Seems like this was the most popular dance move at the time. At that concert, anyway

Something tells me that's Baryshnikov compared to your dancing.

The Knebworth performance is better, IMO, not only in musical quality, but for the sheer balls it took for Ronnie to push the band out on the Stones' "tongue" when it was explicitly forbidden.


Not for me. Oakland had the Billy Powell piano entrance, the crowd was leagues better as was the videography and the performance was epic. Plus it was 4th of July weekend and that fateful day wasn't far away.

I get the feeling that Clapton was always a dork at heart and probably never partied very hard.


He had some issues with alcohol and cocaine back in the 70’s so I imagine he did his share.

This is one from Knebworth, if you search YouTube you can find the entire show
Just rewatched again and for the first time ever noticed a girl wearing a Purple and Gold Mardi Gras shirt at 7:47.

People were better looking back then, it seems. Might be this video or another one, a girl is totally topless out there.
