Texas Melanie Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 I was in the Nishi-Shinjuku bootleg district this weekend talking to some of the proprieters he had visited the last time he was in Japan. He's still very much a legend and very much loved over here. Three bands dominate sales figures within the district: Led Zeppelin, The Rolling Stones and Eric Clapton. Thank you for the info. I knew there was a reason I liked Japan(besides sushi). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strider Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 Appreciate all the info you provide, Steve, especially that link that let's you hear Jimmy's statement. Figured LZ and the Stones would be high on list of bootleg sales BUT Eric Clapton?!? Thought it would be the Beatles or even Queen or U2 in the top 3 ahead of Clapton.

I haven't hit every store - there are many - but that's the consensus so far. Eric played Japan recently and has a fairly new album out which may have sparked a resurgence of interest in his live recordings. He's also done some promotional work for a Japanese guitar manufacturer which I have posted to the Eric Clapton is God thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
