In this episode we go through the Clapton's version of the Freddie King song I'm Tore Down. This one has some awesome lead work and one of blues musics greatest rhythm riffs - it's a blast to play and a must know for any blues jam or gig.
English rock musician Eric Clapton recorded "I'm Tore Down" for his 1994 blues tribute album From the Cradle.[3] For his recording, Clapton uses an arrangement close to King's original, including the falsetto vocal phrases and guitar fills. Reprise Records released a compact disc promotional single in 1994, which reached number five on Billboard's Mainstream Rock chart.[4] Clapton has performed the song on several occasions; live recordings appear on Live in Hyde Park (1997) and John Mayall's 70th Birthday Concert (2003).
