Fans of rock legends Eric Clapton and Steve Winwood flocked to the Izod Center in East Rutherford, NJ on Wednesday to witness opening night of their 2009 summer US tour. Flanked by an all-star band consisting of Willie Weeks on bass, Abe Laboriel, Jr. on drums, Chris Stainton on keys, and with Michelle John and Sharon White holding forth on backup vocals, the team journeyed effortlessly through the four-plus decades of musical history that made them bona fide legends, unearthing no less than 22 cuts from Traffic, Derek and the Dominoes, and Blind Faith's catalogs- to classic solo material from their seminal 70s and 80s periods along with some rare surprises.
