It was 50 years ago tonight (January 13th, 1973) that Eric Clapton performed his legendary comeback concerts at London's Rainbow Theatre. The two concerts were organized by the Who's Pete Townshend in an effort to coax a deeply heroin addicted Clapton back into the spotlight for a pair of shows featuring Clapton, himself, Steve Winwood, Ron Wood, Jimmy Karstein and Traffic’s Jim Capaldi on drums, Blind Faith’s Ric Grech on bass, and percussionist Rebop Kwaku Baah. Clapton's Rainbow shows featured a cross section of tunes from "Slowhand's" stints in Cream, Blind Faith, Derek & The Dominoes, and his one solo album, 1970's self-titled collection. The star-studded backing band was jokingly announced at the concerts as "The Palpitations." Eric Clapton
