5 out of 5 stars EC at his best!.......2007-07-11

Great concert with a great set of songs- classics! This album just kept growing on me and didn't leave the CD player for months. You really get a sense of Eric's ability to play/sing different styles (blues, rock, etc). The musicians he plays with on this album are all top-notch. The recording quality is a little off but I kinda like the "bootleg" quality it has. The "After Mignight" on here is the best I've ever heard. It's got a real raw sound that you don't get from either of the studio/radio versions I've heard. The "Let It Rain" version on here is also awesome, with a drum jam in the middle of it. If you're an EC fan, especially of his older material, you must have this! If you're a fan of 70's rock and/or blues this is also strongly suggested.

4 out of 5 stars CLAPTON IS GOD.......2007-06-02

A good listen. I especially liked the live version of Hendrix's 'Little Wing'. It is way better than the one on the Layla album. Buy this and enjoy

5 out of 5 stars Never to be forgotten performances.......2007-04-01

I was there at the Rainbow Theatre the night this stunning concert was recorded, seventh row center, having queued up overnight for a ticket. It was my first rock concert. I have been to perhaps a hundred since and none has ever lived up to this mind-blowing lineup. The support shown for Eric by his friends was evident all night and shines through still on this newly remastered album.

5 out of 5 stars Great for the times.......2007-02-23

If you love Clapton you will love this CD. It is my favorite live album of that period of time by EC. Sure EC is better now live but for the early 70s this is damned good. Thats all you need to hear. Buy it and enjoy.

5 out of 5 stars EC's most overlooked Live Album. A must have!.......2006-11-12

By now, you've read other reviewers' breakdown of the genesis of this band and it's performances. While EC's addiction is broadly referenced, this may not be entirely accurate. It's been referenced by others that EC was suffering from the loss of Duane Allman which ended the Derrick & and Domino's era. Whatever brought about Pete Townsend's desire to bring EC out of his self imposed exile, isn't nearly as important has what this album delivers, a great super band playing live, a number of songs we've all grown to know and love over the years. This group, playing with a rawness not often allowed by studios and producers to be released to the public anymore, is a rare treat. The band clearly is not over polished nor are sections of roughness overdubbed by engineers. This album actually captures what live shows used to be like back in the day. That the band is made up of some of the greatest musicians of that time period is a bonus. I've seen EC live later in life, and was very underwhelmed by his lack of engagement with the audience and other band members. I've seen Pete Townsend, Steve Winwood, Jimmy Page, and others in concert (separately sadly) but enjoyed their peformances greatly. However, on this album you can tell EC is actively engaged not only with the audience, but with the other band members. I've purchased and obtained other EC shows which are slicker in their production but non which convey the emotion of this show. I've listened to it over and over again, and it's a permanent fixture on my 8 gig Nano. Which is a high honor as only Mark Knopfler/Dire Straits reside there in perpetuity.
