Paul McCartney - For You Blue


This is a live performance by Paul McCartney. The performance is from the 2002 gig celebrating and commemorating the life of George Harrison, released under the title "Concert for George". He is joined on stage by a bundle of people, including: Eric Clapton, Dhani Harrison, Ringo Starr, and Marc Mann. They play the song "For You Blue" which was written by George Harrison.
It was originally recorded by the Beatles in 1969 and released as a B-side to "The Long and Winding Road" in 1970. It was from the "Let It Be" LP. It features Harrison on guitar, John Lennon on a lap steel guitar, Ringo Starr on drums, and Paul McCartney on piano.
It's a sweet little feel good blues tune. I really love in this performance the slide work done by guitarist Marc Mann. It's a really good performance!

Enjoy ; )

Joe Bonamassa - So, It's Like That


This is a live performance by blues and rock guitarist Joe Bonamassa performing his song "So, It's Like That". The performance is from Guitar Center's King of the Blues Finals.
The song originally appeared on Bonamassa's 2002 album also titled "So, It's Like That". The album was his second studio album.
It's a great song and it has a very familiar feel to it, obviously attributed to Bonamassa's blues influences. A great performance of a good song that ought to pick you up if you're blue.

Enjoy ; )

Wyclef Jean with Eric Clapton - My Song


This is a live performance by blues legend Eric Clapton and musician, songwriter and producer Wyclef Jean playing their version of his 2002 single "Two Wrongs".
They changed the title and changed some of the lyrics as well. Originally the song was a duet between Claudette Ortiz and Jean singing a two sided story about love. (Click here for original version).
This version is from Jeans's concert at the Carnegie Hall. The performance features many different artists playing material and playing with Jean. The concert is out on DVD. Click here for more details. I previously posted a clip of Clapton playing "Wonderful Tonight" (click here for that post)
I think it's a very nice performance of a very good pop song adding Clapton's playing on top. A really nice performance.

Enjoy ; )
