Eric Clapton - Crossroads Guitar Festival Reviews

Wow, What A Concert

Ignore the fact that they call this title 'Eric Clapton -Crossroads Guitar Festival', as not only is it Clapton, but also some of the greatest Blues guitarists in the world living today. Although the backdrop is a reminder of years gone by, to listen and watch the masters at work is a joy to behold. What could have been better was, if Clapton had managed to persuade JJ Cale to play Cocaine as well as the other tracks. For the true Blues fans, this must be one of the all time great concerts, and well worth kicking off the shoes, cracking a few beers and spending 4 blissful hours mellowing out. The only thing really missing from the concert experience was the warm beer and the portaloos. Grab it while you can :)

How blue can you get

Went straight to the top of my shopping list. Amazing concert and line-up. Doesn't matter you only see it on the box, because the dvd-quality in sound and picture is superb. And what can I say about the music - it's simply the best blues-rock concert you'll ever get to see!! (and that's only after part 1 - can't wait for second part ...)

if youve got the time you will learn

indulge in to the basics of layla

then learn the solos and why not the whole song if you have the time.

well taught for the advanced player

Watch the Guitar Greats

A 2 disc set of the Crossroads guitar festival, hosted by Eric Clapton and includes some of the greatest guitar players alive today. If you play guitar or love your guitar music then this is a DVD that can be played just for the music or watched closely to pick-up the riff and lick techniques. The CD chapter index even includes chapter marks at the beginning of each guitar solo, a great idea!

I thouroughly enjoyed this DVD, watched it several times before returning it in fact.

It really is the next best thing to actually being there :)

Guitar Performances Par Excellence

View at be amazed at the raw talent not only on guitar but many other band instruments - great viewing.

I have died and gone to Blues Heaven

If you like the Blues, think you like the Blues or have ever heard of the Blues, then rent this, and it's sister DVD, and you will hear and see the greatest players and bands ever put in the same place. This is by far the best music DVD I have ever experienced - 2 DVDs = 10 stars of anybody's money.

Clapton has still got it.

The old guys Clapton, Joe Walsh and Larry Carlton superb. The younger artists are best skipping.

Sound and Video quality is excellent.

Clapton is God....well he's getting there

Personally I found this a mixed bag but whats good is great and sometimes wonderful with Eric himself on blistering form. Highly recommended

Out of this World

This is what you call a Guitar Festival.

To see and hear the biggest names in this business is outstanding. You can't help but tap your feet and smile when you watch this DVD on surround sound. Turn the volume way up, you won't be dissapointed. A must see....
