Court Links: Crossroads Guitar Festival and Mike Oldfield

11 Feb

The 2010 Crossroads Guitar Festival looks so amazing that I may need to drive the 12 hours to see it. Clapton’s 3rd event, raising money for his Crossroads Centre, the addiction-treatment facility on Antigua, will be a piece of music history. The list of stars performing is unbelievable. So unbelievable that here is the list:

Albert Lee
Allman Brothers Band
BB King
Bert Jansch
Buddy Guy
David Hidalgo and Cesar Rosas of Los Lobos
Doyle Bramhall II
Earl Klugh
Eric Clapton
Gary Clark Jr.
Hubert Sumlin
James Burton
Jeff Beck
Jimmie Vaughan
Joao Gilberto
Joe Bonamassa
John Mayer
Keb Mo
Pino Daniele
Robert Cray
Robert Randolph
Sheryl Crow
Sonny Landreth
Steve Winwood
Vince Gill
ZZ Top

There is no better way to end an evening than with some melodious acoustic guitar. Today’s purveyor of the acoustic variety is English multi-instrumentalist, Mike Oldfied, whose style of progressive rock/folk (now more recently dance) has always been as easy to listen to as it is complex to play. Enjoy this video from Good Morning Britain.
