Nathan East w/ Clapton on PBS

Was watching the Clapton concert special on PBS a couple of night ago. Gotta say that Nathan East's tone on that show is un-freaking-believable. Every note has fullness, bottom, clarity, and punch without being
over punchy or overpowering anywhere in any song. Of all the musicians on stage, his tone may be the best.
Then there's his solid, in the pocket, riff like nobody else playing. I just love watching him play. And he always looks like he's loving what he's doing.

Agreed. Nathan East is awesome. I was blessed to see him with Clapton and Billy Preston in Portland Oregon when my wife bought us tickets for my birthday.
Even live his tone and style were phenomenal. I also love his playing with Phil Collins. Someday watch the 2004 concert with Phil live in Paris. Live and Loose in Paris.
Nathan used an old 4 x 12 Marshall cab with a Marshall head when he played with Clapton. Sounded so excellent.
