      Sorry Susan I gotta disagree with Whitlock. The Allman Brothers during this time imo were the best. Personally I am so glad Duane didn't take Eric up on joining the band. Nothing against D and D, love Layla but am addicted to "at Fillmore East".

    Inventing solos like this LIVE, on the spot, that anyone else would be lucky to craft even in a studio, is the legend of Eric Clapton. Few can sustain interest for 15-20 minutes and keep the energy pulsing, spinning out a continuous pattern of ideas. And no back up soloist. That's Eric Clapton at his finest.

      As hooked on heroin as he was at the time, it was some of his best playing ever. The time with cream and the early to mid 90’s when he was back to the blues were as great. These four guys were absolutely awesome together. Ego and drugs torn them apart in less than a year and a couple of months together.

    I saw them October 30, 1970 at the university gym at State U of NY at Albany. The whole crowd was on acid (or so it seemed). I was sitting on the floor about 10 feet away from Clapton...when he walked out someone said "look at him, he's great". He was touched by magic, you could see it and feel it. When he and Duane Allman did the complementary solos to this song the audience was just surfing a big cosmic wave of bliss...they played for 2 hrs., but it was timeless. One of the greatest concerts I was ever lucky enough to be at...everyone was on a high for days afterward. Those WERE the days!

      HI WATT same age as you, and same reaction. Was lucky enough to hear him working his magic on an acoustic guitar in Fla. sometime in the 70's, from the first riff I heard him improvise I knew he was blessed with some musical magic at his core. A friend then told me, "thats Clapton, the guy from Cream" For the longest time I thought I was alone in thinking that his playing got better and evolved higher after they broke up. This version is a rare gem!

    I was at this show, literally sitting on the floor right in front of the two foot high stage. There were two shows and they didn't clear the audience for the second one. By the second set Clapton was tuned up pretty well on whatever he was tuning himself up on, including beer as I remember, but he didn't miss a beat or a note, at least none I heard because I was tuned up myself. A great memory from a great night when the world was young!

    Man...this is something else...very raw...Gordon just driving the whole thing, Radle in the pocket - as usual - Whitlock kind of floating over and under and Clapton, good lawd, top of his game here. What's fascinating to me (I've been playing well over 40 years now) is listening the little set pieces (for lack of a better term) that he uses that are in the other solos of versions of this song...sometimes they go the same way then veer off, other times hits that set piece and just goes in the opposite direction. I grew up on the "In Concert" version but this one...damn...

    Holly molly the whole band is on fire. I’ve heard both live versions from Live at the Fillmore and In concert. Both the band is great. I like the Solo on In concert more than Live at the Fillmore. But the solo here is Clapton and the band at the top of there game. I love the tone of Brownie better than Blackie. It would have been nice if who ever was in charge of the 50th anniversary album would have found some of these recordings and cleaned them up. It would blow people away how great Derek and the Dominos were.

(as were many) and the audience (not evident here) was going quite mad!! that is, if this is the venue I think it to be. not the fancy place with the turning stage and all.. if you couldn't hear the audience, just cause of how it was mic'ed. (we sat to the left on some amps which some N Philly speed freaks stuck us up on). other side was where a band would exit.. you know that audience was so bombed that when they came off (front o the stage, Eric holding his guitar aloft) no one even .. grabbed at them?! just .. kinda went right by people that hey; these guys are freaking Derek and the Dominos, world class and walking right past us!!

Interesting thing to listen for on this track is when Eric plays the riff to "Eyesight to the Blind" at 2:11. Absolutely fantastic show!
