I saw EC twice in concert, both times at Madison Square Garden. The frist was in April 1987, one of the best shows I've ever attended and then again in April 1990. The 1987 show was actually taped for a live album, but that project was shelved and it was never released.
This sounboard recording captures Clapton long before I saw him live, in Memphis on June 18, 1975, 4 dozen years ago today. Slowhand was on tour in support of the album There’s One in Every Crowd, the follow up to his chart topping disc 461 Ocean Boulevard. Unfortunately, EC’s growing dependence on alcohol made recording the album difficult. As a result, There’s One in Every Crowd didn’t match the quality of its predecessor. The disc only rose to #21 in the Billboard album charts and failed to yield any singles that charted.
