Description:
Live, intimate, and raw, Sessions For Robert J is the essential audio/video companion to Eric Clapton's 2004 gold, Top 10 Me And Mr. Johnson, tribute to blues legend Robert Johnson. Filmed during tour rehearsals in London and Dallas plus a Los Angeles hotel room and the Dallas warehouse where Johnson made some of his final recordings, Sessions for Robert J finds Clapton performing all Robert Johnson songs with his touring band, acoustically with Doyle Bramhall II and solo-as well as discussing Johnson and his influence. A performance/documentary DVD with 14 tracks (from which the 11 CD selections are taken), Sessions for Robert J is blues heaven.

Although the music was obviously top-notch renditions of Rj's most memorable meleodies ... Read More

Eric Clapton displays his ability to play and the influence that Robert Johnson has had on him. It is a great balance of interviews and blues music.

Great DVD. Clapton was one of the first to bring Robert Johnson to attention with "Ramblin" and now gives his major tribute to R.Johnson.
Also get The Crossroads Festival it's killer.
