That tab book for the concert is the best that I own.

I looked at the tab book a year ago or so and I don't think it was very accurate...I've never seen accurate clapton tabs anywhere...if I made a site I'd be the premier source...but dude, if you like unplugged, get One More Car, One More Rider...it's a great collection of old and new material, acoustic and electric...you see why Clapton is just the man...he's not the best technical guitarist, but there's so much raw emotion in his solo's...it's mindblowing every time I hear them...

There are two tab books, one full, and one of just licks. The licks book was the one I was talking about. I haven't found any inaccuracies yet.

The reason that i like his unplugged more than his other albums is because they're raw. his electric stuff is a little....what'st he word i'm looking for? not really muddy, but almost that. I haven't heard the one you're talking about, but i will soon enough.

Im listening to this album for the first time in almost 10 years.
Holy crap I forgot how amazing it was. I am determined to learn "signe" now.

I'm sure i'll not be able to come close, but damn that song is great.

it's not that tough of a song to play it somewhat basically Check. But to get down all the intricacies that he and ALF play is a little tough. And yes, Unplugged is a wicked album to play along to. I love the song Hey Hey, it's so fun to play.

For us living any other ways was nuts. with all the goodie-goodies working shitty jobs for bum pay checks, took the subway work and worried about their bills were dead. they were suckers, they had no balls. if we wanted something we just took it, and if anybody complained twice they got hit so hard believe me they never complained again
