Here's Eric Clapton at a concert in Hyde Park in 1996 with a nice version of "Badge":
Changing a little bit, here's Karla Bonoff with Linda Ronstadt, complete with a vocal mistake at the beginning and a lead guitarist with his volume turned way down--but the singing is definitely real.
Badge is my favorite Clapton tune, even to this day. Even though Harrison's signature is all over it, Eric clearly made it his own.
ReplyDeleteI think Clapton is the greatest rock guitarist of all time, except for Hendrix.
Good pick.
Yep, I've always thought of it as a tribute to the Beatles, done well.
ReplyDeleteI like a few other Clapton songs better but this version is right up there in my book.
