The Core at The Vista Room
October 25, 2019 · Decatur, GA
The Core headlined The Vista Room in Decatur on October 25, 2019, drawing material from Eric Clapton's catalog and blues standards. The thirteen-song set included "Badge" from Cream, "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" from The Beatles, "Call Me the Breeze" by J.J. Cale, "Why Does Love Got to Be So Sad?" and "Layla" from Derek and the Dominos, "I Shot the Sheriff" by The Wailers, and Robert Johnson's "Cross Road Blues," closing with "The Core" by Clapton. The night marked the first performance of "Wonderful Tonight," an Clapton composition that had not appeared in the band's prior sets. This was their third visit to The Vista Room in five months, following a June 2019 appearance.
