Citation : STEVE WINWOOD and ERIC CLAPTON On Heels of Three Exclusive Shows at MADISON SQUARE GARDEN, Duo Announce A Special 14-City U.S. Tour This Spring
(New York, NY) – After their historic three-nights at Madison Square Garden, Eric Clapton and Steve Winwood announced today an exclusive 14-city U.S. tour beginning June 10, 2009.
After a stunning collaboration at the Chicago Crossroads Guitar Festival in July of 2007 and much speculation, Steve Winwood and Eric Clapton announced three eagerly anticipated concerts at New York’s Madison Square Garden. Those shows featured the artists performing together in a varied set list with Blind Faith classics and solo hits from each artist. Critics acclaimed the shows as historic and some of the best Clapton Winwood work ever. The tour promises more of the same collaborative musicianship that made these men legendary award-winning artists.
Both Winwood and Clapton have long and prestigious musical careers with countless honors and awards to their names. Their musical paths connected in 1969 with the formation of Blind Faith, a group that pioneered the fusion of rock and blues into tremendous studio and stage success. Despite critical and popular acclaim, the band was short-lived with only one album and a brief 1969 tour that debuted July 12 at Madison Square Garden and ended August 24th in Hawaii. Since that final show, Winwood and Clapton have remained friends, but have only performed together a few times over the years for an occasional song at a charity event. The 2008 Madison Square Garden shows were the first full Winwood-Clapton concerts in 40 years. Additionally, 2009 marks the 40th anniversary of Blind Faith and 40 years since they performed to over 100,000 people in Hyde Park, London.
Steve Winwood is currently signed to Columbia Records and released an album of new music, NINE LIVES in 2008. Eric Clapton’s compilation album Complete Clapton was released in 2008 on Reprise Records. The duo’s captivating performance at the 2007 Crossroads Guitar Festival in Chicago can be seen as part of a 2-disc DVD available now from Rhino Entertainment.

EC`s New Year`s Eve Party |

Citation : Hi Everyone.
Here's the report I promised for the 2008 New Years Eve Party at Woking. Just a bit of background. this is a party put on by the " Guildford Sunday Group" which is basically Guildford Alcoholics Anonymous. The Party takes place at the Woking Leisure Centre. The Party is dry which makes for a superb atmosphere.( and very easy on the Wallet)
The band do two sets one before Midnight and the second set starting just after Midnight This years band was called " The Fourth Edition" The line up was Eric Clapton - Gtr and Vocals Andy Fairwether Lowe - Gtr , Mandolin and vocals Chris Stainton - Hammond Dave Bronze - Bass and Vocals Henry Spinetti - Drums Gary Brooker - Piano and Vocals Pete Townshend - Gtr and Vocals ( unable to attend due to illness although gear and gtr tech present) Sharon? and Michelle?( Lady singers) - Backing Vocals
The first set was as Follows
Knock on Wood - E Reconsider baby - G Judge a book -G Santa Clause is Back - A Route 66 -A Will The circle - C Five Long Years - A Wonderful Tonight - G ( Best version I have ever seen or heard) Shake Rattle and Roll - E
The band then took a break, we had the Big Ben chimes on the Big Screen with the fireworks in London and then the Band returned just after Midnight.
the second set was as Follows
Midnight hour- E Hoochie Coochie Man- A Blueberry Hill - E Sweet Souls Music - C Putting on the Style - A Gin House - E Willie and the hand Jive -A Whiter Shade of Pale - C Cocaine - E
The Encore was Old Black Joe - E
This was a great gig, the version of Wonderful Tonight was exceptional Claptons sound superb and a truly great lead break. Clapton played a Clapton Strat all night, Andy F-L played a cream coloured Strat with what looked like just one Humbucker, I'll check this as I know his repairman and used a mandolin for putting on the Style. Pete Townshend was set to appear and his gear was there. He would have used a small Fender amp which looked like a deluxe reverb. Clapton had two tweed twins although they may have been Cornell amps hard to tell from where I was. The mix was great, very nice sound for a gym hall as well as the lighting which was excellent. I have been to these parties many times and it never ceases to amaze me what a great atmosphere it is and how people have such a great time with not one drop of booze. Everyone takes picnics and just has a great time. Clapton is at his most relaxed and his playing is effortless.the songs are clearly well known by the band but often Gary Brooker throws in a few ad libs which leaves the rest of the band confused as to where he's going which leaves a smiling happy Clapton just having a gig with his mates
Great fun , already looking forward to the event next year.
