The second
Crossroads
Guitar
Festival
- a day-long concert featuring legendary music & collaborations - was held on July 28,
2007
to benefit the Crossroads Centre in Antigua. Filmed in HD, this two disc DVD features over four hours of historic performances from that day. Since it's inception,
Eric
Clapton
's vision for the festival has been to create an event where his friends & contemporaries can have fun & jam together for the benefit of a good cause.
"Say Bob, this is how we do Highway 61" - J. Winter
This terrific show features Johnny Winter (still alive and well) doing a sensational "Highway 61". This song alone is worth the price of admission. It's like when Hendrix showed Bob how to play "All along the Watchtower".

Crow must go !
Bill Murray was right at least once when he said, "You will remember this set the rest of your life". He was referring to Disk 2 and the jam with Winwood,
Clapton
etc. But why was Sheryl Crow even allowed in Chicago on the day much less on stage with real musicians.
Eric
may have owed her or wanted something to allow her anywhere near a
guitar
. Could she have been backstage entertainment? Oh well. Despite her a great great DVD.
A Must-Buy for Blues Fans and Wannabe Guitar Heros
If you're looking for a grassroots feel to a truely spontaneous concert, this collection of performances over a day-long concert in suburban Chicago is well worth the coin you'll spend. The line-up is spactacular and the emotion created on-stage will spill out of your flat-screen and onto the livingroom floor. The two-dvd set will feature some of the greatest
guitar
ists of all time on stage from various genre' and comes to a turmultuous finale' when 7 guitarist hit the stage to play
Clapton
's favorites. The shear force of this segment must have put-out a brilliant shockwave that must have been felt in far-away Des Moines. If you've grown bored by a sucession of live shows that are overly-produced to the point of yawn-dom, this is a refreshing time-out from all of the hype. You'll see the human side of these artists with backstage interviews and short edits of legends coming-on and off of their performances. One of the notable high-points was the 15 year-old bassist of Jeff Beck. She is a genius and the facial expressions and body language that emanates from her as she leans-into the tunage will give you goose-bumps. The fact that the entire
2007
concert was a fundraiser for Clapton's
Crossroads
Centre, a very successful detoxification facility, makes the performances just that much more compelling. PBS offered this set duirng one of their fundraising telecasts. You can get it here for far less. Enjoy! And when it's done, you look at your axe and say, "I've got some new chops to learn!" or "It's hopeless...I'm selling my Strat on eBay."
