Eric Clapton je anglický bluesový a rockový gitarista, spevák a skladateľ, považovaný za jedného z najvplyvnejších gitaristov všetkých čias.

Album Eric Clapton's Crossroads Guitar Festival 2019 zachytáva koncertné vystúpenia z festivalu, ktorý Clapton založil v roku 2004 ako prehliadku špičkových svetových gitaristov. Šesťvinylový album vydaný v roku 2019 obsahuje unikátne živé verzie od hostí ako Jeff Beck, John Mayer, Bonnie Raitt, Gary Clark Jr., Buddy Guy, Tedeschi Trucks Band, James Bay, Sheryl Crow a ďalších. Medzi najvýraznejšie momenty patrí spoločné vystúpenie Claptona s Peterom Framptonom na While My Guitar Gently Weeps a Jeffa Becka na Big Block.
