Rhino will, in July, issue a three-CD set gathers nearly four hours of live music from the Eric Clapton-founded Crossroads Guitar Festival.
Every three years, since 2004, the Crossroads Guitar Festival has featured some historic performances by some of the world’s greatest guitarists, but until now these have been confined to DVD and Blu-ray compilations, with only a few of those performances having made their way to CD. That will change as Rhino introduces Crossroads Revisited, a 41 track collection packed with music from great musicians such as Clapton, , Jeff Beck, Gary Clark Jr., Robert Cray, Billy F Gibbons, Vince Gill, Buddy Guy, B.B. King, John Mayer, Carlos Santana, Joe Walsh, and Ronnie Wood.

Clapton is central to this release, with great performances from the guitar legend featured throughout the set, including his cover of George Harrison‘s Isn’t It A Pity and superb on-stage collaborations like playing After Midnight with J.J. Cale, performing Blind Faith’s Presence Of The Lord with Steve Winwood, who was of course in the band with Clapton.
The Crossroads Guitar Festival gets its name from the Crossroads Centre in Antigua, a treatment and education facility that Clapton founded in 1998 to help people suffering from chemical dependency. The festival exists to raise funds for that facility.
Crossroads Revisited: Selections from the Crossroads Guitar Festivals will be issued as a three-CD set on 29 July 2016.

Very cool. Thanks for the info. i definitely will pick this up. Only bummer is the absence of a ABB song.
weird release. first off there were 4 crossroads so why not have 4 cd's instead of 3? second the way its listed as ERIC CLAPTON and friends you'd think some full sets of clapton would be on here. finally several musicians who appeared are missing. as someone pointed out ABB are missing. didn't bo diddley play in 2004?
The 2013 show already has a 2 CD release, so that knocks out a lot from that show.
If it is a "Clapton & Friends" compilation, I wouldn't necessarily expect full sets from him just him jamming with others.
Truthfully you could release it in as many CD's as you want and still not satisfy everyone. I can only imagine the getting the clearances on the artists and songs is a headache. I think that's why the Christmas Jam releases have stopped.
If I remember correctly, Bo Diddley didn't even appear on the DVD release for Crossroads 2004.
John Lee Hooker died in 2001 so I really doubt if he played any of the Crossroads festivals.

My bad. Mistook Bo Diddley for John Lee Hooker. Old age sucks.
