Eric Clapton Live Performance of Change the World in Edmonton 1998
On September 11, 1998, Eric Clapton delivered a memorable performance at the Edmonton Coliseum, showcasing his smooth blend of blues and rock. Just prior to this live recording, Clapton released the album "Pilgrim" in 1998, which marked a new direction in his career, featuring themes of love and introspection. Interestingly, "Change the World" — a standout track from the album — had already won a Grammy for Song of the Year in 1997, reflecting Clapton's profound impact on the music industry at that time. This live rendition captures not just Clapton's trademark guitar work, but also the emotional resonance that has connected him with audiences for decades. Fans often cherish these live performances as they bring a fresh energy that studio recordings can sometimes miss.
