Jeff’s Playlist: Just One Night

Eric Clapton — Just One Night

Happy Valentine’s Day. 

This album came out when I was in col­lege the first time. My room­mate at that time was real­ly into stereo equip­ment and owned a copy of this music on reel-to-reel tape, which he played on his reel-to-reel play­er. He also had these huge speak­ers, so nat­u­ral­ly the music sound­ed great. 

This is a fine live album by Clapton. Sit back and give it a lis­ten. I think you’ll enjoy it.
