	Eric Clapton - 1998 Pilgrim European Tour Reviews (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Volkswagen's musical initiative presents the "Eric Clapton European Tour 1998" which in October, November and December of 1998 took the British cult musician to Great Britain, Germany, Italy, Spain, France, Belgium, Switzerland, the Netherlands and Scandinavia - Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Finland.
		Highlights have been (my opinion): "She Is Gone" with Eric and Alan Darby alternately taken the solos; "Driftin' Blues" - EC and his guitar, what else do we need?; "Crossroads"/"Have You Ever Loved a Woman", which was shorter and without interplay with the keyboard; "I Shot the Sheriff", it really rocked, great intro with Nathan.
		Acoustic blues Drifting was stunning and he did a beautiful version of Tears in Heaven.
