrs old , played at Garton's in Vail CO when I lived there!🎸🔥😁😍

Perfection... The guitarist in the white shirt is Doyle Bramhall II his wife is Renee Zellweger a Bridget Jones Fame.... with Derek Trucks on Slide arguably the best slide player on the planet currently touring with his wife Tedeschi Trucks Band in many years slide player for the Allman Brothers Band. .. keyboard player Chris Stainton ... gained Fame with Leon Russell and Joe Cocker being a member of the Mad Dogs and Englishmen tour.... that's some good shit right there...

At his best, there is a good reason why people used to say "Clapton is God". Superb guitarist and one hell of a voice. You should check out the work he did with the band Derek and the Dominoes - "Layla", "Have You Ever Loved a Woman" - superb.

he tears up those slow blues classics like this one, Stormy Monday or Have You Ever Loved A Woman and of course he is always going to have a first rate band backing him up

thank you very much. since i haven't seen it in a while i'm now going to go watch the whole crossroads benefit concert that this is from. thanks again

Great job, India. Your connection with the music and its soul is such a gift, for you and to us.

Cream ft Eric Clapton - Born Under a Bad Sign is pretty hype too!

Love your channel India. Your smiling face always lifts me up, even when we listen to the Blues.

Eric Clapton is & has ALWAYS BEEN a guitar god! One of the best of ALL TIME! And mercy, HE CAN SANG! I've seen him 5 times in 3 different venues & every single time was an unforgettable experience! The man simply KILLZ IT! 🔥🤘

Chris Stainton (the keyboard player) also played bass for Joe Cocker on "With a little help from my friends." do you remember reacting to that? love your channel btw.

I love these Crossroads concerts he did...so much talent...

Tedeschi Trucks band with Doyle at Eric’s Crossroads concert ! Top class 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

They used to graffiti walls in London "Clapton IS God" Now you know why.

Thanks India and big congrats on over 120,000 followers!

Great performance in the video and equally great reaction from you.

My all time favorite guitarist. My favorite song "The Core."

I love old blues, european and southern usa. Blues blues blues, my second breathe.

Brilliant interaction with this one . Top shelf ... complete artistry .

love your new intro...very classy! back in the day.. Eric Clapton was amazing and still is.. India.. find "Stones in my Passway" Eric did a cover .. old Robert Johnson.. from the 1930s. This is old delta blues.. you will love it

My fav artist.

that what is called a good band. Yep, there is some rough, which shows just how smooth the smooth is - when they want it to be so

Please, please, please keep doing more Eric Clapton! An absolute (and sometimes overlooked) gem from early in his solo career is "Let It Rain".

For those folks who know Derek Trucks is the nephew of Butch Trucks, Allman Brothers drummer. Whew A lot of talent on that stage.

You leave Vicksburg on hwy 61 the great blues highway and go all the way to Memphis but in the trip up there are all of these small towns and all of these old falling down shacks that were juke joints from way back in the day. I have made that trip many times and I learn something new every time

India, I love the way you ‘feel’ the music, by far the best way to react to what you’re hearing. As for Clapton, well in my humble opinion he has always been a blues man at heart and he’s the best

Brings back fond memories of that day in Toyota Park. Eric really killed it and raised the level for all to follow, then brings it home even hotter.

You have to watch the guitar duel between Eric Clapton and Robbie Robertson -----Eric Clapton -FURTHER ON DOWN THE ROAD --THE LAST WALTZ.

I loved your reaction!

If I'm not mistaken, you are the first one to react to this amazing jam from the 2007 Crossroads Guitar Festival! And a great reaction it was! I'm 67 now and I've been listening to Clapton since I was 13 years old!

There ya go girl!!! That's the music that I grew up with!! Good Job India!

Just noticed this one. Blues at its finest. Seen the cream live back in there peak. I've seen the greats but the cream wit EC were the masters of musicians as Eric played with two jazz oriented musicians. Great reaction india

Eric Clapton one of the greatest of the greats and the reason he was one of my top favorites. You should watch his concert by the title of Eric Clapton unplugged . now this is old school and in my opinion old school was better... they actually played for their audience and not to them like they do today. they were more touchable in our day just watch how Elvis Presley sit in the middle of his audience and Janis Joplin pulled the audience up on stage to dance... they were more humble in those days and appreciated their fans. this generation of musicians have nothing on us except for better equipment with more sound effects.

Best 15 min spent... No words need to be said.

Derek trucks. One of the best young players out there. Sounds like Duane allman

Dang. I love this. There is nothing like a great blues tune.

Eric Clapton is my absolute favorite! Has been for almost 50 years.

Ooohhhhhh shhoooooottt!!! Hadn't seen or heard this one!!!! Awesomeness!!!! Total killer!!!!!

6 songs I'd suggest are when he was part of Cream "Sunshine of your love" Eric Clapton "Layla" "Cocaine" "Promises" "wonderful tonight" "Rock and roll heart"

Joe Bonamassa said he is a huge fan of Erics. check out Joe Bonamassa "Angel of Mercy" "Drive" and "woke up dreaming"

Clapton, Trucks, Bramhall, and Stainton together... so much ass, so mercilessly kicked!

Clapton is an absolute God on the guitar. I can't think of a single song he sings that isn't good. Most are amazing. If you get the chance, listen to his recording of "Alberta", "Walking Blues", or "Malted Milk". India I think you'll love every one of them!!

🇨🇦 👍 👏👏👏👏👏👏 Love your face It's says it all River of tears Should be your next Eric Clapton

Clapton did at least four of these Crossroads tours, he invites the best of the best, one has SRV though he could not stay long, each one was three days long, 24 hours each day, the proceeds went to his Drug Rehab center in Antigua which helped a lot of musicians with drug and alcohol problems. Saved a lot of good folks, mostly musicians.

Source of the FIRE we all talkin' 'bout! Now you're on the stuff that the older folks like. Good deal.

As an Englishman, who’s also a pro guitarist,I love Eric, I also live just down the road from him.. Also though check out a countryman of yours.. Marcus King Band ...good tunes to start with are ... Homesick Autumn rains Beautiful stranger One day she’s here But he’s absolutely mind blowing . The boys got voice and chops to die for.

You most likely didn't notice but the second guitarist, Doyle, is playing the guitar upside down, He is left handed and thus taught himself on a right handed guitar,,,,, he's brilliant.

There is so much great music at the "Crossroads Guitar Festivals". 2010 and 2013 have some amazing artists. This line up is epic though!

Absolute greatness! So glad to see Clapton in a reaction video. Check out Clapton and Robert Cray "Old Love".

Blues doesn't get much better than that.

Clapton. Is. The. #goat !!!!!

love your expressions!

I think right after Eric was born a Stratocaster popped out of his mother.

I’m pretty sure that left-handed guitarist has the guitar strung right-handed. He’s basically playing it upside down.

Day b sum sarious blues, baby!!!!! How you not doin da air guitar pretty lady?!!!! Hahahaha. Nice

Damn! I've never heard this. I love it so so much better than his commercial stuff

Check out Tearing us Apart, Lay down Sally and Forever Man. A few of my favorites

I love the Blues

There's you some blues my god I can feel it in my soul

Logginsandmesania, Angry Eyes. God Bless.

OMG!!!! Freaking amazing!!!!! 🎶🙌✌️❤️🎶

It don't get any better than that Eric Clapton and b b king are the best blues guitarists !!!

Love the reaction =) You need the check out Doyle Bramhall II (the guitarist that plays lefthanded with the strings up side down). I'm sure you're gonna like "Mama Can't Help You No More", "The Veil", "Everything You Need", ...

At one point in the 1960s, graffitti appeared in London declaring 'Eric Clapton is God' and this was not a statement about theology, rather his ability to put together total blues on the guitar. An ability he has never lost, but which constantly goes in and out of fashion.

Derek and the dominoes live at the Fillmore . " Got to get better in a little while " & Why does love got to be so sad ? " . Just for a start 🤙

Doyle Bramhall II on second guitar and Derek Trucks on slide guitar, two killers...great players.

You should listen to Eric Clapton and Baby face with Stevie wonder live on the Gammys " How come how long "
