Just to follow up on my friend Cossy-Costello review I thought the movie was quite good.
I have been a n EC fan since the mid seventies. First listening to Cream, Blind Faith and his early solo albums.
I became his biggest fan and also his biggest critic. Generally disappointed with his solo albums in the late 70s and 80s always hoping for that fire from his Cream days. Like Cossy I too have come to appreciate these albums in my lster years.
But I thought that 24 nights was a period where EC was beginning to embrace his blues roots and stinging guitar leads. The film gives you an upclose view of his magical finger work whether it be a rocking song or a melodic song such as Wonderful tonight (always a P break for me at his concerts).
Not to drag this on but this film is for EC fans for sure. I enjoyed it and I particularly liked Buddy Guy and his on stage antics. He had everyone cracking up. Including myself. I have the original album and will get the 6 CD box set. What else am I supposed to do????
EC is and will always be my main man!!!
