« 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 guitarists 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." .:. Rating: 5 / 5
