Three For The Road
A big thumbs up on these three live recordings. Clapton's; Live in the Seventies collection captures some of the best stuff Slowhand has ever done on a stage. The classic; "Further On Up The Road" is worth the price of this box set, not to mention a stellar version of "Double Trouble".
Kenny Wayne Shepherd's; 10 Days Out- Blues From The Backroads recording is landmark. It includes a DVD in addition to the CD that documents the young bluesman traveling the south playing on location with some of the legends of the blues who have grown old and since then have left us.
Roy Buchanan's: Live Stock is another to add to your collection. His patented Telecaster sound was captured on this 1975 recording and is a classic. Recorded in New York City, Roy's guitar chops are at their peak especially on" Roy's Bluez" where he definitely heats up the fret board.

The results are surprising and the images, although not clean and crisp still express the spirit of the moment and the notes played. The following are just a few examples:
