NE: There are many, many, many great ones. Obviously, the tour with George
Harrison was one of those special, magical ones. Most of the music throughout
those years was just a joy to make. The tragic one was the helicopter
experience with Stevie Ray Vaughan, having flown with that pilot and done two or
three rides on that particular helicopter. That's one you don't forget too soon.
We played that night with Stevie Ray and Robert Cray. I'll never forget that
night.
A lot of times you look up and here's another legend coming to the stage to
join. We played at the Albert Hall for the queen. Been around Japan a handful
of times, and around the world several times.
MF: You mentioned Stevie Ray. What was the effect of Stevie Ray and Clapton
together?
NE: The effect was two guys playing their hearts out.
MF: Did they drive each other?
NE: Oh yeah. There was a lot of eye contact, a lot of back and forth,
inspiration, dialog, conversation.
MF: That must have been amazing playing with George Harrison on his last
tour.
NE: Yeah, that was the last tour. He was like family after that. We really
were close. I spoke to his wife the other day. It was his birthday a couple of
days ago. She was in India playing The Concert for George for about 30,000
people there. We had been to his house. My folks had met him and been to his
house in England. He was one of the most gracious, kind, and great human beings
you'd ever want to meet. He was a Beatle [laughs]. He's an icon.
MF: He was a really great songwriter, which wasn't recognized for a long
time.
NE: Yeah, you realize his contribution when you're on tour with him and you
hear all these great tunes in a row.
