Brian May recently criticized Eric Clapton for his anti-vax views. See the two guitar legends team up to back Joe Cocker at a 1988 charity show.
Clapton and May have performed at a number of charity shows together over the years, and one of the most notable ones took place at the Royal Albert Hall on June 6th, 1988. It was the Prince’s Trust Concert and they were on an incredible bill that also included Phil Collins, Peter Gabriel, Elton John, Leonard Cohen, the Bee Gees, Mark Knopfler,The night wrapped up with everyone onstage for the Joe Cocker version of “With a Little Help From My Friends.
As you can see from this video, it went off very well. But the next day, an engineer told May that they failed to record his guitar parts. “At this moment, my heart kind of sinks,” May said. “I said, ‘Should we just put it on?’ So I went in the truck and played it exactly like I played it the night before.”
The two guitarists joined forces again in 2002 for the Queen’s Golden Jubilee concert, but future collaborations seem unlikely now that May has placed Clapton in the “fruitcake jar.” That’s a hard jar to come out of.
