Live from the Hyde Park concert - 1990 - with an insanely great band.

Eric Clapton - guitar and vocals
Jerry Portnoy - harmonica
Andy Fairweather-Low - guitar
Chris Stainton - keyboards
Dave Bronze - bass
Steve Gadd - drums

Portnoy really plays well here.

(sorry for not recognizing the horn players and vocalists)

As an OT aside - but not quite so off topic.

On drums, in the clip above and below - Steve Gadd. In my opinion perhaps the most versatile, and near the top, if not the top drummer in the world from about 1980 to 2000, and still at the top today.

First call session drummer - equally at ease playing with the likes of Paul Simon, Chick Corea, Steely Dan (drum solo on "Aja"), Frank Sinatra, Paul McCartney, and Eric Clapton's go-to drummer for a long time. (Gadd also played drums on Van McCoy's "The Hustle", the disco song from the '70's)

He just kills the drums on "Badge" (at its core a blues song) - posted below.
