I’m lying here in tears. Beck has crossed over the River❤️RIP Brother. This was one of my grandparents favorite songs. As a young Boy in the mid 60s. They would play this often. Jeff Becks Guitar Work on this is so Heavenly out of this World. Soaring. To see Clapton by his side and singing this classic song. You could tell Clapton was mesmerized by Becks take on this. Very moving emotional moment in time🇺🇸

A number of years ago a tv series used the Andy Williams version of this masterpiece of composition and emotion. I was immediately struck by it so unexpectedly. I knew of the song before then but hadn’t taken time to stop and really listen. So my hearing it in full accidentally is a wonderful thing. This year, which is about to end, I lost my twin brother the beginning of April. My dear mother passed on two months later at an amazing 91 years old. And thirdly, my wife loves huckleberries. So it is this song which makes me think of each of them all at once… instantly, intensely and so emotionally. I also happen to be a musician and guitar player. To have stumbled across this, not ever knowing Clapton and Beck had even ever done this, and to hear them doing it, for the first time in my life is overwhelming. I’m so very grateful to them, Mr. Mancini, Mr. Williams, and the documenter of this and the poster.
If I write any more I will collapse, so thank you, and I hope and pray for everyone to have peace this year. As a race we are in a desperate situation. Let’s be good to each other despite our differences. James K.
