A Legend Doing What He Does Best!
When thinking of some of the most covered songs in rock history, there are many that come to mind. Songs like Stairway To Heaven, Sweet Child O’ Mine, Dream On, Hotel California, the list just goes on and on.
But there is one song in particular that comes to mind a lot more than most, and that song is Sunshine Of Your Love. Considered by many to be ‘the riff song’, Sunshine Of Your Love will go down as one of the most covered songs in all of rock music.
The cool thing is, most of the covers out there are truly great. It’s not just kids in their bedrooms playing this song, it’s also established musicians. The song is truly universal in every way possible. The song is played phenomenally by many great musicians, but the one who plays it the best is its creator.
What you’re about to watch is a video in which the man who wrote Sunshine Of Your Love, Eric Clapton, takes to the stage at the 2013 Crossroads Festival to perform the aforementioned song, proving that he is the only one who can play the song the way it was meant to be played. See for yourself!
