In 2019, Eric Clapton brought together some of the world's most astounding guitarists for his fifth Crossroads Guitar Festival. If you've had the pleasure to see the concert festival in 2004, 2007, 2010, 2013, or 2019, you know what it's about: A marathon concert featuring Clapton and friends playing in each other's sets, with once-in-a lifetime collaborations and plenty of jaw-dropping music - all in service of Clapton's Crossroads Centre for rehabilitation and recovery. It's a ticket you don't want to miss.
But if you couldn't make it to the festival in Dallas last year, fear not! On November 20, Rhino will release Eric Clapton's Crossroads Guitar Festival 2019 across multiple formats. It features almost four hours of festival highlights with appearances by [deep breath...] Jeff Beck, Eric Clapton, Peter Frampton, Buddy Guy, Bonnie Raitt, Robert Randolph, Lianne La Havas, James Bay, Los Lobos, Sheryl Crow, Marcus King Band, Vince Gill, Sonny Landreth, John Mayer, James Burton, Jimmie Vaughan, Keb' Mo', Tedeschi Trucks Band, and many more.
Crossroads Guitar Festival 2019 will be released as in 3-CD, 6-LP, 2-Blu-ray, and 2-DVD configurations. The film (likely in edited form) will also be part of PBS-TV programming starting November 28.
To preview the collection, Rhino has released The Marcus King Band's performance of "Goodbye Carolina." You can check out below, along with the full track listings and order links!
