The story of how Clapton created the song. I have to confess I like the slow version on Unplugged better, but then I’m more into acoustic in general.

I will always think of the scene near the end of Goodfellas when the dead bodies keep popping up and the instrumental part of this song plays.
Nice find, Rand.
I like the song (and it’s fun to play), but I don’t consider it a masterpiece or a anything (and I don’t like the unplugged version at all). I consider the masterpieces from that album to be “Bell Bottom Blues”, “Tell the Truth”, and the blues standard “Key to the Highway”, all of which are played and sung magnificently (and they are a blast to play live too).
