Eric Clapton Unplugged DVD

Format: Pre-Owned DVD

This laid-back, live, intimate session featuring Eric Clapton’s bluesy guitar playing is quite enjoyable–if a bit limited in scope. With little lighting and frills and a small group backing him up, Clapton picks up his acoustic guitar and leads the listener down memory lane. Clapton is clearly on his best behavior as he engages in minimal small talk with his audience and lets the music speak for itself. The erstwhile Yardbird and former member of Cream and Blind Faith riffs through some dozen-plus songs including “Before You Accuse Me,” “Tears in Heaven,” “Walkin’ Blues,” “Alberta,” “San Francisco Bay Blues” (in which Clapton thankfully cuts loose a bit), and his great hits “Layla” (written for his ex-wife, Patti Boyd Harrison) and “Old Love,” a standard that garnered big applause. But the simple set and sparse stage can barely contain the energy that fills the arena when Clapton launches into “Rollin’ and Tumblin’,” a raucous, rousing bit of blues that Clapton is certainly still up for. This video is primarily for Clapton’s most ardent fans, providing some heartfelt, soulful instrumental prowess in addition to an aging British rocker singing the blues as well as a white guy can.
