In May 1977, Eric Clapton entered the studio set on reclaiming some of his former glory. While his 1974 comeback album, 461 Ocean Boulevard had reached No. 1, as did his cover of Bob Marley’s "I Shot the Sheriff", his next 2 albums had hardly done as well. To help get his recording career back on track, Clapton decided to work with record producer Glyn Johns. Eric felt that Johns produced great work with famous groups like the Rolling Stones and Eagles and understood how to work with both British and American musicians. While in the studio with Johns, EC noted that the A-list producer was very disciplined and disliked jamming, feeling it killed important recording time. Given that Clapton and his band were intoxicated nearly all the time when recording, the discipline Johns brought was critical. The song section for the disc was also stellar. EC penned 2 of his most popular songs, Lay Down Sally and Wonderful Tonight and added tracks such as Cocaine, Mean Old Frisco, Peaches & Diesel and The Core, which would become staples of his live comcerts in the years to come. The resulting album, entitled Slowhand after EC's nickname, was one of the strongest of his career, reaching #2 on the Billboard charts. This soundboard recording captures EC on Japan on Sptember 30, 1977, 46 years ago today, and just about a month before the release of Slowhand. The set list provides one sneak peak at the upcomimng disc, opening with the The Core.

All you have to do is hit the blue download button twice. I use Google, just tested it, and htting the blue download button twice works perfectly. 107 folks have downloaded thw show today so it can't be too bad of a process

to download anything now you have to hit the blue button once, hit it again when the page changes, get a download ready file, click that and then INSTALL something to get it to work. maybe 100 plus people who downloaded this don't mind putting garbage on their computer and spending time on something that was once one click and done, so as I said, bye bye, Krakenfile sucks.

Not true - all you need to do is go back to the original download page and hit the blue download button a 2nd time. You don;t need to downlad anything from the pop up page - just ignore. It. I tested it ysterday and works just like I desacribed. That said, your choice to leave if you want.

when you try to back out to go to the original page you get flooded with dozens of pop ups that force you to close your browser to get rid of them. Absolute garbage.

Not having that issue nor is anyone else I have checked with - one pop up window opens in a seprate tab, the main page stays open where it originally was, and all you do is go back to it & click the eblue download button agaon - sorry its a problem for you -
