Eric Clapton - Sessions for Robert J (2004)

Eric Clapton - Sessions for Robert Johnson (2004)



-Session I - nice low-key electric studio session on March 15, 2004 in

Checkendon, England with some top notch musicians.

-Session II - recorded on June 2, 2004 in Irving, TX on a funky sound

stage with a cloudy sky backdrop.

-Session III - June 3, 2004 in Dallas, TX at 508 Park Avenue, the very

place Johnson recorded his 1937 sessions and now abandoned but still

in good shape.

-Session IV - Santa Monica, CA on August 14, 2004. A solo effort with

Clapton and a framed picture of Robert Johnson perched close by on a

desk top.



Some may be bothered by the "rehearsal" look, feel, and cadence of the DVD but that is essentially what it was. They were not making a music video, they were making a CD and captured the sessions on a digital recorder for all of us to enjoy.
