In September 1998, Eric Clapton delivered a powerful live performance at the Edmonton Coliseum, showcasing his unparalleled guitar mastery during a rendition of 'Crossroads.' This period followed the release of his studio album 'Pilgrim' in 1998, which marked a significant point in Clapton's career as he explored a more introspective and contemporary sound, melding elements of rock with blues and pop nuances.
