"Crossroads brought together all the players I had admired and respected over the years. It was like a magic circus, a dream come true. " – Eric Clapton

In 1999 Eric Clapton invited a handful of musicians to join him on stage at New York’s Madison Square Garden to raise money for his Crossroads Centre, an addiction rehabilitation centre in Antigua. Over the course of nearly 15 years, the festival grew into a celebration of guitar playing that drew musicians and fans from around the world.

Telling this story through a wealth of stunning photographs and original commentary from world-renowned musicians, Sunshine of Your Love is Eric Clapton's official limited edition book and record set documenting the Crossroads Guitar Festivals, 1999-2013. Featuring archival photos and exclusive interviews with Eric Clapton and the performers who took part, each numbered copy is signed by Eric Clapton and at least two other legendary Crossroads musicians.

THE PHOTOGRAPHY

SUNSHINE OF YOUR LOVE

"Staging these festivals, for what I believe is a serious, worthy cause, has been the culmination of all my musical ambitions, and created the opportunity for me to replay my entire journey through music." - Eric Clapton

Interspersed throughout the book are also vintage photographs that illustrate the rich tapestry of musical influences and collaborations that can be traced through the history of guitar music.  Eric Clapton's work in the Yardbirds, Cream, Blind Faith, Delaney & Bonnie and Derek and the Dominos is documented, and pages are dedicated to subjects such as the history of the slide guitar - from Elmore James to Duane Allman - and to the continuing significance of the Chicago bluesmen. 

THE MANUSCRIPT

SUNSHINE OF YOUR LOVE

"Eric's been such a great person for guitar players. Anybody would be happy to be a part of this." - Buddy Guy

The musicians who performed at the Crossroads festivals tell the story, taking the reader through their musical influences, experiences at the festivals, and their appreciation of each other's music. 

The 36,000-word manuscript not only documents the extraordinary series of Crossroads concerts but also tells a wider story. Multi-generational voices from blues legends such as B.B King, Johnny Winter and Buddy Guy to the newer guard of guitar virtuosos, such as John Mayer and Gary Clark Jr., recount the rich history of guitar music and of the many genres it encompasses, from blues to country, from jazz to rock 'n' roll.

THE CONTRIBUTORS

SUNSHINE OF YOUR LOVE

"I call it world music and it's a brotherhood. Guitar players do not compete with each other. You compete in sports, but music is about complementing." - Carlos Santana

The original manuscript draws on previously unpublished interviews, extending to over 200 pages, with new text from Eric Clapton and from friends such as J.J. Cale, Robert Cray, Sheryl Crow, Vince Gill, Buddy Guy, B.B. King, John Mayer, Robert Randolph, Carlos Santana, James Taylor, Derek Trucks, Steve Winwood, Ronnie Wood and many, many more.
