Roger waters (w/ Eric Clapton on Guitar): Thanks For The Ride Eric!! 1984

[itsjustme2.0]

Roger Waters - Thanks for the Ride Eric!!
After recording “Money And Cigarettes” in 1983, Eric Clapton would not have a stable band for long periods. In late 1983, Eric joined the “ARMS Supergroup”. (ARMS is an acronym for Action Research Into Multiple Sclerosis.) The band played several dates in England and the US to raise money for Multiple Sclerosis research. Also in the band were Jeff Beck, Jimmy Page, Joe Coc ker and Bill Wyman and Charlie Watts of the Rolling Stones. Eric then joined Roger Water’s band (ex-Pink Floyd) for the recording of Waters’ album “The Pros And Cons Of Hitchhiking” (August 1983) and the subsequent 1984 tour. Eric did this against the advice of his manager and signed on as “just the guitar player”.

Thanks! Always good to see RW and EC posts!

[binky2]

Thanks! I'm 99% sure this is the same as a cassette copy I have. If it is, and is properly labeled, that would make the location Stockholm. Still no exact date though.

Great post takes me back to the Birmingham NEC show the same year.

[ruby101]

Thanks.
Do you have info on the date?
Also, CDs should be reversed. On this tour RW started with the PF set, then Hitchiker LP and finished with Brain Damage/ Eclipse for an encore.
