Product Description

Chronique amazon.fr

Devenu l'intime de Delaney et Bonnie Bramlett lorsque ceux-ci avaient assuré la première partie de la tournée américaine de Blind Faith, Eric Clapton décidait peu après de se joindre à leur groupe. Mieux, en accord avec son manager Robert Stigwood, il mettait sur pied une nouvelle série de concerts. Avec des musiciens tels que Dave Mason, Carl Radle, Jim Gordon, Bobby Whitlock, Bobby Keys et Jim Price (et la chanteuse Rita Coolidge), Delaney & Bonnie et un Clapton en très grande forme se montrent les ardents défenseurs des traditions musicales du Sud Profond (entendons le blues et le rhythm'n'blues) et, de "Things Get Better" au medley de Little Richard, font partager leur passion à un large public. Un très grand disque live ! --Philippe Margotin

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome live album, Mar 3 2004

This review is from: On Tour With Eric Clapton (Audio CD)

The energy of this recording is amazing. Clapton is on fire and the whole band kicks out a strong set of gospel influenced rock and roll. Great stuff. If you like Clapton at his peak (first solo album, Derek and the Dominos) you'll want this. Other sets that this is related too include Joe Cocker's Mad Dogs and Englishmen tour (many of the same people on both) and early 70's Leon Russell.

This review is from: On Tour With Eric Clapton (Audio CD)

I would have to agree the CD falls short of the LP, which I had stolen in '89.

Can either compare to the concert? Do they do it justice?

Between 1969 and the closing of the Fillmore West I think I saw so many great bands that many I've forgotten. Tower of Power, It's A Beautiful Day, Joy of Cooking, Hot Tuna, were all local bands that could really boogie. Incoming was Fleetwood Mac while Pete Greenwood was still playing, the Allman Bros, (all of them) Doc Watson over at the Buddhi in Berkely, but the concert I remember most was Delaney & Bonnie going until the early morning hours, loving what they were doing and seemingly willing to play until we all got old and gray. "I Don't Want to Discuss It," and "Come Out In My Kitchen" blew me away that night. The only comparable performance I've seen in my life was a very old Texas farmer named Mance Lipscomb (Gotta be the inspiration for John Hammond)at the first Woodie Guthrie Folk Festival at Lincoln Park in Oklahoma City.

If you like Delta Blues, (and I surely do) and your collection includes people like Mississippi John Hurt, and Robert Johnson, you are going to love what Delaney & Bonnie do with it, but then if you own a Robert Johnson you already know that :)

4.0 out of 5 stars THE ENGLISH---THEY'RE SO FUNNY, Jan 5 2004

By

Crabby Apple Mick Lee (INDIANAPOLIS, IN USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: On Tour With Eric Clapton (Audio CD)

As much as we share with each other, there are just some things we Yanks and them Brits just don't see eye to eye. As any peek into any English music magazine will show, both Americans and English have enthusiasms neither understands in each other. The English have never understood The Allman Brothers Band. As much as they love country music, soul music and Elvis, for some reason our brothers and sisters in the "old country" never understood the appeal of "Southern Rock"-especially the "boogie" school.

For all its faults, most Americans recognized the fevered swamps of Southern Rock as a part of the American musical landscape. It may not be to your taste; but in was American all right. Around 1970, the Allman Brothers and the company of bands that followed took America by storm. When Eric Clapton jumped right in with Delaney & Bonnie, several other British rockers dove into the pool with him. It baffled most of his countrymen, but we loved Clapton all the more for it. Make no mistake: it's for Clapton that most of us will pick up this CD.

This CD is just plain fun. As it goes, I think only one song, "Coming Home", actually got any airplay. But the album was on turntables everywhere in 1970-1971. The appeal was the loose and joyous atmosphere of several excellent musicians coming together to play and have fun.

Any album which ends with Eric Clapton easing into a Little Richard medley has a lot going for it.

I bought this album while I was in Japan in 1970. The ONLY reason I bought it was because I wanted to get something and it said "With Eric Clapton". Read more
