A great pleasure to the Voodoo Wagon!
A very good friend of the blog sent us the link of this special meeting of Blues aficionados last night. Too bad we don`t have him here on the Wagon as a contributor anymore. Many thanks again for the show!
Eric Clapton, Jimmy Vaughan, Eddy Shaw, Elvis Costello, Susan Tedeschi & Derek Trucks, Billy Gibbons, Keb Mo,Warren Haynes, Keith Richard, Buddy Guy...they all played at this show in New York City. And it seems they all had a lot of fun!
Not to forget the responding audience too...
A Big Thanks to the producers of this boot! I mean the show is about 10 days young and we have a perfect recording including perfect front and back covers.
This is something only bootleggers can do. Salute!

Patrick Doyle reported in rollingstone.com:
Close to midnight last night at New York’s Apollo Theater, Eric Clapton had just finished a thunderous take on classic blues number “Forty Four” when Keith Richards ambled onstage with no introduction. Wearing a dark blazer, long green scarf, fedora and a huge grin, he embraced Clapton and stood center stage to massive applause, delivering a smoky take on Howlin’ Wolf’s “Going Down Slow,” a chronicle of a frail man who has savored life’s greatest pleasures. “Man, I’ve had things that kings and queens will never have,” Richards growled. “In fact, they don’t even know about them, let alone get ’em. And good times? Mmmm…” He hovered around Clapton and then stood sidestage by the piano while Clapton delivered a throaty verse and then weaved clean-toned solos with young Austin guitarist Gary Clark Jr… It was Richards’ first major musical appearance since the Rolling Stones last toured five years ago, and he showed little rust.
