Eric Clapton

In September 1998, Eric Clapton performed a deeply moving version of 'Tears In Heaven' at the Edmonton Coliseum. This performance came shortly after the release of his album 'Pilgrim' in 1998, which marked a new chapter in Clapton's career, showcasing his shift towards a more introspective sound. Fun fact: 'Tears In Heaven' was originally written about the tragic loss of his son, Conor, which adds a layer of emotional depth to the song that resonates profoundly during live performances. This concert not only highlights Clapton's incredible guitar work and vocal expressiveness but also his ability to connect with the audience on a personal level. The moment captured in Edmonton embodies this connection, making it a memorable part of his ongoing legacy.
