Clapton does Dixie with the help of Wynton Marsalis. You've come a long way, baby, since your early days as a 60's Brit rocker. :clapping

Just a Closer Walk With Thee

If you want to go out in style, opt for a New Orleans funeral with the band playing this number.
 
OMG, I'd pay money to have seen that show.That was a great arrangement of "Layla" It was nice to hear Clapton on that hollow body Gibson

Judging by the length of the numbers, you most certainly would have gotten your $$ worth. Go the the Youtube links for videos of more numbers from the concert.
