全球學習吉他之人的膜拜師法對象,來自英國的「吉他之神」Eric Clapton,擁有17座葛萊美獎加冕、寫下全球破億銷售量,成為音樂史上唯一以個人以及Yardbirds和Cream樂團團員身份,共3次入列「搖滾名人殿堂」的傳奇大師。步入歌壇50個年頭,不僅推廣藍調音樂不遺餘力,更追尋傳統搖滾源頭,可以恣意遨遊迷幻、民謠、硬式搖滾、流行、成人抒情領域。
曾經也是酒癮和毒癮纏身的Eric,有了能力之後回饋社會,於1998年一手成立設置在Antiqua島上的非營利性收容機構The Crossroads Centre,專為染上酒癮及毒癮的人提供治療,同時舉辦『Crossroads Guitar Festival』祭典盛會,邀請一群星光閃耀的好友們開唱,齊心籌備募款活動。2004年第一屆選在德州Cotton Bowl,順勢發行的DVD銷售居冠並大破十白金。2007的第二屆換至伊利諾州Toyota Park,28000張門票22分鐘內掃光,之後並締造6白金的DVD銷量。2010年第三屆則改到芝加哥Toyota Park舉辦,擠進超過27000名聽眾共襄盛舉,歷經11個小時的巨星輪番上陣,DVD獲頒四白金認證。
每隔三年一次的盛會,到了2013年的第四屆,有別於前三屆的戶外場,此回特別挑選4月12&13兩日,於全球著名的麥迪遜廣場花園舉辦,也是首度室內演出。相信在世界各地的粉絲們,有許許多多遺憾無法參與這場巨星雲集的年度大秀。延續傳統所特別出版的雙DVD現場影音實錄“Crossroads Guitar Festival 2013”,一字排開招攬The Allman Brothers Band、Blake Mills、Buddy Guy、Doyle Bramhall II、Gary Clark Jr.、Jeff Beck、John Mayer、Keith Richards、Keith Urban、Los Lobos、Robert Cray、Sonny Landreth、Steve Cropper、Vince Gill…等跨越各領域、風格的樂團/樂手齊聚一堂。有別於錄音室的錄音,玩到忘我之即興演出還有互飆的精彩度,絕對令人起雞皮疙瘩,熱血沸騰過癮不已。看這些老中青三代的藝人,發揮拿手絕活,將經典金曲送上最動人的詮釋。長達近5個小時的饗宴,多達45支曲目,讓忠實樂迷不再有遺憾,也提供吉他學習者一份至尊級教材!■2013.11■
