This version is on the DVD that comes with "Me and Mr. Johnson". It is really fantastic how Clapton handles everything. A loud mention to Chris Stainton on the piano, he is really great and a quiet guy who's been around for many yearsand is just like the good wines!!
You have to buy the CD & DVD box set "Sessions for Robert J" from which this video is taken. Amazingly, I believe there is no audio recording available of this song performed by Mr Clapton. This is my favourite Robert Jonhson cover by Clapton. IT IS GOOD!!!
@torivas this is from the sessions for robert j cd + dvd. the dvd bonus is great with live sessions like this plus clapton talking about robert johnson.
@torivas this is from a DVD called 'Sessions for Robert J' It's all video of clapton and his band in the studio playing RJ music, along with Clapton in some old hotels recording, and some good interviews. VERY GOOD. I reccommend it.
@LINKMASTERX It's on itunes from the album 'Me and Mr. Johnson'. You can buy it as a single track off there for $1.29. He also plays it on the Crossroads 2004 album if you can find that.
@torivas The song is recorded on the SET DVD / CD "Sessions for Robert Johnson", only on the DVD. The recording here is part of it. PS: My best DVD ever !!
@Harlehz i think its just a gibson but i don't know which one... i'm sure it's not a gretsch, gretsch belongs to Fender so they won't create a guitar with gibson... strange but cool guitar
.... Piano solo kills me every time... LOVE IT!
The RHCP version leaves Robert Johnson rolling in his grave.......Clapton did it justice!
Clapton did such a great job on this.... Really enjoyed it. This song is fun ! Don't try to compare this with the original just ENJOY IT !
I just discovered this treasure - shiver me timbers!!

EXCELENTE ERIC Y ROBERT!!!
I believe this line up is the perfect blues band ever was, and will be,,,
Eric Clapton they Best play guitar great cover ..
Tune! X
WooHoo! Love it!
absolutely amazing...
It's a mid 50s Byrdland, one of the really early ones with Alinco Vs, pre PAF humbuckers....very very rare!
and gadd laying it down so sweet
Nate East looks like he's having a blast
that's definitly best .
I am the biggest peppers fan you will ever meet. but this blows their version right out the water
Totally agree man, loved their version but godamn if this ain't one of Clapton's finest covers
Bellissima cover....bravo Eric
Awesome! Boys are jammin.
...a rare gem...
awesome
On the DVD it comes a few minutes before this, as they warm up for this one! Cheers
You have to buy the CD & DVD box set "Sessions for Robert J" from which this video is taken. Amazingly, I believe there is no audio recording available of this song performed by Mr Clapton. This is my favourite Robert Jonhson cover by Clapton. IT IS GOOD!!!
@torivas This album is Me and Mr. Johson...
Eric playing the songs of one and only Robert Johson
Way WAY better than the version released on the album
@reanemusic It's a Gibson Gretsch. Not quite sure what model but it looks like a Chet Atkin's hollow body one.
simplemente digno de robert johnson ,homenajeado por el gran eric clapton
@torivas this is from the sessions for robert j cd + dvd. the dvd bonus is great with live sessions like this plus clapton talking about robert johnson.
this version is fuckin' terrific
Thanx
white room

YES
@torivas this is from a DVD called 'Sessions for Robert J'
It's all video of clapton and his band in the studio playing RJ music, along with Clapton in some old hotels recording, and some good interviews. VERY GOOD. I reccommend it.
❤🔝❤
genial!!!!!!
Now I'm fiending for candy... red, hot cinnamon-flavoured Hot Tamales, that is!
@LINKMASTERX It's on itunes from the album 'Me and Mr. Johnson'. You can buy it as a single track off there for $1.29. He also plays it on the Crossroads 2004 album if you can find that.
That guitar player is Doyle Bramhall II from Austin, TX, -- Lefty upsidedown
@bkmege you are correct it is a Gibson Byrdland
I can hear the words in this one.
Clapton is still God...
@torivas The song is recorded on the SET DVD / CD "Sessions for Robert Johnson", only on the DVD. The recording here is part of it.
PS: My best DVD ever !!
@torivas ME & MR. JOHNSON....ITS BEEN OUT A FEW YEARS
Billy!!!
STEVE GADDS THE DRUMMER, HE'S FUCKING AWESOME!!!!
R.h.c.p. Rulez!!!.
I eat some tamales in some sundays.
Tamal with bread and coffee hmmm!!! yummy yummy!!!!
@torivas PS2: On this DVD you can see Billy Preston, a few months before he's gonnaway from us....
Billy’s playing on this is better than the version Eric put on the album. Amazing.
2 August 2023
chili peppers thought they had this until Clapton stepped up.
great song!
@torivas "sessions for robert J"
missing alot if you do not see the whole DVD
@bkmege i think it's a Gibson L-5 from the 70s or something . I could be wrong though.
nice sóng..wonder about the feeling
Steve Gadd--he's a gas!
@torivas EC album there red hot "me and mr johnson
@lawchihei Yes, his name is Doyle Bramhall II.
@mxb95
The guitar is a Gibson Byrdland.
@iamthesenate08 Some people will never like covers. I personally think Clapton did a brilliant job with this song.
Clapton, great guitar player, vocalist and all around great musician....I hate talneted people.
@wootoodoo It looks like a Gibson L-5 rather than an ES-175.
@DarioCoates yeah that`s him
@torivas its "Sessions for Robert Johnson" ;)
Yes, that's Billy Preston on the organ, per the liner notes.
@torivas its a track off "me and mr. johnson"
@korzofrank Thank you.
1:45 DOYLE!!
@9drew1 No, it isn't, but it's quiet similar to it. The slide guitar is acoustic on CD and the organ is replaced by a harp.
Johnson ---> Clapton ----> Red Hot Chili Peppers - Three miracles in one song...
see you in Poland - 07.06.2013
@Harlehz i think its just a gibson but i don't know which one... i'm sure it's not a gretsch, gretsch belongs to Fender so they won't create a guitar with gibson...
strange but cool guitar
i like the pepper version
@1Woutervdb1 yes ;)
looks like a birdland. mabe the one he played in the bangledesh concert...
@lasallehs yes it is:)
Yup it's a Byrdland from the 50s, you can tell by the Alnico Vs
And Billy is the one who plays the piano!
me and mr johnson
Its funny to hear this after the red hot chili peppers version :)
I'm eating a tamale right now
@torivas Session for Robert J. Jhonson I recon! Not sure though!
@torivas Me and mr.Johnson
man, I love youtube
