NOT TOO GREAT Oct 05, 2008
I WAS SORT OF DISAPPOINTED WITH THE CUTS THAT MADE THE DVD AS THERE WAS NO JEFF BECK. J.J. CALE DIDN'T NEED TO BE THERE SO MUCH EITHER. I THINK ERIC SHOULD LET SOMEONE ELSE PUT ON THIS SHOW AS HIS CHOICES OF MUSICIANS WERE SOMEWHAT QUESTIONABLE. SHERYL CROW? CROSSROADS GUITAR FEST MEANS GUITAR PLAYERS. THE BUDDY GUY SET WAS DAM GOOD. I WOULD MAYBE RENT THIS FIRST BEFORE YOU BUY IT AS I WAS MOSTLY DISAPPOINTED WITH IT. THAT GUITAR CLAPTON PLAYS IS ONE OF THE MOST CHEESIEST LOOKING GUITARS I HAVE EVER SEEN. THE NEXT TIME, ERIC, RELEASE THE WHOLE SHOW, JUST NOT YOUR INFLUENCES. AND IF YOU HAVE ANOTHER GUITAR FESTIVAL, INVITE SOME GUNSLINGERS, NOT A BUNCH OF WORN OUT BLUES PLAYERS.

We watch this video over and over. Last night we shared it with our guests from Sweden.

great music Jul 17, 2008
Loved the dvd. I have the earlier crossroads dvd and I think this one is even better. Well worth the price to see so many great artists performing live.Butch Trucks is amazing.

Red Hot with just one or two cold sores Jul 07, 2008
Great stuff! It really runs the entire gamut. Of course Clapton is terrific. Beck and Tal Wilkenfeld rock. Didn't know Mayer rocked like that. For me Winwood is the highlight (duh). Unfortunately, Sheryl Crow somehow got there; and then, heavens forbid, she did a duet with Willie Nelson. Skip that! But get the DVD.

-somebody (eric clapton?)get bill murray (sp)in a rehab center! as much as i like bill murray his annoying m.c. prattle is supremley bothersome!!
murray needs to lay off the sauce and concentrate on being the great artist he can be...

as for the performances, this collection is worth owning just for the vince gill performances and the derek trucks/susan tedschi performances. (shes' so great! she made a fan of me!!!)there are many other high spots (steve winwood is typically fabulous!) and some low, but, BUY IT! you won't be sorry!! some of the performances may be the 'swan song/s' for some of the older artists. the 2007 is probably better than the 2004 but the 2004 is worth having too...(vince gill)
