    Just a masterclass of building musical tension and releasing it.

    Ah, when Clapton is on fire I don't think many guitarists can compete. But it isn't about competing, it's about soul, feel and ultimately entertainment. Clapton has a rare gift that even Hendrix can't beat. That's only my opinion.

    Clapton in the 90s to early 2000s is too underrated... I’d put that up there with any of his earlier stuff. It’s like he needed to get a bit older to combine the fire from his youth with the decades of learning licks and styles.

      Gary Clark That true, the blues is easy to play, but hard to feel (to play out the feelings on any instrument), but E.C can do that, better than any one. Can't wait to 8.July to see you,Winwood,Santana and Clapton..

    So much for the younger generation of fools that say CLAPTON's leads are boring. They seem to think shredding has to be included. While I can respect those that have a shredding ability, to me it's NOT music. It's a jumbled mess of noise with no melody. Fitting in a melodic lead solo into a great song takes much more talent, and if he wanted, CLAPTON could do justice to any song with any musician. Yet he’s perfectly content to take the back seat and let others step out and shine.

    When you watch Eric Clapton, you get a complete package. He is surrounded by a coterie of superb musicians who he could learn from and from whom they could also learn.It is musical symbiosis at its forefront. Andy Fairweather Low is an understated musician but if one would keenly observe, his rhythm playing exudes nifty nuances. His vocals are great on this one and right on the dime. And Eric? what one of his TRANCE-LIKE EXCURSIONS.

  • @rikischy27

      That's down to his his unique vibrato, from the elbow. Who else has so much range in one note, only Clapton. Some gypsy jazz players do however use a lot of elbow vibrato.

I saw A.F.L. on the same bill as Hendrix. Look, Listen, Feel and Learn!! F**K Strats, Tele's, LP's or whatever. See if you can do this good.

    The song now most usually called "Gin House" or "Gin House Blues" - with the opening lines "Stay away from me 'cause I'm in my sin / If this place gets raided, it's just me and my gin..." was originally entitled "Me and My Gin", and was recorded by Bessie Smith on 25 August 1928 It was written by "Harry Burke", which may be a pseudonym of the pianist and songwriter James C. Johnson. It is this song which has been recorded by many musicians over the years under the title "Gin House Blues"
