guest list, Buddy Guy among others. There was also some sessions with a full symphony-orchestra! When all shows had been performed, Eric together with producer Russ Titelman, decided that the playing did not reach the standard of a Clapton release. So in 1991 Eric returned to RAH to do it all over. Albert Hall had been "Eric Hall", people joked! The first disc is based on the four-piece band and the blues band. While the four-piece band performing the Cream-songs Badge, Sunshine of Your Love and White Room. All of them very well done, and Eric throws in All the audio and video included in THE DEFINITIVE 24 NIGHTS was painstakingly restored and upgraded by Clapton’s team of Simon Climie (audio production and mixing), producer Peter Worsley ( Slowhand at 70 and The Lady In The Balcony), and director David Barnard ( The Lady In The Balcony). Five of the 1990 concerts were recorded for the live album – the final nights of the first three ensembles, and the final two nights of the orchestra. Badge" was taken from the four-piece show on 10 February 1991. The nine-piece band session on 18 February 1991 produced "Pretending", "Bad Love", "Old Love" and "Wonderful Tonight" for this album, plus recordings of " No Alibis", " I Shot the Sheriff" and " Cocaine" which were subsequently released on various CD singles of "Wonderful Tonight". [10] "Hoodoo Man" was from the blues band night recorded on 28 February 1991. "Edge of Darkness" was from the first orchestral session on 7 March 1991. No songs were used from the second orchestral recording on 8 March 1991.

In the “beyond” portion of the program lies Michael Kamen’s “Edge of Darkness.” Kamen, the film-scoring journeyman who worked with Clapton on Lethal Weapon, honors the guitarist by fitting varying orchestral maneuvers underneath Clapton’s simple melodic phrase. The end effect, unfortunately, is less grandly cathartic than decorative, something better suited to the end-credit sequence in a moody thriller. The four-piece band recording on 24 January 1990 produced the versions of "Running on Faith", "White Room" and "Sunshine of Your Love" that were included on the CD and DVD. "Worried Life Blues", "Watch Yourself" and "Have You Ever Loved a Woman" were from the blues band recording on 5 February 1990. "Bell Bottom Blues" and "Hard Times" with the orchestra were taken from the first of those sessions, on 9 February 1990. No songs were used from the nine-piece band recording on 1 February 1990, or the second orchestral recording on 10 February 1990. All audio has been restored, remixed and remastered and the three types of concert have been effectively formatted into three double albums which all fit on two CDs or three vinyl records (the exception is the Blues concert which fits on 2LPs). The two super deluxe edition box sets bring all of these together, which is why the CD version has six CDs and the vinyl edition has eight LPs.

But the celebratory aspects of the album are tempered by harsh realities, clouding the separation of art and artist. Given Clapton’s recent travails — the accidental death of Stevie Ray Vaughan after a gig with Clapton, and then the death of Clapton’s four-year-old son — our collective heart goes out to the artist. When Clapton gives his all to Ray Charles’s “Hard Times” late in the set, it’s hard to hear it from an emotional distance. The blues are made of this.
