Lonely stranger
An unplanned recording, but I've been obsessed with the Unplugged album for months now (for years really, ever since I bought it, back in the good old days of CDs and record stores). How can you resist learning those masterful songs and guitar parts?
Clapton has always been one of my favorite musicians, and to me this album is impeccable. So it's very difficult to choose a favorite, but this might be the one (but then there's Old love, and Tears in heaven, and …).
The Ibanez is really loud (but it sounds so good!), it's difficult to record anything else with it. Better microphone placement next time, but this is what we get today.
I must be invisible
No one knows me
I have crawled down dead-end streets
On my hands and knees
I was born with a raging thirst
A hunger to be free
But I've learned through the years
Don't encourage me
'Cause I'm a lonely stranger here
Well beyond my day
I don't know what's going on
I'll be on my way
