Eric Clapton

In the live recording from Madison Square Garden on November 30, 1997, Eric Clapton delivered a soulful performance of 'Have You Ever Loved a Woman', a classic penned by Freddie King. This moment came shortly after the release of his 1996 album 'Pilgrim', an introspective record that marked Clapton's journey into personal themes following the tragic loss of his son. It's interesting to note that during this period, Clapton was not only solidifying his legacy as one of the greatest guitarists of all time but also exploring deeper emotional landscapes in his songwriting. The blend of raw emotion in his guitar work during this performance highlights his continued evolution as an artist, making it a memorable moment for both fans and critics alike, who had watched him grow over the decades.
