My father's eyes |
This was my first experience to hear MFE.
In Japan EC never played this song.
But I heard some Boot CD and videos.
I wonder intro of this song was same as past live version style.
Cord were E, B, F#m, B.
Slide was good and three women vocals (Katie Kissoon,Chyna,Charlean
Hines) were very good.
I like this US version more than past live. |
Pilgrim |
In '97 Japan tour EC played this song.
The strings were good.
I think '97 Japan tour style looked like Pilgrim CD.
But I like US tour version. |
One chance |
This song wasn't played in Japan tour.
I think this was more exciting than CD.
This is good for Live performance. |
River of tears |
This song also was better than original CD version.
I think live version was very powerful.
This song was played about 10 minites. It was very long but I was never
tired. |
Going down slow |
In Japan tour EC played with WahWah pedal.
He played more strong effect than original CD.
It was very good and impressive.
In US tour he didn't use WahWah pedal.
Song was more Jazzy like Legends tour.
I like both version. |
She's gone |
This song also wasn't played in Japan tour.
My friends said She's gone was one of the highlight scene in the concert.
I think YES, it was very good performance.
This song is used only 2 cords.
But I don't have any word how exciting performance it was. |
Driftin' |
Every members drawed back and EC played only him.
Many audience talked to next person.
It was not so good.
Why many people don't hear during EC played???
PA system was low level during this acoustic song.
I was disappointed noisy hall.
EC was very relax.
|
Tears in heaven |
EC always change the guitar to nairon acoustic.
But in this tour (2nd leg only) he played with Martin.
I heared EC's Martin was 000-28 EC signature model.
Wah! It was same as mine.
Song was good. It was also better than Japan tour.
Because Strings set was very effective.
At the Pond EC had mistake and smiled with Nathan. |
Layla(acoustic) |
Layla was played in Japan tour.
US tour was played more up tempo than Japan tour.
I was happy all audience sang Layla phrase with EC.
In Japan almost audience don't song lyrics.
Why? Yes, it is easy to anwser. Almost Japanese don't know lyrics
Anyway all persons said they wanted to hear electric version. |
Change the world |
This also was played in Japan.
BUT US tour were much better.
Sep '97 EC played with BabyFace in his MTV Unplugged.
It was very good performance.
EC came to Japan in Oct after MTV.
But he played Change the world very easy. Why EC?
That was so different from Unplugged performance.
In this US tour EC plyayed like BabyFace Unplugged.
It was wonderful performance.
Japan tour was not so good.
|
Old love |
This also was played in Japan.
US tour was featured Tim Carmon keyboad.
It was exellent performance.
In Japan tour Keyboad was Chris.
I like him very much. |
Crossroads |
US tour stlye was about '88 to '90.
It was up tempo style.
I like this version very much.
But Japan tour was not this style. |
Have you ever loved a woman |
Crossroads ending was starting of Have you ever love a woman.
I've never heared this style.
In Japan tour Joe Sample played piano.
This was very good performance.
I like both. |
I shot the sheriff |
This was new arrange.
Three woman vocals had characteristic.
It was very good.
They sang "But I did not shot to death"
A#=But I D=did not D#=shot to E#=death
Japan tour was normal performance.
I like US tour much better.r |
Wonderful tonight |
This was very good.
Because Katie Kisson's vocal was featured at ending part.
We can hear this style in 24 nights.
I like this version very much.
We couldn't hear this style recently.
Especially Japan tour EC played very easy.
It was not so good.
So I think US tour was much better. |
Cocaine |
This Cocaine also was good better than Japan tour.
Nathan East started this song by Base solo.
And he played F#GG# with Base before intro of this song.
This style was very popular 10 years ago.
I was happy I could hear again.
Nathan East is great.
In Japan many audience don't shout COCAINE.
But here US audience shout COCAINE.
It was comfortable for me. |
Sunshine of your love |
Recently EC played this song at encore.
Intro was very unique.
I think this was same as Japan tour.
But audience looked more exciting than Japan. |
