I am 74 and am still rocking with Eric. I have a DVD set that includes almost all of his meaningful gigs. Can't tell you how many times I have watch the DVDs but it would probably be close to fifty times. Also attended the hours long show that was played on a huge movie screen. Lots of people in my age bracket were there much to my amazement.
Eric Clapton , is maybe the MOST Important Musician in the 20. Century . For me ...He had a DREAM Carriere , He is a Legend , His Guitar Style is so Genial + His Absolute Unique Voice ... I Have ALL Records ,Every Band , i Know what i am talking about ,His Music was ALWAYS so Sophiscated or DAMM HOT in the Beginning (Crossroads-Cream ), ijust LOVE his Music so much and i like to play the Songs on Guitar .. Thank you Eric for the Music !
Does the rest of this exist? If so where can I go to find it? Kind of strange to start something like this and not finish it. So if possible could you please post the remaining sections, cheers!
*@Treble Clef* `````````````````````` I enjoyed watching part 1 but was very disappointed that parts 2, 3 and 4 are nowhere to be found. Any chance for "to be continued" ? The link you've posted turns into "This video is unavailable" message.
his best guitar playing was probably when nobody was shooting film .the CD John Mayall's BLUES BREAKERS at least, captures him at his best .somebody HAS to have something on film from that era.
I take from this a total lack of foresight on the part of the other members of the Yardbirds that they weren't smart enough to feature the solos of Clapton more as he was the main draw.
Never was a Yardbirds fan, allergic to Keith Relf. The Clapton break through for me was the instrumental B side of "For Your Love". I was born in a place where there was a small circulation of black music from American servicemen. There was a slight trickle down from older girls who had interesting friends. First record that was really mine, hidden from my parents & a fink of a sister who would dob you up as soon as look at you, was a well worn T-Bone Walker 78. When I got to Art School in '64 I was ready.
What do you mean the yardbirds had more great guitar talent then you could shake a stick at!!..led zeppelin happend because of the yardbirds!..had they been left to get on with it productionwise they would have kicked more arse!!
It's taken for granted that the blues originates from American blacks. Complex theories have been cooked up about how it came from Africa with the slaves. I'm . . . old and have been playing the blues on guitar and harmonica for fifty years. Simultaneously I've had a lot of experiences with American Indian ceremonies - sweat lodges, fasts, lore - and came to the realization that the blues comes American Indian culture. The slow, moody, dark emotional release of pain that is simulteneously a spiritual experience that is heard in pow wow group drum songs is much more like the blues than African music that is almost always fast, busy and extroverted - not sad, not introspective but celebratory I think is the clue to the origin of the blues. Professor John Mohawk wrote somewhere that the term the blues is in Mohawk culture as a reference to the blue black thuderheads that appear before a major storm. Blues is the basis of rock and roll and of jazz - and most of the very early players are black. But if you lean how to look, you can see that most American blacks are not pure black like African blacks but are of mixed blood. The assumption is that that other blood is white. But there is a third blood that plays a big role for blacks experience of slavery. And that was their exposure to the equally oppressed and enslaved and genocided American Indian. At night, in the South during the 1700 and 1800's, blacks and Indians would meet and play music as they had no language in common but sure were having one horrible experience at the hands of European whites. That playing of the simplest instruments available - drums and flutes - accompanied by singing in non-language - moaning, repetitive syllables, chanting, screaming . . . that is the origin of the blues. Many white bloodlines have Indian blood and very many black bloodlines have American Indian blood. Rock and Roll has penetrated all cultures of the world and the assumption is that it is black when in fact it's American Indian soul music.
To you Mr. M.McK, randolphr & others... I guess Mr. Treble Clef meant that "And the rest is history"... :-))) But maybe he'll complete this emptiness one day...
I never liked Chuck Berry. His personality was very egotistical and he acted like he was some king and everyone in his band or anyone invited to play with him better not upstage him. Jimi Hendrix played backup in his group for a little bit but hit the road finding this out. Can't stand musicians acting like prima donnas. I never liked jazz anyway. More in to classic rock, folk, soft rock, prog-rock and classical, some pop from back in the 60'-70's and Motown.
Open up your mind. You never liked jazz anyway ???? Translation: You never bothered to find out. Maybe, you’ll find out when you are 70. So you dismiss great musicians who are prima donnas. I dismiss all musicians who wear flowery shirts. Couldn’t possibly listen to Jimi Hendrix. Lol.
I don`t like this long, grey haired guy. He is so oversmart, seemed to know all and how he talked. He is in many docus, allways talking rubbish and his slang.
in the 60s the real eric clapton was known as the fastest guitar player in the world. now the fake clapton is known as slowhand..because he cant play very well. look at the pic.

If I am not mistaken, the narrator here is Mr. John Illsley, the bassist and only long-time member of Dire Straits. I thought I knew that voice!

Fascinating history

Amigo ¿Podrías agregar la parte 3 y 4 por favor? Gracias
his best guitar playing was probably when nobody was shooting film .the CD John Mayall's BLUES BREAKERS at least, captures him at his best .somebody HAS to have something on film from that era.
Yes the tone on that record is really cool,..the solo in all my love is one of my favourites!
Have a look at his studio jam sessions with Duane Allman. The best jam sessions of all time.
@@danielallan5058 and he is just flying in "Steppin Out" My favourite of that album. This was Eric just peaking for the onset of Cream
Amazing person !!!!
Thank you
T-Bone Walker did Stormy Monday Cream played it at the reunion show in 05

the Brando of electric guitar has no film? Freddie King was so simple ,but incredibly funky and rhythmic.I heard that he used banjo picks.
Where's the 1970's Review?
What is the song at 17.52 ?
+James Moran Sounds like "Steppin' Out". One of Clapton's pure solo songs. Live Cream vol 2 has an extended version. The ending is an Epiphany.
so this is an interview about eric clapton.... without eric clapton?
jimmy page they are showing old interviews while interviewing other people
GOD
Hell of a blue's guitarist
17:52 song?
AB Steppin Out
so geil

What in the world are you talking about?
@@brendaalvarez4550 I just read what I wrote and it's clear to me. No big words. Pretty easy to understand.
To you Mr. M.McK, randolphr & others...
I guess Mr. Treble Clef meant that "And the rest is history"... :-)))
But maybe he'll complete this emptiness one day...
A legend !
Yeah!!! where are!! Dude or Dude ette!
What separates the greats like Clapton is they all can write as well as play.
Alan Clayson gives me pain in my ass.
Why does Top Topham look so desperate when talking about his memories?
I like the other commentators but Alan Clayson. Had to fast forward him. Sounds like he's spitting all the time.
I never liked Chuck Berry. His personality was very egotistical and he acted like he was some king and everyone in his band or anyone invited to play with him better not upstage him.
