    Andy Fairtweather-Low sings (Amen Corner's) Gin House and Clapton delivers a fantastic, beautifully evolving solo. One of the best ever performances of this song.

    Staggeringly good. One of the many examples that show EC at his career peak during the 90s decade. Awesome!

    When you watch Eric Clapton, you get a complete package. He is surrounded by a coterie of superb musicians who he could learn from and from whom they could also learn.It is musical symbiosis at its forefront. Andy Fairweather Low is an understated musician but if one would keenly observe, his rhythm playing exudes nifty nuances. His vocals are great on this one and right on the dime. And Eric? what one of his TRANCE-LIKE EXCURSIONS.

    Ah, when Clapton is on fire I don't think many guitarists can compete. But it isn't about competing, it's about soul, feel and ultimately entertainment. Clapton has a rare gift that even Hendrix can't beat. That's only my opinion.

    Clapton in the 90s to early 2000s is too underrated... I’d put that up there with any of his earlier stuff. It’s like he needed to get a bit older to combine the fire from his youth with the decades of learning licks and styles.

    So much for the younger generation of fools that say CLAPTON's leads are boring. They seem to think shredding has to be included. While I can respect those that have a shredding ability, to me it's NOT music. It's a jumbled mess of noise with no melody. Fitting in a melodic lead solo into a great song takes much more talent, and if he wanted, CLAPTON could do justice to any song with any musician. Yet he’s perfectly content to take the back seat and let others step out and shine.

Andy does a great job, but that solo...I don't care how hard it is to play, or technique or whatever, all I know is that it almost has a physical effect on me. It may very well be one of the greatest performances ever uploaded on youtube. Thank you, slunky ;)

    Superb version. But I always did like Andy Fairweather-Low's original version with Amen Corner which came out in 1966 or 1967. Lovely guitar work here, matching soulful singing. I love the guitar reverb at the beginning and end and the harmonising guitars.

    • @SoWhat.BigDeal.
      @SoWhat.BigDeal. 5 лет назад

      ...and I believe it has actual 'tremolo' on it, meaning pulsing changes in volume, which usually you only hear in surf music. And for the old Fender amp tremolo/reverb discussion (they mislabel), here's a rare chance to hear tremolo.

    The song now most usually called "Gin House" or "Gin House Blues" - with the opening lines "Stay away from me 'cause I'm in my sin / If this place gets raided, it's just me and my gin..." was originally entitled "Me and My Gin", and was recorded by Bessie Smith on 25 August 1928 It was written by "Harry Burke", which may be a pseudonym of the pianist and songwriter James C. Johnson. It is this song which has been recorded by many musicians over the years under the title "Gin House Blues"

    I dig it, but where did the two thumbs come from? Those who have heard Nina Simone doing this tune. Clapton is the man, but if you want to hear some true Chicago blues style shredding, look towards Johnny Winter (and Bob Margolin, he's rock solid) playing with Muddy and maybe even James Cotton. No disrespect to the man, hell, he even paid homage to Johnson in a fantastic album/dvd, but still, delve deeper, you'll thank yourself ;) Search for "I'm ready," by Muddy for more a taste of Gin.

    Just curious - does anybody know what brand of shoes Eric is wearing?

      Dan, good luck with the guitar. I’ve been playing on and off for 50 odd years and the guitar has been my friend through good times and bad.
