[Slowhand] Rhino / Crossroads II DVD

[Bbanderic at aol.com]

We really didn't expect the complete Clapton set did  we?   One can make a 
strong argument that more of the Jeff Beck  set should have been included as 
well, Jeff and band played a MONSTER set.   As did EC.  Personally, I think it 
was one of, if not the best EC  performance of the 2006/2007 tour.  
 
It sucks that only one Dominos tune is included on the DVD, that's for  sure, 
but I think for the most part Rhino got it right with their song  selections. 
 I agree with the EC song selections except for "Crossroads",  I would have 
definitely included WDLGTBSS instead, the interplay  between EC and Derek 
Trucks was priceless!  It pains me that they left this  one out, it was definitely 
a "moment", thank GOD for bootlegs ;-).  At  least the complete "Blind Faith" 
set is there. 
 
I'm not holding my breath for the San Diego DVD to be released, rumor has  it 
that EC was not pleased with the performance.  The last time that  happened 
was the Fillmore '94 shows, we all know when that was released  officially, 
never. 
 
Also, I keep hearing that the runtime for the 2 disc Crossroads  DVD set is 2 
hours, not correct, it's 4 hours.  With two DL DVD's they  could have fit 
more songs on there IMO.  Oh well, I'll enjoy what they give  us and fill in the 
rest with the boots.
 
Cheers,
 
Jon
