Hot Wax: CROSSROADS REVISITED: SELECTIONS FROM THE CROSSROADS GUITAR FESTIVAL
Eric Clapton’s Crossroads Guitar Festival has been a must-attend event since its inception in 2004, and for those who aren’t able to attend, there have been a successful series of compilations which offer up highlights from these star-packed shows.
