Eric Clapton Performs I Shot the Sheriff - Live at Budokan Concert

Venue: Nippon Budokan Location: Tokyo, Tokyo, Japan Date: April 13, 2016

In April 2016, Eric Clapton delivered a compelling live rendition of "I Shot the Sheriff" at the iconic Nippon Budokan in Tokyo. At this stage in his career, Clapton was touring in support of his album "I Still Do," released in 2016, which showcases his signature blend of blues and rock. This performance marked a significant point as it was the first show he had ever played at Budokan, a revered venue known for hosting legendary artists. It’s fascinating how Clapton, despite decades in the business, continued to embrace new energies, reinterpreting Bob Marley’s classic with his unique flair. This moment not only pays homage to Marley but also highlights Clapton's versatility and enduring relevance in the music world.
