I am a big big fan as well....Songs like "Promise i will try", SRV, "Manhattan" etc...made me a fan for life....

Saw him live 2 years ago....with Robben Ford.....I had high expectations....I owned one Robben Ford cd which i thought was "ok", but was looking forward more to Eric....After the gig i walked away being a Robben Ford fan and a bit less of an Eric fan as he just noodled his way through his gig and seemed very uninspired; whereas Robben was STUNNING!!! That Robben Ford performacne was the best guitar concert i ever went to..... Still his new record with Mike Stern is great... Especilly track 7 & 11...soooo good!
