Its massive success - it is one of the rare albums to be certified as diamond in the U.S. And it went platinum all over the world; it also won the Album of the Year Grammy for 1992 - makes it difficult to place 's 1992 in context, but it's important to do so. It arrived three years into MTV Unplugged's run - 1989 also being the year stirred artistically with the assured AOR of - and a year after established the practice of an official album release of an Unplugged session with his own. Also in 1991, 's young son Conor died in a tragic accident. The guitarist wrote 'Tears in Heaven' as a tribute to his late son and, via its inclusion on the 1991 soundtrack to, it became a hit single and, later, a centerpiece to the set. The passage of time has blurred the lines separating all these events, suggesting 's 1992 was the first-ever MTV album, that it alone was responsible for revitalizing 's career, that it is was the place where 'Tears in Heaven' premiered, when none of that is quite true.
Eric Clapton playing acoustic guitar is out of this world. This DVD offer's a great picture,great sound and most important of all: great music. I wish he would put out another DVD and CD like this one. The band is great, specially Chuck Leavell who is an extremely good piano player in my opinion. I specially like is piano playing on Old Love. Sun tv serial actress rani navel photos.
What is true is that is the concert and album that established the MTV program as a classy, tony showcase for artists eager to redefine themselves via reexamination of their catalogs, which is what cannily did here. The album's hit was a slow crawl through ' 'Layla,' turning that anguished howl of pain into a cozy shuffle and the whole album proceeds at a similar amiable gait, taking its time and enjoying detours into old blues standards. Is embracing his middle age and the pleasure of is to hear him opt out of the pop star game as he plays songs he's always loved. Tellingly, it's these blues and folk covers - 's 'San Francisco Bay Blues,' 's 'Hey Hey,' the standard 'Alberta,' ' 'Rollin' and Tumblin',' two songs from ('Walkin' Blues,' 'Malted Milk') - that are the best performances here; they're alternately lively and relaxed, happily conforming to the contours of the compositions.
These capture a moment in time, when was settling into his age by reconnecting with the past, whereas the originals - whether it's the revised versions of 'Layla' and 'Old Love,' 'Tears in Heaven,' or the debut of 'My Father's Eyes,' originally heard here (and on the 2013 expanded anniversary edition) but released as a single much later in the decade - point forward to the sharply tailored adult contemporary crooner of the '90s, one who turned out to be very comfortable existing in a world of high thread counts and designer duds. These are the tunes that belong to the '90s - and several of these also appear on the 2013 expansion, which contains songs that didn't appear on the album, almost all of which are originals apart from an alternate 'Walkin' Blues' and 'Worried Life Blues' - but the rest of manages to transcend its time because it does cut to the quick of 's musical DNA.
