Today's song of the day combines a number of performers. The video below is an outstanding take of Eric Clapton's version of "Crossroads". Originally written and performed by Robert Johnson, the enigmatic grand-father of Rock and Roll, Clapton makes you wonder what Johnson could have done if he'd only been granted an electric guitar in his short lifetime. Clapton is a legend in his own right, and his appreciation of the blues is well known. This is a crisp performance with some really soulful playing by the band as a whole.
