Cover of “Crossroads” in the style of Cream Written by Robert Johnson

Tribute to Eric Clapton on his 76th birthday. His playing throughout his long career is signature and flawless, but most influential to me on Cream's 'Wheels of Fire' album. A very creative, psychedelic approach with the typical sweet, precise notes we've become accustomed to. The forceful attack for his solos on 'Crossroads' stands out over Jack Bruce's maneuvering lead bass guitar and Ginger Baker's rolling drums sounding like they're falling down the stairs.

Still one of the absolute greats!
