Robben Ford Discussion

[AlChuck]

Too bad Robben wasn't at this show... but despite that oversight, there is a lot of great stuff... Nov. 20 is the release date...

MSN Music's website had a bunch of excellent-quality performances from the show for a while; happy to see that the DVD track list contains all different stuff. I just looked to provide a link but it appears that the Crossroads stuff isn't there... that's too bad.

Eric Clapton's second Crossroads Guitar Festival will be immortalized
on DVD Nov. 20 via Rhino, Billboard.com has learned. The double-DVD
set features 38 tracks from the July 28, 2007, show outside Chicago,
with performances from Clapton, Jeff Beck, Sheryl Crow, Buddy Guy,
B.B. King, Steve Winwood and Willie Nelson, among many others.

Among the highlights of "Crossroads" are former Blind Faith mates
Clapton and Winwood's first on-stage collaboration in 25 years,
Clapton dusting off material from Derek and the Dominos plus covering
George Harrison's "Isn't It a Pity" and a rare live appearance from
the Band's Robbie Robertson with Clapton on Bo Diddley's "Who Do You
Love."

The package wraps with Buddy Guy's "Sweet Home Chicago," featuring
guest turns from Clapton, Robert Cray, John Mayer, Hubert Sumlin,
Jimmie Vaughan and Johnny Winter.
