Last night was the first night of Eric Clapton’s Crossroads Guitar Festival which was held at Madison Square Garden in NYC. The evening started with an acoustic set from EC and continued through the Allman Brothers Band’s six-song closing set. We’ll have more on Friday’s festivities soon, but we wanted to share an impressive covered delivered by John Mayer and Keith Urban of Don’t Let Me Down.
Urban and Mayer are mainstream stars who can still shred melodically and energetically on guitar. This version of Don’t Let Me Down, a song The Beatles recorded during the Let It Be sessions that wound up as the b-side on the Get Back single, offered plenty of opportunity for Keith and John to show off their skills. Thanks to LazyLightning55, we can watch it mere hours after the killer cover happened…
