ABOUT THE RECORD 24 Nights, a live album by Eric Clapton, recorded at the Royal Albert Hall in London, England, peaked at #38 on Billboard 200. The album is a "best of" from the 42 concerts Eric Clapton did at the Royal Albert Hall in 1990 and 1991. Clapton set a record by playing a run of 24 nights at the London Royal Albert Hall between 5 February and 9 March 1991, following an 18-night run in 1990. These concerts were performed with 4 different instrumental formations, 4-piece, blues, 9-piece and orchestra nights, the last featuring the National Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Michael Kamen. A reviewer on allmusic.com says, "Eric Clapton, who had not released a live album since 1980, had several good reasons to release one in the early '90s. For one thing, his spare backup band of keyboardist Greg Phillinganes, bassist Nathan East, and drummer Steve Ferrone was his best live unit ever, and its powerful live versions of Cream classics like White Room and Sunshine of Your Love deserved to be documented. For another, since 1987 Clapton had been playing an annual series of concerts at the Royal Albert Hall in London, putting together various special shows (blues nights, orchestral nights, etc.). The result was an album that came across as a lavishly constructed retrospective and a testament to Clapton's musical stature. But it made little impact upon release (though it quickly went gold), perhaps because events overcame it -- three months later, Clapton's elegy for his baby son, Tears in Heaven, was all over the radio, and a few months after that he was redefining himself on MTV Unplugged. Still, it would be hard to find a more thorough demonstration of Clapton's abilities than the one presented on 24 Nights."
