Lyrics: How many times must I tell you, babe?
[Chorus] [Outro]

If you like Clapton—particularly Clapton-is-god era, screaming blues guitar Clapton—then this disc is for you. Winwood is spectacular in his own right—at the mic, on the guitar, and on keyboards. The duo plays a great selection of Clapton’s solo work, as well as stuff from Derek & The Dominos, Blind Faith, and Traffic. They also hit a few requisite blues numbers from other artists, including Jimi Hendrix’s Voodoo Chile, Buddy Miles’s Them Changes, and Robert Johnson’s Rambling on My Mind. Their rendition of Cocaine (written by JJ Cale) is worth the price of the disc alone. The double-CD set is pure gold from open to finish, and the DVD (which includes extra tracks) is a must-have for any blues-rock fan. Enjoy one of the best performances you’ll ever hear from Uncle Eric. Groovy, dudes… Video: Here is the performance captured live at Madison Square Garden:
Here is the official music video for Clapton’s original hit single from 1985’s Behind the Sun album:
And for fun, here is Big Head Todd & The Monsters (a staff favorite) performing Forever Man at Denver’s Fillmore Auditorium:
