Carlos Santana and Eric Clapton - "Jingo" - Live, 2004
Pick any list you can find of the top rock guitarists of all time, and near the top you'll invariably find the names of Carlos Santana and Eric Clapton. Even with vastly different cultural and geographic roots, the two share many characteristics. Both have been actively performing since the '60s and are still touring and recording today. Each has his own distinctive style, but both have had equal impact on rock.
What would it be like if you put them both on the same stage at the same time? That happened in 2004 at Clapton's first Crossroads Guitar Festival. Fasten your seat belts, secure your tray tables, and prepare yourself for some full tilt boogie, as Clapton and Santana cut loose on "Jingo".
