Don't you get it. In the USA, prior 1966 it was known that white supremacy ruled and only a white man could shine in the USA. Or they burned you down or take you out. Black Americans were not to shine like Hendrix did after going to Britain.

U forgot to mention that he opened with "Killing Floor" with Clapton... and Eric couldn't keep up. "JIMI'S" version of "Killing Floor" had an intro that sounded like a RUNAWAY LOCOMOTIVE 🚂 that was high on ELECTRICITY!! Eric left the stage and asked CHAS CHANDLER while trying to light a cigarette and shaking, "Is he really that good??"

1966. Hendrix lands in the UK. I was working as a guitar tech for Jeff Beck. My girlfriend, Marianne Faithfulll, had just rented us a flat in the theater district. We bumped into Eric Clapton on the way to the savoy theater to see this new hot shot kid from America. I ended up dumping my girlfriend and started dating Clapton and Hendrix unbeknownst to the both of them.

Yeah this never happened. After Jimi had been playing around England, Pete Townsend rang Eric Clapton and invited him to an afternoon cinema, Pete asked Eric what do you think of this new guy ripping off your stuff? Eric said he thought it was great.

So, Hendrix was good. Got it.

I became a Cream fan a few months before they broke up, and during that time, Eric Clapton ruled! He had it all; tone, taste, feel, the touch, improvisation skill, phrasing...... In that year of 68 I also got into Jimi Hendrix. If you're into all that showmanship stuff, that's fine. However, you can't see that when you're listening to a record on the turntable! For whatever reason, Clapton's playing changed after 1970. Gone was the absolute brilliance he exhibited in his Cream days.
