Eric Clapton's Rainbow Concert is an album recorded live at London's Rainbow Theatre on January 13, 1973, and released within the year. The concert was organized by Pete Townshend and marked Eric Clapton's comeback after the 1971 Concert for Bangladesh. In the year after the Rainbow Concert, Clapton recovered from his heroin addiction and recorded 461 Ocean Boulevard.

This concert is the first live performance where Clapton used his famous Stratocaster guitar "Blackie".

A remastered expanded edition of the album was released on January 13, 1995, the 22nd anniversary of the original concert.

A bootleg edition, Eric Clapton and the Palpitations — The Rainbow Concert, 25th Anniversary Edition, was released by the underground label Empress Valley, four CDs of both concerts on January 13, 1973 (the official releases are a mix of songs from both concerts).
