No truer song was ever written about that drug.

It enjoyable watching a talent like Eric Clapton just playing his music in his older years. No more having to jump up and down, no flashy lights, no patting himself on the back, no ego involved here. Just a fine wine thats aged properly and now just pure sweet music, and raw talent coming through his soul..Cool to watch it unfold over the years.LOVE IT

the fact that he's probably sober helps...

The Godfather unpretentious Maybe, but the ego is there. We always have the ego with us, each and every one!

@george painter unpretentious is the correct description. I meant that in my head just put it down wrong on paper. Thanks

I saw God play this Live! Clapton is a god, but not the. God!

Eric is the better guitarist but Stevie is the better MUSICIAN

I woz their!!! :D

BRAVOOO👏👏👍👍

Steengoed TOP nummer

Winwood is infinitely more talented than that hack Clapton.

While Clapton is good and gets all the praise and attention,there are many guitarists out there that are better that don't get the recognition they deserve.

Mr Obama which shithole Country are you referring to? Kenya? Somalia? Venezuela? Don't limit yourself there are a lot of them. And we give a lot of foreign aid to them and we import a lot of our citizens.

Reminds of low spark of high heeled boys with this keyboard riff.

My life is set with the advent of YouTube! Thank you YouTube!

Wonderful. Heard Sammy Hagar and Eddie Van Halen are...BACK. Slow Hand Enjoy While We Can.

That jam just made my night! Fantastic!

Clásico con clase ..Gracias MAESTROS..uffffffff

Yeah guy's

Is Eric Idle on keyboards? He looks like though

That coment is an insult..... How could u have a go at Chris Stainton?

Do bongs and listen to Clapton

Musta listened to this bout a million times

Paul C me too

I posted something about this video but it seems like some motherfucker erased it like I said before I didn't know Mr winwood knew how to play an axe he's known for being a keyboard player he ate it up with slow hands Eric Clapton Steve winwood rocked with both the Spencer Davis group and traffic

The Masters at work!!! So fine, so effortless.....Magical!!! SB

I want to dawnload this serise

STUPIDEST SONG EVER

Clapton's guitar solo is just sublime !!!

You gotta love that keyboard!

Darn good!!!

Eric and Stevie. Best Guitar And Singers EVERS. Spine Chilling Great!!

Bret Hitman Hart killin' it on the piano!

We seem to always talk about the white powder, but not like this.

Thanks jj cale for giving amazing music. RIP Cale

I'm not sure if Steve is a guitarist, but he plays very well. To be honest, he plays better than George Harrison or Keith Richards with Eric.

I don't think so

Is there any possibility for any other musicians to do this without a network?
Your lucky Mr Clapton ......
Keep on Man!

Two guitar greats playing together! So so good!

The whole crowd yells "cocaine"...

Proof the war on drugs officially failed

Just remember he did "Forever man.", "Bad love.", "It's in the way that you use it.", and "Pretending."
If there's a grammar error please correct it at you own chosen speed.

pretty average really im afraid

And you are ! ...

I am merely a person with an opinion...if you note I don't denigrate their abilities just the fact that this is (in my opinion, which has no value of course) Just an average performance To me they are just going through the motions on this particular song...Normally I would rate Clapton & Windwood and of course the band members they use very highly but this time........

Cry baby sounds great on this tune

The human touch never ever happen again

Nose Candy

wish had some

The bloke on keyboards looks like Eric Idle

How wonderful is Steve Winwood?

Fucking Awesome

yes it is

Eric Clapton sounds the same NOW as he did 40+ years ago. Ooh those darn 70s sure miss the whole era!!!

that ladies and gentlemen is how you play a fucking guitar!

I always looked at Mr winwood as a keyboard player I had no idea he was a gutiarist he gives the drummer a lot of freedom when he's on rhythm gutiar

This is a great video. They are excellent. Even better.
It looks like they're having a blast. 👍🏼Rock on!

ERIC AND STEVE TOP TOGETHER 👍💞👍💞👍💞💞💞💞💞

Not sure why someone would give a thumb's down. This is just a fun listen.

grandeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Wish Eric would just hurry up and own that word and yell ‘“DIIIIRRRTYEEEE ....cocaine!

Chris Stainton has been playing for so many years !!! Remember "Mad Dogs and Englishmen"?

I have seen them individually in concert, but would love to see them performing together, like this....

Where's sharron and michelle.?

He left out... "if you want to crawl the carpet, baby we can park it...cocaine"

Só sei que ele é um dos magos da guitarra

mix the keyboard DOWN - he's annoying at best. otherwise this is a great reunion

great job of not capturing the piano solo at the end camera guys!!

perfect "jam" song...........damn

💚B❤️ B. GIORNO YT.
NON POTEVA INIZIARE
MEGLIO LA GIORNATA.
VERA BIOGRAFIA....
ERIC C.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
LA MIA GIOVINEZZA.

MUSIC LIKE YOU NEVER HEARD, THAT'S WHY HE WAS PART OF CREAM!!!!!!!!!!!!

The keyboards just don't fit in. Also, a boring song even with the great SW involved - sorry.

more cow bell please

Cocaine don't Lie...

How many times have I said this Winwood is sooo good n so is Chris (keyboard player)

More than discusse who is the best, we have to enjoy this kind of gaps. Since Blind Faith these two musicians showed to be the best. But their destinity were opposite.

Fuck```

You are a great guitarist god bless Master Clapton never stop playing

Simply the BEST rock and blues musicians playing BRILLIANTLY and singing with soul!!!!

what guitar did eric use was that a silver sky PRS ?

Eric like many of us that age had done our fair share of Cocaine however Steve Winwood never turned on to anything, he was a straight arrow, clean Jesus freak kind of guy, but he still knew how to rock even when he was 16-17 years old and singing, playing Piano, in his cousins band The Spencer Davies Group and then Traffic and then Blind Faith, I was along all those years, seen Blind Faith in Hyde Park in whatever year it was either 1968 or 69 as those two years kinda come together as one in my head....

Two Masters.

Two great guitarist jamming together. On one great song! If you don't like this VIDEO. You must be dead! Long live Rock n Roll Baby! SHAWN

Three of the greatest....(Chris Staiton on piano)....

Fuck Yeah! COCAINE THE SONG NOT THE DRUG!! ROCK ON 🤘🏻🎸❤️💋

If you like the blues, you got to take her out. You know what I mean. Beautiful guitars, and the keyboard. Light it up.

“Cocaine” is actually a song by J.J. Cale in 1976 but ultimately known for the Eric Clapton cover in 1977 and eventually added in 1980 to his album Slowhand.

Clapton used cocaine and alcohol as a way to curb his heroin addiction and he felt that he was able to sing about it because he didn’t believe it controlled his life and he could quit whenever he wanted.

Eric Clapton clearly stated that the song is – “quite cleverly anti-cocaine”.

In an interview (reference here) he said –

It’s no good to write a deliberate anti-drug song and hope that it will catch. Because the general thing is that people will be upset by that. It would disturb them to have someone else shoving something down their throat. So the best thing to do is offer something that seems ambiguous—that on study or on reflection actually can be seen to be “anti"—which the song "Cocaine” is actually an anti-cocaine song. If you study it or look at it with a little bit of thought … from a distance … or as it goes by … it just sounds like a song about cocaine. But actually, it is quite cleverly anti-cocaine.

If you want to hang out, you've gotta take her out, cocaine
If you want to get down, get down on the ground, cocaine
She don't lie, she don't lie, she don't lie,
Cocaine
If you got that lose, you want to kick them blues, cocaine
When your day is done, and you want to ride on cocaine
She don't lie, she don't lie, she don't lie,
Cocaine
If your day is gone, and you want to ride on, cocaine
Don't forget this fact, you can't get it back, cocaine
She don't lie, she don't lie, she don't lie,
Cocaine
She don't lie, she don't lie, she don't lie,
Cocaine

I replace cocaine with "propane", my heating source, amuses me..

penso che Steve Winwood come chitarrista non abbia bisogno di... presentazioni... Due ARTISTI in UNO

unexpected piano!

Eric plays this his own solo in Cocaine. Plus Steve, and the keyboard player. We got better as we got older.

All around one of the best versions ever.

Great lead

I was going to make a comment on this performance, then I read all the other comments - yeh. ok, agreed!

That keyboard man was pissed okay, sounds good though, it's different it's like he was fighting you throw it back at him.

Eric Clapton is the reason I own a Fender American Stratocaster.
