Looking for insights into Eric Clapton's legendary Unplugged album? Look no further than my new series, where I interview the people who were involved in the making of the album and explore what made it so special. In previous episodes, I talked with Clapton's guitar player Andy Fairweather Low and his piano player Chuck Leavell. In this episode, I chat with bass legend Nathan East, who has played with some of the biggest names in the music industry. Join us for an insightful conversation about Eric Clapton's Unplugged album, featuring exclusive behind-the-scenes details and personal anecdotes from Nathan East. Don't miss out!
