This recording captures the first night of Eric Clapton's 70th birthday show, held on May 1, 2015, at Madison Square Garden, NYC, NY, USA. This is Eric's latest live performance, as he has been away from concerts since June 2014. Although Eric announced his retirement from concert tours at the end of 2014, he has scheduled seven performances at the Royal Albert Hall in London starting on the 14th of 2015, including the birthday show recorded on this item. In this live performance, you can enjoy Eric's powerful playing, full of energy and stamina, and many guests grace the stage, making for a wonderful concert. The sound quality is excellent despite being an audience recording, with clear and immersive sound that remains stable throughout.
