Eric Clapton is the only guitarist that never plays any "useless" note to "show off" like most of guitarists do. Every note he plays has a feeling and it's so clean. He doesnt do those cliche licks 99% of the guitarists do . You can't predict what he's gonna play next!

Saw slow hand last September in Nashville. He still has it. Been listening since the 70's. He can keep a solo going forever.......

The Man that made me to Pick up the Guitar and Mayer made me carry it all the way to this day.

Questo assolo é una cosa inspiegabile e la sensazione che mi trasmette è paradisiaca ....l'avrò guardato milioni di volte!!!

Clapton always seems to reinvent his songs every live set, to make them sound new. He's amazingly creative.

2:46 - 2:56 you can actually hear his soul come out of that guitar - wow

For his work and age I could say, for sure, one of the most hard work man in business. He is virtuoso, and old wine quality aging superstar, and also very humble - in many occasions he honor SRV, and that tells he is realy in love in music, in guitar. He enjoys playing, he is doing for joy, for art, he is not hostage of vanity. Great man, great player, simple as that.

Looks so simple in comparison to the new guitar heroes but so great expression of soul !!!! An incredible sound ! That's what I love !!!

I just don't UNDERSTAND how he able to DO that. It sounds like no one else, but it is still 'just' a guitar.

Clapton loves Japan and Japan loves Eric. He has been there many times. There are people in high places in their government that get Clapton to play, they have given him awards and treat him like a King, and his family as well.

not a patch on 2004 crossroads festival, which I regard as the zenith (not just for Clapton, but for everyone) But a mighty fine showing from my favourite guitarists.
