24 Nights is a live album by Eric Clapton, recorded at The Royal Albert Hall in London, England in 1990 and 1991. It was released on October 8, 1991. The album is indeed a "best of" from the 32 concerts Eric Clapton did at the Royal Albert Hall in 1990, and it's said that no one knows why it came out as "24 Nights" when there were 32.

Explanation is that Eric set a new record by playing in 1991 a run of 24 nights at the London Royal Albert Hall between February 5 and March 9 following the 18 nights run from 1990.
