The publication, entitled for the occasion “Eric Clapton Unplugged… Over 30 Years Later”, will include the video testimony of the “Unplugged” concert together with bonus content such as interviews that see Clapton talk about the inspirations behind the songs before going on stage.

The acoustic performance saw Clapton perform, in addition to the revision of the Derek and the Dominos classic “Layla” and a touching reduced version of “Tears in Heaven”, some of his greatest hits and some homages to the music that inspired him, interpreting songs blues like “Before You Accuse Me,” originally recorded by Bo Diddley, and “Nobody Knows You When You’re Down and Out,” brought to success by Bessie Smith.
