Eric Clapton guested on the Jools Holland Hootenany television show, which was recorded at the BBC studios on 16th December and will be broadcast on New Year's Eve. Eric recorded "Stop Breakin’ Down Blues" and a blistering version of "Little Queen Of Spades" from his recent Robert Johnson album. His backing band for the evening was the Jools Holland Rhythm and Blues Orchestra.
In addition to performing, Eric gave a short interview and was asked if the speculated Cream reunion would happen in 2005. He responded "maybe" and joked that the band might split up again before a reunion could happen.
Other guests on the show included Amy Winehouse, Franz Ferdinand, Paul Carrack, Mavis Staples, Natasha Bedingfield and Ian Hunter.
