When I saw the heading I knew it had to be the Wheels of Fire, Crossroads. That second solo is one of the finest pieces of rock guitar ever recorded still to this day. But whoever the cameraman was should be shot. I don't want to watch Ginger baker drumming when I could be staring in wonderment at Clapton's fingers.
