Comments: Nice sounding audience recording from Clapton's "Nothing But The Blues" tour. Nothing superlative about this show (like the Irving Plaza or some of the RAH shows), but as far as I'm concerned every good-sounding show from this tour is worth having. It's a solid performance all around.

The only flaw is a couple of unfortunate tape flips (it appears to have been recorded on cassette, since DAT was not yet in the mainstream in 1994) that result in small sections of music being lost. The gap in "Hoochie Coochie Man" is literally just the first few notes, but since EC segued "Tore Down" into "Have You Ever Loved A Woman," the taper lost part of the first verse of HYELAW. 

It's not the best recording from the tour, but worth having for any EC collector who doesn't have this show.
