Entry published in Bootlegs / Last modified on 26 August 2005

Eric spent most of 2000 in the studio recording Riding With The King (with B.B. King) and his own solo effort, Reptile. His major concert appearance of the year was with Carlos Santana in Tokyo as a surprise guest.

No unreleased material from Eric’s extensive sessions has surfaced. The only bootleg to appear is:

Special Day – Santana featuring Eric Clapton (Sylph / 5)
Santana was riding high on the success of his blockbuster album Supernatural (which features Eric on one track). A very good Santana show, Eric steps out and joins Carlos for 8 songs. This evening marked the first time since Eric’s 1975 tour that they jammed on stage. Standouts are “The Calling”, “Apache”, “Soul Sacrifice” and “Jingo.”
