Watched this guy play in Rhode Islands Providence Civic Center in 1984. He played for over three hours. We also did a lot of the stuff he is singing about especially during this song. LOL. We ended up getting pulled over by the coolest cop in Nahua N.H. and asked us where we are coming from. Told him Providence R.I. He asked us what going on down in Providence. I replied Eric Clapton Show. The cop says F#### me! Eric Clapton just played in Providence and I had to work! Asked me what songs he played and of course I mentioned this song with an ear to ear grin. He spoke with us a little longer about the show and then wished us a goodnight and said get outta here. As he was walking back to his police cruiser he was still talking to himself saying F### Eric Clapton played tonight and here I'm having to work! Like I said he was the coolest cop EVER!
ROCK ON BRO !!!!!! LOVE IT !!!! I met Todd Rudgren ,he played at the beach in Delaware was totally gracious and freakin funny ! Guys from that era are so cool (didn’t look at themselves as GODS a even if they were !!!)
Hey kids, this is what greatness looks and sounds like, it’ll never get any better than this, Eric Clapton is the best of the best, and the epitome of cool…….ENJOY !!!!!!
And been doing it since the mid 1960's! I got to see him live one time - what a show - mid Aug, Las Vegas, and the A/C wasn't working for crap at the arena. Loved every minute!
@@billirvin9057 I went to 8 Clapton concerts. The Just one night concert in the 70's rocked. His 30th anniversary with Mark Knofler with Yevonne Elliman and Marcy Levy back ups were again epic!

This song was written by the late, great JJ Cale, as well as _After Midnight._ JJ is Clapton's hero. The success of these two songs, along with Lynyrd Skynyrd recording _Call Me The Breeze,_ *which was also written by JJ Cale,* brought JJ out of obscurity, and allowed him to tour as it suited him, because he received royalties from other artists' recording his songs. He moved to Los Angeles and lived in a trailer with no phone. Eric sought JJ out to produce an album with him, but they ended up recording it together: _The Road To Escondido._ ❤
You were almost there. JJ Cale also wrote Call Me The Breeze. If it weren't for Jj Cale none of us would know Eric Clapton or would remember him as that guy in that band with Ginger Baker.
@@jackstraw6760 Eric Clapton was famous long before JJ Cale. JJ wanted it that way. He did not like the spotlight. When Eric recorded _After Midnight,_ everyone wanted to know who JJ Cale was. He had tried to get _After Midnight_ recorded, but he got turned down several times. JJ Cale was from Oklahoma and is credited with "effecting" the "Tulsa Sound," which you can really hear when he plays _Anyway The Wind Blows_ with Clapton, Derek Trucks and Doyle Bramhall II. ❤
@@Robin-Cale17 you know all this because Eric Clapton got famous recording JJ Cales songs. If he didn't Eric Clapton would be that guy from Cream that played guitar with Delaney & Bonnie. You tried proving me wrong by regurgitating all you know about Clapton & JJ Cale. You were 100% correct about JJ Cale. It was a mutually beneficial relationship. They both needed each other.
Dear Eric Clapton today is September 3rd today is my birthday buddy you're the best I've ever seen quite a few times in Atlanta I still think about the tragedy in your life from one Eric to another Eric g Athens Georgia keep on rocking my dear friend
I have his Unplugged cd in my car. There are times that I have a five minute ride to the grocery store and end up taking the long way there because I am jamming his tunes. Gotta love it!!
I have to agree with you Scott. Briljant player and such a gent. I have listened to this guy more than 40 years. Never boring. This version is pure party time. No way sitting down.
@@bobbys4327 Just because some music does not appeal does'nt mean you hate it. Personnaly Eric is one of my hero'es but I respect others opinion, if it's not spiteful that is.
I'm 67 and still love the classic rock sound of Clapton and his guitar! Cocaine has to be the best song he's ever done IMO. (And yes, I can relate to the lyrics too- having worked as a female stock and option day trader on Wall Street, NYC in my mid-20’s, everything was about sex, drugs, and rock and roll!). Great video - I play it every day!
He was probably watching the couple we saw at about three minutes and twenty seconds into the video, the guy was dancing around like he was at an old time tent revival in Georgia!
He is in ecstasy -- the literal meaning of which (it's from the ancient Greek) isn't just "super-turbocharged-happy," but -- this is from Britannica -- "(from Greek ekstasis, 'to stand outside of or transcend [oneself]'), in mysticism, the experience of an inner vision of God or of one’s relation to or union with the divine." He's being *inspired*, which also has a meaning that goes far beyond what we usually associate w/the term: under the "'immediate influence of God or a god,' especially that under which the holy books were written" [source: etymonline]. He's in touch with the super-human and the super-natural, and it surely shows, and we're hearing every bit of it. End of lecture. Enjoy the transcendent music.
@@tinkersbelly722 Not sure about Springsteen, but East has been around. Played with Eric Clapton, Michael Jackson, Joe Satriani, George Harrison, Ringo Starr, Phil Collins, Stevie Wonder, Toto, Kenny Loggins, Daft Punk, Chick Corea, and Herbie Hancock, to name a few. Another very prevalent bassist is Leland Sklar (dude looks like Dumbledore).
Yeah - J J Cale - great guy - and it's to Eric's credit that he always acknowledged J J Cale - as well as becoming a great friend. And I've subsequently brought J J Cale albums - so win win!
The best version I've ever heard of this song. The introduction , the incredible piano at the end just awesome ! Eric gets better with age. Fantastic arrangement.
It always amazes me how some great people can be so humble, and how their humbleness makes them great. After such a rocking performance, he leaves the stage scratching his tummy as if this was just another afternoon stroll.
By chance, I met Clapton... twice. First time on a plane to London.I had my young daughter with me. She plays violin. He was so nice to her. Really nice guy. Now the amazing part is that the second time I met him was in a restaurant. I passed his table and said hello. He asked me how my daughters violin playing was coming along. Wow!! Thankfully, I could say that she was studying at the Cleveland Institute of Music. He "Great" and wished her well. What a great musician and what a great guy.
Unfortunately, those background voices keep trying to overpower Clapton. Nobody paid to hear this background noise. Clapton's too talented to force-feed these big-mouths on the audience. Next time, leave them at home flipping burgers at BK where they belong.
Chris Stainton on piano, as always. Wherever the class blues players turn up, you'll find Chris Stainton on keyboard or piano. He must be getting on a bit now. He's done Joe Cocker, Pink Floyd, The Who everybody wants Stainton.
best version ever!! wat a band.. nathan,steve and steves,s longtime friends and the back ups!!! ty ERIC at 70.. ty ERIC for the "willpower of AA' as well!
I sometimes wonder if Mr. Eric Clapton realizes just exactly how good he is? This was an astounding performance! I am glad that I have been privileged to live in a time when I could hear Mr. Eric Clapton work his magic. Thank you, Mr. Clapton!.
Such an amazing performance. Nathan's bass lines are fantastic and keep the band together, and I think one of the biggest changes to EC concerts in more recent times is Paul Carrack, such a talented guy and a great vocalist especially on the now stalwart Joe Cocker song at concerts 'High Time We Met'. It's ironic in a way that most people think this is an EC song, and don't realise the influence of J.J. Cale on EC music in general. All the band look so happy as well....and laughing at the crowd's 'crazy' dancing. This is definitely one song to download and savour!
Fabulous. The crowd is so up & dancing that it looks like running water when the camera pans over. Those folks just using their phones are missing out. This is mega brilliant. All the musicians are excellent & the back-up singers add power.
Thanks to Clapton my mother bought me a electric guitar, unfortunately she passed away one year ago, we were going to play Autumn Leaves Of Clapton in the past December 31, but she wasnt there anymore, So I played alone and I hope she sang with me from heaven
He and the band had decades to polish it. I got caught in the church auditorium playing the keyboard with the pastors son on base, the other on drums back in 1976 playing this, he wasn't pleased! Ray, if you read this, thumbs up!
The man's been sober for decades, has opened rehabilitation centers all over the place which he constantly works to fund, and can still end a show with an entire audience shouting "COCAINE!!!"
I find it amazing that some of these guys care actually better in there 60's and even 70's than they were 30 years. This is be best version I've heard, and the keyboard guy is amazing
@@Alex-vi2wl I think ur right, or were getting old!! Maybe it's both, I can't help but notice alot of these guys seem better, thin I goggle the original, I'm right, they're do much better.
@@cock1846 underrated in an overused word in youtube. anybody wants to express their admiration to a musician they like, they call him/her underrated. Nathan East is a musicians musician. He plays with big names in the industry. He is definitely not underrated.
Underrated? Do you know what you are talking about? He belongs to the 5 best living bassists and everyone in the business knows it. Underrated ... this word should be forbidden on youtube!

Powerful
Some of rock's most iconic sidemen accompanying Clapton here.
Man just stands there and brings it. Doesn't need dancers or gimmicks. Says what needs to be said with the music. Respect.
Remember his concert in Warsaw, Poland in '79. Dressed in 3 piece suit, he was standing in one spot playing and the whole audience went crazy.
exactly how JJ Cale performed it, no gimmicks just good music.

Eric Clapton and Andy Fairweather - Lowe duelling on Gin House and Nathan East on bass.
For a second I thought it was Eric Johnson. But I don't think Eric and Eric ever played together ?????

He is a phenomenal player - and seems just such a lovely, humble guy.
The Joy in that mans face when he plays is everything!

-Beginner
-Intermediate
-Expert
-Legend
-God
-Clapton
Top five? You ain't been around long enough. Clapton has.

I may consider ordering a delivery after listening to this and having a drink.
The best version I've ever heard of this song. The introduction , the incredible piano at the end just awesome ! Eric gets better with age. Fantastic arrangement.
I do agree with you !
The pianist is Chris Stainton who was previously the main backing musician for Joe Cocker. Don't get much better!!
@@poogmonster just fuckin perfekt
its a fucking shame he already retired from music due to health issues that were affecting his playing
agreed!
"Dirty Cocaine" I have to laugh. Imagine JJ Cale adding "dirty" to assure his fans that it's an anti-Cocaine song (which it is)!

Eric Clapton and Nathan East playing Cocaine... It doesn't get any better! 👍
Best live version EVER! I play this every day.
Kevin Lutz Check the Live in Bremen version too. Fantastic.
He and the band had decades to polish it. I got caught in the church auditorium playing the keyboard with the pastors son on base, the other on drums back in 1976 playing this, he wasn't pleased! Ray, if you read this, thumbs up!
Saw him five times between 80 and 2010. Brought my kids to his shows and raised them right. Doesn't get much better in this world.
Loved the intro'. EC's soloing and the backing....Superb.
Probably the best guitarist since Hendrix we lost him , Jack Bruce and Ginger Baker , to see the happiness in in the faces of the audience says it all
I like Clapton more than Hendrix, but I agree with the sentiment
The ever smiling bassist..Nathan East.
So good to hear
Du warst und bist die schönste MUSIK WESEN in diesem Welt.🎆Lebe noch ein Jahrhundert ❣️❣️❣️ Bitte 🙏 Gruß.👍
this never gets old
this tune always makes me wish i was back in that place...we all know where that place is
Yip
Great guitarist; one of best ever. Good version of JJ Cale’s composition.
Thanks for sharing
I was lucky enough to see him 4 or 5 times. 👋👋👋
I saw the concert in Japan in April, and Eric was the best..👍👍👍 love you..💙💙💙💙💙
The best concert on CZcams....
The man's been sober for decades, has opened rehabilitation centers all over the place which he constantly works to fund, and can still end a show with an entire audience shouting "COCAINE!!!"
😆
ahhh the irony !!!
Eric at 70, in case you forgot, reminding us he still sets the barr.
Oh what a great privilege to have grown up in this time and era in history!!! June can cumpiar!!!
What a great performance! And damn, that piano solo!!!
I find it amazing that some of these guys care actually better in there 60's and even 70's than they were 30 years. This is be best version I've heard, and the keyboard guy is amazing
They've just matured like a good wine.
@@Alex-vi2wl I think ur right, or were getting old!! Maybe it's both, I can't help but notice alot of these guys seem better, thin I goggle the original, I'm right, they're do much better.
Because they're off cocaine.
You’re right, Chris Stanton is amazing
Eric Clapton is a legend guitarist for sure but how about Miguel Montalban version in here czcams.com/video/T6hzlAmSP3I/video.html
Nathan East is such an underrated bass player and always looks like he's enjoying himself.
You're the only one that thinks he's underrated. Stop fucking around cause he is highly respected in the music industry
@@cock1846 underrated in an overused word in youtube. anybody wants to express their admiration to a musician they like, they call him/her underrated. Nathan East is a musicians musician. He plays with big names in the industry. He is definitely not underrated.
Underrated? Do you know what you are talking about? He belongs to the 5 best living bassists and everyone in the business knows it. Underrated ... this word should be forbidden on youtube!
Underrated by whom....????
Flame Ryze
When you love Music ,I mean REAL Music ,you know Nathan east ,you are not Éric Clapton bassist by accident 😀😀😀😀😀
my favorite clapton solos are further on up the road in the last waltz and his work on the pros and cons of hitchhiking with waters.
Perhaps his best performance of this song. Clapton at the top of his form, with the right musicians beside him, and what a hall to play in!
