In 1990 and 1991
Eric Clapton played 24 nights at the Royal Albert Hall performing with
different line-ups and sets featuring Blues, Rock, and a full Orchestra. The
performances have become legendary to Eric Clapton fans.
Over thirty years later, this
film, edited from the original footage and completely remastered in Dolby
Surround Sound for the ultimate theatrical experience, captures for the first
time the definitive performances across all the sets over both years.
The film features 17 hits from
across his repertoire showing Clapton at his most exhilarating, collaborating
with top musicians. There are unique versions – performed by Michael Kamen’s
orchestra or his Rock band – of longstanding hits including “Wonderful
Tonight,” “Layla,” “White Room,” and “Cocaine”
as well as rare treats such as performing “Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door”
with Phil Collins. Meanwhile, Eric’s love of the Blues is expressed as
he shares the stage with legendary Blues musicians such as Albert Collins
and Buddy Guy for classics such as “Black Cat Bone” and “My
Time After a While.” It is an exhilarating compilation of Eric
Clapton’s legendary performances. (UK, 1990/2023, 115 min., color, DCP)
