The cream live crossroads is one of the best of all time. It's incredible. And that is a understatement.

Clapton's version at the Cream Reunion Concert at Royal Albert Hall isn't too shabby either. It even had Brian May smiling in the audience. For Clapton this one that everyone knows and loves. Was just another night of improvised guitar virtuosity for him.

Thank you, thank you, thank you! I have loved this cut for years and never thought I'd ever be able to start playing it. I, for better or worse am a "mature", 70, beginning guitar player. This break down helped me so much I can't even begin to tell you. Your method is right up my beginning ally. Learn the basic frame work, understand it, then add the little parts to fill the whole cut in. I can't believe the sounds I hear while playing are really coming from me! Be well and safe peace to you and yours.

This tune has had me stuck for years. So thankful you are showing it and it makes so much sense now. Looking forward to the solo video although I doubt he played it the same twice.

Hi Justin - Thanks 👍 What a super tutorial, mate. Another great gem for us. I've been a Cream/EC fan, ever since I got hold of the "Wheels Of Fire" album back in the late sixties and wrote the "Clapton Is God" graffiti absolutely everywhere😮! This tune is a Must learn for all blues lovers and I'm sure a lot of us have tried to nail it, our own way, over the decades. ☮️❤️🎸

Haven't checked out a Justin guitar lesson in awhile....when did he start doing tabs on the screen? Anyhow, awesome. I'm on a bit of Cream/Clapton kick here lately. Glad to see this video...

Great version, Justin! Personally, I play it around the fifth fret, because of the tone on the recording, although I have seen numerous videos of Eric playing it, and you have it correctly, of course! But ... I just don't like the sound of it there!

Hey Justin how come Eric Clapton always looks like he's flipping the bird when playing cords?

Great playing ... the tone is a bit too bright relative to the live Cream version.

Not by Eric Clapton, by Robert Johnson, 1936.

@mister.costello 13 күн бұрын

Doesn't sound right to me? None of these type of videos do. What's missing?

@KylieKellett 8 күн бұрын

Likely because there’s no bass, the bass is extremely underrated in songs while not always noticeable it’s always greatly affecting the sound and makes it sound fuller, so it would make sense it doesn’t sound exactly right.
