This is another Crossroads "winner." All three of them have offered a lot of great moments and this latest one does, too.
Yes, it has a number of the same artists from the 2007 Crossroads concert, also held in Chicago, but some of them are better in this one, and some of the "newcomers" really shine. All in all, it more than balances out and gives you four hours of very good stuff.
Who's good and who's bad is subjective, depending on which artists you like, but almost everyone I've talked to agrees the "jam sessions" are the best in this 2010 festival.
The groups of Buddy Guy-Jonny Lang-Ronnie Wood; Derek Trucks-Susan Tedeschi-Warren Haynes; B.B. King-Eric Clapton-Jimmie Vaughan-Robert Cray and the amazing contingent of Vince Gill-Keb Mo-James Burton-Albert Lee-Earl Klugh-Sheryl Crow are all so good it can bring tears to your eyes and a lot of life to your toe-tapping feet.
Those "sessions" alone make this concert well worth adding to your collection of music DVDs.
