The three-time Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee was backed by drummer Sonny Emory, guitarist Doyle Bramhall II, keyboardist and vocalist Paul Carrack, keyboardist Chris Stainton and singers Sharon White and Sharlotte Gibson. Clapton also played Bob Marley’s “I Shot The Sheriff,” “Unplugged,” “Tears in Heaven,” Cream’s “White Room,” the ballad “Wonderful Tonight,” two Robert Johnson tunes “Crossroads” and “Little Queen of Spades.” Copyright(c) 2018 RTTNews.com.
