We didn't get Beat-Club here in the US either, Kev.

We didn't get Top Of The Pops here either.  At least now we have YouTube so we can see the artists that appeared on both shows.

I had no idea that was a cover—and that the original was so old!

Chet Powers (Dino Valenti)   1963


Some will come and some will go but
We shall surely pass
When the one who left us here
Returns for us at last
We are but a moment's sunlight
Fading on the grass
C'mon people now,
Smile on your brother
Let me see you get together
Try and love one another right now



I'm fortunate to have come of age in those times.

Interesting Baz.
I've always maintained that Clapton never sounded as good when he switched to playing a fender strat. That first clip with the gibson sounds way way better, (compare the first solos on both tracks) he played gibsons all through his Mayall & Cream days and his playing always suited the gibson humbucker sound. Playing a strat he always sounds a bit limp to me.

I agree, Kev. The Gibson ES-335 he's playing is semi-hollow. Coupled with its Humbuckers, you get that richer sound.
