Eric Clapton / The Circus Left Town

[Philippe GENSBITTEL]

--
During its famous MTV unplugged performance, Eric CLAPTON played a
really beautiful song which does not appear on the record nor on the
official video : "The Circus Left Town". Furthermore, I did not find
it on its most recent records.

Does anybody know where I can find it ?

Thanks in advance.

I think the reason "Circus Left Town" was never released was due to the extreme
personal nature of the song. I think E.C. wanted to protect the song from the
mass-market exposure that nearly "ruined" "Tears in Heaven" for alot of E.C.
fans. It's kind of a shame, since the song is just gorgeous. If you want a copy
of the song, you'll have to get it from the Mtv or radio broadcast. Who knows,
maybe E.C. someday will feel like releasing it, but I'd doubt it....
