      It is so strange that I am reading this wonderful advice here, first thing of my day, in such an unusual place and paired up with Eric Clapton. I sooo needed this this morning. I am usually not touchy feely, but not doing so hot lately. I know it'll get better in time. But, to whomever wrote this comment, I feel as if it were written just for me and in a particular time. Thank you so much, you put a big smile on my face.

    Eric Clapton is one out-freaking-standing songwriter, musician, and singer. But what makes him the G.O.A.T. is how he respects his musicians. Gives them all opportunities to shine. Cool as fill-in-the-blank Eric.👍❤👍

    River of Tears - what an emotional song!!! Couldnt believe it when the opening chords struck up during his recent gig at Birmingham Uk (2024). More than one point during it i found myself closing my eyes and just immersing myself in the music as it washed over me and thru me.

    Eric Clapton wrote Tears in Heaven after his 4-year old son died falling from the 53rd floor of an apartment on 20 March 1991. That dreadful accident is the reason why Manhattan apartments all have window guards to prevent such tragedies from happening again. I was a doctor at Bellevue Hospital at the time. It is the most moving song ever written and performed by a grieving father for his son. Clapton was 46 at the time. Clapton’s music, singing, and guitar playing became deeper and better. His music became true blues and Clapton is the best blues guitarist of his generation.

      #TearsInHeaven saved my life after my Mom’s suicide. Literally, everyone thought I was going to die. I wasn’t eating. I wasn’t sleeping. My boss debated training someone else to be assistant manager. I was down to a size zero being way too big! I heard this song 🎶 went out, had a t-shirt made with Mom’s picture on it. And it was printed with the words ‘no more tears in Heaven.’

      I saw this show as well. I thought the concert was masterfully played but a little low key. I think I’ve seen EC in all of his incarnations. It’s often hit and miss. Again, always well played but sometimes very low key. I have to say that with regards to high energy level, his “Nothing But the Blues” tour was great as was Crossroads 2004.

      link biff Because blues guitarists don't play to get attention, they simply play whatever they feel. Guys like Steve Vai and EVH can play million notes per second and yet they fail to give you an thrill. Because is the dynamics(that blues player use) that make guitar solos interesting.

    This video just came on auto play after I was listening to something else and it was my first exposure to Eric Clapton. I've heard the name of course, but I was completely blown away by what I heard! I'm familiar with Steve Gadd's work so I stuck around for more of the concert and I was not disappointed. For his incredible writing and singing while shredding on the guitar, it's easy to see why Eric is considered a true musical legend.

      @@dylanmyers3082 I was referring to the time period in London when his fans would write "Clapton is God" on practically every wall they could find.
      I wasnt talking about Bob Dylan, he was quite obviously one of the greatest influences in music in the 20th Century, but his nickname was "The Jester".
      Now, as far as Eric's opinions of other guitarists, hes always been extremely vocal about them. For instance, he happened to catch Wilson Pickett's version of the Beatles "Hey Jude" (which is amazing if youve not heard it). After hearing the song, Clapton started phoning everyone he knew to try to find out just WHO was playing Guitar, which he finally found out was a "guy named Skydog Allman", later finding out it was Duane. He called it "the best Rock guitar he ever heard. Just a few days later, Eric, along with the rest of what would turn into Derek and The Dominos were taken to see an Allman Brothers Show, sitting up front in the Press Pit. They knew who Eric was, they DIDNT know why he was there..after the concert, they brought them all backstage, they hung out for a while, and Eric invited them back to the studio he was recording at in Florida. Needless to say, they literally jammed until well after sunrise. Thank God someone was smart enough to jump into the sound booth and start the tape recording. They reportedly went thru 3 Electronic Soundboard Techs, and thats where all "The Jams" come from on the Derek and The Dominos "Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs" album.
      Duane even asked Eric to join the Allman Brothers Band, but he declined. He does, on occasion, still jam with them as a "surprise guest" at some shows.
      I saw him a few nites in a row at The Beacon Theater in their "Spring Residence" where they play for a month during the Allmans 40th Anniversary Tour in 2008. Eric was absolutely FLAWLESS, Derek Trucks wouldve made Duane proud with his Slide skills. Eric was even quoted as telling Derek as they walked offstage that he "hadnt played like that since 1969".
      The man has been thru SO much pain of all kinds, and has always managed to turn it into some of history's best music. Hell...hes the ONLY person whos been inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame THREE TIMES.
      We've lost so many great "Legends" just in the past few years, but Eric just keeps going. He truly is the ultimate Bluesman. ✌

I have a personal DVD copy of this concert, watched it more than 50 times (easily), but I'm still holding back my tears watching his rendition of "Somewhere Over The Rainbow"

    Clapton is the perfect rock blues guitar player. He has the feeling, passion, talent, technique and virtuosity. He knows the blues, the roots, and he loves to pay tribute to his heroes. But also was a pioneer on his own, a true original. He is not a dumb shredder, he doesn't stand on the stage just to show off. He knows exactly where to go, how and when, but it doesn't feel calculated though, it feels natural because he can do whatever he wants with the instrument. His guitar is his voice, he sings with it, cries with it, celebrates with it. He is brutaly honest and sincere when he plays the blues. That's why Eric "Slowhand" Clapton is the best guitar player that has ever lived for me.
