Steve Gadd, Eric Clapton, Billy Preston, Nathan East, Andy Fairweather Low and David Sanchez. What a band! My God we will never see the likes of music like this ever again. They poured out their hearts and souls for all of us to enjoy! 48 dislikes and yes you are all disliked here. If you don't think this is the best music ever than go take your thumbs down to your grave.

I was lucky enough to see this tour. Sadly I don't specifically remember them doing this song, but they probably did. I DO remember thinking it was a really good show, tho. I felt especially lucky being able to see the "fifth Beatle" Mr. Billy Preston. I hope he, George and John are jamming out somewhere.

When Eric was a young lad, he played with a fury matched by none, Yardbirds, Cream, Blind Faith, Derek and the Dominos. Now he can play just a few soulful notes that can bring tears to your eyes. And then you bring back that fury when you were a young lad to show that you still have that spark compared to none. Thank you Eric for all the great years of your music.

This has to be Eric’s best line-up of musicians - Steve Gadd is without peer as a Rock/Blues drummer, so too Nathan East on bass, David Sanchez is a master Hammond organ player as well as being outstanding on other keyboards, Billy Preston has a proven background in the music industry which of course includes work with Beatles ( I swam him live on tour with Tina Turner back in the 1980’s, Andy Fairweather-Lowe has also played with some of the best and clearly relishes his role as rhythm guitarist for Eric…and then there’s the redoubtable Clapton at the peak of his powers on this track. Both solos he performs flawlessly continually increasing the intensity of the music until the composition reaches an emotionally-charged climax of apocalyptic proportions. This track is quite simply mesmerising!

Please never let this video die!!! This is pure heart and soul!

Eric Clapton played this song from deep inside, he put so much emotion into it that came through as he played the guitar. Love it, love it, love it.

Every fiber of my being feels every beat of the drum, stroke of keys on the hammond, notes on the strings and the vocals. Thank you gentlemen for the food for the soul.

I was lucky enough in 2001 to see them on this tour, Last car, Last rider. I had never heard this song before. I saw him again a few years later. I like EC's songs that weren't top 40 hits. Like this one. This is perfect in every way. It's been my favorite song by him since then.

What a fabulous performance by Eric and the whole band. You can feel his emotions in your heart and soul and the band feels it too!

This song on this album is for me the best work that Clapton has ever giving us. At the end of the song watch Clapton smile a Steve Gadd. It's as if he is saying that was the most fucking incredible drum playing I have ever heard. After hopefully watching it you feel as Ido. Blues doesn't get any better than this.

" I wish I could hold you , one more time , to ease the pain " wrenches my heart .

Eric Clapton, Billy Preston, Steve Gadd, Nathan East, Andy Fairweather-Low, Dave Sancious.What a band!

Never has there been a better guitar player than Eric Clapton 💗

This is my FAVORITE Clapton song & possibly his best performance of it.❤ I just feel the music of his blues guitar. Billy Preston is phenomenal - all of them are just awesome. I'm blown away how great a performance, listening repeatedly.

My God I love the live version of this so much

Please pray for all the mothers, Sisters and daughters in Ukrania that cry rivers of tears for the life of their fathers, brothers and sons. God Blessur them all

EC phrasing, touch and feel is unequaled. One bend of a string has more soul and feel than all these so called shredders an ever dream of. EC is the greatest of his generation, who set the bar so high that few will ever reach.

Billy's solo…enough said...and Gadd, absolutely CRUSHING it behind Clapton's 2nd solo.

One of the GREATEST of all time.🎸

The maestro......there will never, never, never be one who puts so much soul and emotion into his performing.... the guitar is an appendage, the Maestro

My absolute favorite Clapton songs. The mournful bluesy sound, incredibly poetic lyrics, some of his best most soulful singing, the amazing llyrical guitar intro, and phenomenal guitar solo. Bravo. I true masterpiece that doesn't get played enough

It’s a performance but you’d have to be mostly dead not to be moved hearing this. Every musician is right there, and we’ve all had our losses. Perfection in the musical expression of pure emotion. Masterful, intense and wonderful.

You can feel the emotions not only when he sings but with every note on the guitar as only Eric can masterfully express! Such a great talent!👏👏👏👏👏

Stev Gadd and all the other lads were something else that night. Heroes that I love!

These guys, and especially Eric, are among the best ever. But beyond that, they also put every ounce of themselves into their performances. So beautiful. So satisfying.

This is on his set list for his European tour he's on now. 2 nights at Royal Albert Hall in London.

Fantastic version of the song!

Over the years,and Im talking years here I was 8 years old and already a fan when he was in Cream. Then I became a huge fan starting in the Layla years. I have remained a huge fan, but I did have a hard time warming up to some of his newer albums like this album Pilgrim. However I now love this a whole bunch. This performance is outstanding. The people out there that berate him as a guitarist just will never get that its not about playing a million notes a second. Its about soul, its about melody. This song has it all. Love Eric.

What a great musician we'll never see another one like clapton so talented!!!

This song brings memories of my griefs and what l am still experiencing.Thank you Eric.You are humanitarian

The loss of a child is a pain that never goes away, I try to refocus my thoughts to happy thoughts of wonderful memories. Thank you for the brilliant music, it goes to my heart. Blessings.

What an incredible band playing with such an incredible musician!!!!!

Thank you for being You♥️♥️♥️🙌🌏🎵🌺

Clapton at his best! FANTASTIC!!

What a song, what a Band, , wonderful and soulfull playing... Tears in my eyes 💖💖🎸🎸

I'VE SEEN ERIC CLAPTON OVER 200X THIS IS JUST ONE REASON WHY

the day that all members are inspired, was perfect!

Thank you Eric.... Lyrism, sincerity and talent ...A MUST....

Over the last twenty years or so, this particular recording has gotten me through so much trauma in my life. It may, in fact, be his best performance ever. The song and performance are so powerful!

The greatest ever and ever musician. Thank you Opa Eric Clapton

Absolutely love this song, absolutely love Clapton. Such a great songwriter, such a great guitarist. Clapton is a man who has such a great feel for melancholy. That sadness born from personal anguish that personifies the empathetic soul. Every note brings to bare the emotions of the song and while we hear him, it is through the filter of our own life that the meaning takes root in the most perfectly personal way. Thank you slowhand, you are the reason I pursue the blues Rock guitar. I love you man you are a great inspiration.

That riff never gets old

He is a humble man which makes everything he does so much greater than it already is. He is all class !!!

One of my favorite EC live tunes. Slow crescendo builds dramatically. Nicely done.

Beautiful song written by a beautiful soul🇬🇧🎸🎶

The Greatest Guitarist Of All Time. Mr. Eric Clapton. Thank You...

Mesmerising Sir Eric Clapton and the extra ordinary musos.

Oh my god this drum is astonishing

Sublime Steve Gadd en la batería, qué musicalidad que tiene, eh. Un maestro absoluto. 👏🏻🤘🏻⚡️

Arguably his best song.

I play this video so often.... I know, and feel, every second, every note, it is overwhelming :-)

I have swam through that river and came out dry on the other side..so much of me in that river.

This was performed with so much heart and soul, beautiful! I think this is my favorite EC song ever

Love this song , and love Eric Clapton‘s talent. Great version of this song ❤️

The Greatest Artist Singer Songwriter Guitarist , Thank you Mr. Clapton,, So beautiful ,,goosebumps chills

PERFECTION is not enough.

That Billy Preston's solo before Eric's one...best part, wow

What’d I’ve give to see this song live. Brings me to tears daily

Wow. Amazing powerful performance. Never better

2019!! U R The best, Mr. Eric!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Maybe you’ll save me from drowning in a River - a River of tears.... Actually you do every time I listen to you and this great band! Perfecto Thank you!

Eric Clapton ist einer der letzten Giganten

My favorite version of a great song.

He reminds me of such a humble man...still has all his band!!

During a solo ,,,No matter what he just played,, he has the “Time” ability to just reset the clock,,, & go into another place ,,, almost all other players cannot do this with such eloquent finesse,,, and this is a mastery of improvisation unequalled,,,, There are better technicians & faster players but that is a straight line which can be trained & learned,,,, what he does is from deep within,,,

Tears streaming down my face . Music from a guy with a deep soul x

Billy Preston shakes Clapton and pushes him to his level... Saw them in 2004 Billy was about to steal the show and Eric had to remember his God capabilities...

wow mr. Clapton....you the man!

One of my favorite of ALL time!

聽著………….我似乎也墜入淚之河！

I saw him three times in concert He is unbelievable

Steve Gadd is a beast on the drums.

Eric is unmatched. Period!

Do I like this song? What kind of question is that? One of the best things ever!

Eric Clapton is just brilliant. Love him 💕💕💕💕😍😍😍

Absolutely fantastic song Thankyou ..Legends

Eric was a magic man with his guitar. Now is the best for me. Thanks Eric for all and God bless you.

Lo mejor!!!!!!! no sé el porqué, pero despierta en mi, sentimientos tan profundos que no podría describir; por mucho, mi canción preferida!!!!

This just to be one the greatest song from Eric

Il concerto più bello, il primo che vidi. Che fortuna! (naturalmente a Firenze, ma stesso tour!)

7:31 One of the best licks he ever played and he knew it.

A touch of magic.

God bless you Eric Clapton.
