Customer Reviews of Crossroads: Eric Clapton Guitar Festival 2007
Beck with Wilkenfeld was the high point for me This set is full of blues celebrities, including some I had never seen before, such as Hubert Sumlin, the great ex-Howling Wolf guitarist. There's lots of great guitar playing of course, and all the old-timers (and the youngsters too) give a good account of themselves. B.B. King, over 80 years old, is in surprisingly robust voice and plays as well as ever, though he is very overweight and played his set sitting down. But the highlight for me was Jeff Beck's incredibly imaginative and dramatic guitar playing. Though over 60 Beck has retained his youthful figure and shock of black hair, and continues to sound like a visitor from the future. Following Jeff's every twist and turn and taking her own extended solo was young Tal Wilkenfeld, an amazing talent on bass. Her solo blew me away, and it doesn't hurt that she's cute and radiates enthusiasm. It's nice to see musicians smiling instead of trying to look mean and alienated.
AWESOME
You can tell Eric is really enjoying preforming with everyone. Saw Johnny Winter the next month in Duluth. Being straight myself those 2 really out did themselves. Great Concert worth it. DEL
Good, but not quite up to previous standard
I've watched and listened quite a few times before writing my brief review. Overall, not quite up to the quality of the previous DVD. I find disc 1 has some really nice moments (B.B. King, Sonny Landreth, Albert Lee), but I find it a little weak on guitar star power. Hence, the inclusion of Willie Nelson and Sheryl Crow to try and make up for that shortcoming? I tend to hit the skip button more often on this disc.

>Disc 2 is where things really get interesting. No need to hit the skip button anymore. From John Mayer to Jeff Beck to EC himself to the incredible Steve Winwood this is a real winner. Song selection is really inspired especially the Blind Faith stuff Clapton and Winwood play together. The Clapton performance of George Harrison's Isn't It A Pity is also excellent. Winwood's Dear Mr. Fantasy might be the best ever live performance of that song and substantially improves upon the version from the Last Great Traffic Jam DVD.

>I probably would have bought the DVD for Jeff Beck alone (very hard to find any JB video performances), but it was really great seeing Clapton and Winwood playing together again and doing justice to some old material neither of them have played frequently throughout the years. As much as Blind Faith was overhyped and dissolved very quickly back in 69, truth be told the songs have endured very nicely.
