Edit for headphones, March 2023. A song from the 1965 album "For Your Love" (reissue with 13 bonus tracks). I cut short the dull & much too long intro, so that we can enjoy the great guitar work almost instantly... sometimes I'm impatient, you know. Browsing my music files I sometimes hear songs with much too long intro's, ideal for babbling radio dj's, a pest for music lovers...

Never heard this one before! I didn't know they ever did any instrumentals. Good tune! Agreed about the guitar work. Eric clapton is one of the best. Nice job, Ruud :)
