6 Degrees Of Led Zeppelin Post # 16

When Neil Schon was an up & coming guitarist in the California music scene, 2 very gifted guitarists wanted him in their band. Carlos Santana wanted to add a fuller guitar sound to the live shows, plus give himself a guitar player to play off of, to stretch his abilities.

The other guitar player was non other than Eric Clapton who wanted Neil Schon to join his band Derek & The Dominoes. Neil chose to join Santana.

Eric Clapton of course was guitarist for The Yardbirds before Jimmy Page joined the band.

  1. Such a great site you have. Thanks for posting some really rare and quality stuff. Do you know if anyone else is having trouble opening the zip files for these shows. They don't seem to open for me. I am using Unarchiver and it usually opens zips. Thanks and Regards, NYCRon

  2. I haven't had any complaints about not being able to open a zip file yet. But will check the files to see if there is a problem.
