It Makes No Difference. Band Last Waltz. Maybe my favorite song.
Why Does Love Got To Be So Sad — Dominos. Fillmore East.
Key to the Highway. Same album.
Presence of the Lord. Same album. Clapton was from another planet on those shows.
Dixie Chicken. Little Feat. Columbus.
Bell Bottom Blues. TTB. Lockn. Derek was just perfectly tasty on this one
Old Love. Clapton. 24 Nights. He holds this one sustained note start a solo. And I’ve never heard anything so good.
