Eric Clapton - Crossroads Revisited: Selections From The Guitar Festivals (6LP)

Founded in 2004 by legendary guitarist Eric Clapton, the Crossroads Guitar Festival has given fans an opportunity to witness truly historic performances by some of the world's greatest guitarists. And while fans have been able to relive those magical moments thanks to a series of successful DVD and Blu-ray compilations, only a few of those performances have made their way to CD. That will change as Rhino introduces a 41 track collection packed with nearly four hours of live music that has never been released on CD or digitally.

'Crossroads Revisited: Selections From The Crossroads Guitar Festival' boasts 41 live tracks, the collection includes a selection of landmark performances from all four Crossroads Guitar Festivals, which were held in 2004, 2007, 2010 and 2013. A veritable "Who's Who" of guitar music can be heard on this set, including Clapton, Jeff Beck, Gary Clark Jr., Robert Cray, Billy F Gibbons, Vince Gill, Buddy Guy, B.B. King, John Mayer, Carlos Santana, Joe Walsh, Ronnie Wood, and Jimmie Vaughn, just to name a few.

Amazing performances by Clapton are featured throughout the set, including his cover of George Harrison's Isn't It A Pity and a smoking electric version of Layla that was included as a hidden track on the Crossroads Guitar Festival 2004 DVD. But it's Slowhand'son-stage collaborations that really shine here, like playing After Midnight with J.J. Cale, who wrote the hit song, and breaking out Blind Faith's Presence Of The Lord with Steve Winwood, who was in the band with Clapton.

Naturally, the all-star jams deliver some of the collection's most unforgettable moments. Among the highlights are Paying The Cost To Be The Boss with B.B. King, Robert Cray, Jimmie Vaughn and Hubert Sumlin; Five Long Years with Buddy Guy, Ronnie Wood and Jonny Lang; and Steamroller with James Taylor and Joe Walsh.

Held every three years since 2004, the Crossroads Guitar Festival raises funds for the Crossroads Centre in Antigua, a treatment and education facility that Clapton founded in 1998 to help people suffering from chemical dependency
