Is Eric Clapton a god of his instrument?

[Umma]

As far as skill can reflect perfection... he's pretty much on the button

:strumma:

This is truly a versatile guitarist - he can do rock, country, blues, pyschedelic - and anything inbetween. A big fan here :good job:

Take a listen to Crossroads - from Cream's Wheels of Fire, Layla from Derek & the Dominoes, After Midnight from his solo album, Badge from Blind Faith, My Guitar

Gently Weeps from The Beatles - thats quite a range.

liesabath sent me his recent show live in Belfast....

Excellent stuff.. :good job:

I don't listen to his music much at all, but he is talented.

[Umma]

no problem dutch... I'll send you a copy :)

I admit he's always been a great guitar player but there are others that run rings around him.

seems appropriate to put this pic here too :D

I agree with the dog

he was great for a time, but nobody can suck the vibrancy and soul from classic blues like he can

I do think he is a GOD. Eric is one of my favorites on guitar. I have seen him live and he puts on a great show. :good job:

ABSOLUTELY LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT CLAPTON.

[Crazy Diamond]

out of curiosity is there any reason why this was pinned?

[DudeAsInCool]

It was pinned the week of his guitar fest in Texas when we ran a series of articles on him and JJCale and others... Thanx for reminding us--I will unpin it...
