      Watch "Mean Woman Blues" with Clapton and Carl Perkins, Eric looked and played enthusiastic with Carl Perkins and Carl was amazed with Eric's performance. I understand the flaws of 70's and 80's Eric Clapton but also realize he was probably drunk here and he didn't get totally clean and sober until November of 1987. Like Stevie Ray Vaughan after he got sober, he and Clapton were at their peak after they got clean and sober!! In short, Clapton is god!!!

      For real the truth has been spoken. At 15 yrs old the Beatles themselves knew George Harrison was the real deal. When asked for an audition he promply mounted a tour bus and schooled Lennon and McCartney on how to play lead guitar on a summer night in 1958. Made them believers so fast they hired a fifteen year old ON THE SPOT. 15 YEARS OLD!!! Lennon only knew banjo chords and Macca couldnt play lead guitar.......Yet. George could, with authority.

    I met Carl Perkins in 1996 to get the biography book signed and dated he show up looking skinny with two guys to help him over to the table, he set in a rocking chair with a microphone 🎤 to tell a story it was about an hour I was like wow, enjoying it the whole time it was worth it. My dad was there as well he's a huge fan and I sit in the front row. Only 50 people show up.

    We can see that George has listened millions and billions of Carl Perkins, because he used to play it so naturally, smoothy and perfectly that he could play a whole night of country music!

    Carl was there at the birth of rock n roll and rockabilly and his contribution to the emerging genre was priceless. RIP

    Carl Perkins was such an influence on this in attendance. Especially George.

    George Harrison probably remembered and cherished this moment for the rest of his life
