Eric Clapton/CA,USA 1988

From the North American tour in September and October 1988, which was held to commemorate the 25th anniversary of their debut, the performance in Laguna Hills, California on September 23rd was recorded almost completely from the audience master, which had good sound quality at the time. Complete recording in good mono audience recording. It is an upgraded version of the sound source that was recently uploaded to the Internet and was distributed up until now. And the performance on this day was also good EC from solos, obbligatos, to backing play for all songs, and in “Same Old Blues”, Clapton’s guitar and Nathan East’s bass showed off a rare heated interplay. In addition, Mark Knopfler’s excellent support was outstanding, and in numbers such as “Crossroads”, “White Room”, “I Shot The Sheriff”, “Wonderful Tonight”, “Tearing Us Apart”, and “After Midnight”, he brilliantly improved the quality of the songs until Clapton’s solo in the middle and end of the song. “Money For Nothing,” which features Knopfler as a tribute, is also a rare gem.
