Your usual great reaction, Britt. Have the day you deserve, too. ☺️♥️
thank you so much! 💕
She is horrible.....she never shuts up.
One of the best guitarists in the world, although when asked how it felt to be the best, he replied "I don't know - you'd have to ask Prince".
Prince is very underrated by those who don't know. Those who know, know.
That’s complete bullshit prince was a fine guitarist but Clapton is much better!!!!!!
Ya I've heard that reply from every top guitarist about every other top guitarist, just insert a different name each time.....
@John Tremmel
But Clapton is also Humble, so he'd always give credit to other greats. Awesome Dude.
He'd ask Prince, get referred to Jimi Hendrix, who would shower Billy Gibbon's of ZZ Top for the best guitarist. Personally, Jimmy Page is the best with David Gilmour being a close second.
This song was written and originally recorded by J.J. Cale on his Troubadour album in 1976. Another great artist that you would do well to not overlook.
♥️✌🏼😎
Tulsa Time!!! GoPokes!
Clapton’s principal songwriter
As a teenager from Central Europe, he discovered the quiet, sensitive guitarist J.J. Cale (AFTER MIDNIGHT is also by him), the bluesy John Hiatt, the songwriter Jackson Browne ... .
His laid-back style is reminiscent of Billie Holiday's style, which Cale says inspired him. The joint album The Road to Escondido with Clapton was deservedly awarded a Grammy for Best Contemporary Blues Album in 2008.✌👍
100% agree. JJ is a monster songwriter and producer, Some of my fave's, worth checking out include: If You're Ever in Oklahoma"; "Same Old Blues"; "Thirteen Days"; "Downtown LA".
@@telebender Don't forget Crazy Mama
Like David Bowie, Eric Clapton continued to evolve as a musician. Trace his career from Cream, through the Yardbirds and Derek and the Dominos to his solo career and you will see how talented he truly is.
His guitar work on the 'Blind Faith' album is historic! Check out his pickin' on 'Can't Find My Way Home'.
Bluesbreakers, Yardbirds, Eric Clapton and the Powerhouse, Cream, Plastic Ono Band, Blind Faith, Delany and Bonnie and Friends, Derek and the Dominos, and finally solo.
Eric is/was a music deity in my house growing up.
Don’t for get his wonderful work with the Yardbirds, Blind Faith, and his hit solo records.
Clapton played in the yardbirds, the Blues breakers, cream, blind faith, derick and the dominos, George Harrison, and his solo band... His 60 year career in music is legendary.
This is actually an anti-drug song about addiction. With that in mind, the lyrics take on a whole different meaning and feel.
wow thanks for the background info!!
It is most definitely not an anti-cocaine song lol. He was an insane cocaine and heroin addict when he released this. He after the fact and many years later tried saying this was anti-cocaine, but at the time of release this was a very pro-cocaine song written for that specific intent by J.J. Cale.
@@Mudcat3434 😂 I met Eric after he got out of rehab… it definitely became an anti drug anthem
@@Mudcat3434 But in this song Eric was definitely saying "she don't like cocaine"... it was a ruination. He did later get over it.
@@Mudcat3434 Ignorant,
For a 68 year old like me it's half difficult and half funny to hear someone not know Eric Clapton's work given how long he's been a rocker and how many bands, besides his own, that he's been in and the number of famous songs he's recorded and more. But the massive age difference thing would explain it.
Clapton has toured for over 50 years, covering 58 countries across six continents. He has played for over two billion people in more than 3,000 concerts so far. His extensive touring experience includes over 200 performances at London’s Royal Albert Hall and more than 50 concerts at Madison Square Garden. Clapton’s albums and songs have received a total of 80 gold, platinum, multi-platinum, and diamond sales awards by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). Eric Clapton has been awarded 17 Grammys since 1972, including an honorary lifetime achievement award in 2006. He has won these awards for his solo work and also shared them for collaborations with other artists such as B.B. King, Carlos Santana, Bob Dylan, Ravi Shankar, etc.
Eric Clapton has Played in 9 Bands. Clapton has released 27 studio albums. After the launch of his professional career with The Yardbirds in 1963, he played with nine bands which are listed below.
The Roosters
Casey Jones and The Engineers
The Yardbirds
John Mayall’s Bluesbreakers
Cream
Delaney & Bonnie & Friends
Blind Faith
Derek & The Dominos

That's pretty thorough. Thank you. Imagine in 50 years when they are all dead and gone and "Brittreacts" is in her 80's what will her successors think of our music? We were pretty lucky to be born in the 50's!
@TN I was going to suggest Bob Dylan to her, but the question is where would she start?
63 here! I concur on your comment!🤣🤣😂😂👍👍
@@declangerardoconnor1321 - "Tangled Up in Blue"?? - "Like a Rolling Stone"?? --- And just a little trivia or oddity about a Dylan song. I'm sure you're familiar with the song "Rainy Day Women #12 & 35" --- Have you ever noticed what you get if you multiply 12 x 35? ---- 420.
I agree with your comment. And we grew up with the very best of music and musical talent!!!
Clapton is one of the 10 best guitarist that have ever played!
Written by JJ Cale, and covered by Clapton.
Eric by covering this song and "After Midnight", Cale use to joke that he lived in the house that Clapton bought him, due to his royalties.
you are fast becoming one of my favourite reactors. i'm housebound, disabled with severe copd/emphysema and a great deal of my time is spent watching you all react to the music of my youth. you brighten up my day. imo, Clapton was at his best, with the group, Cream. they had a reunion concert, in 2005, at the Royal Albert Hall. the song, Crossroads, is my favourite of theirs. even in their old age, they were truly great. he was with one of the greatest ever bassists and an equally great drummer. great performance. please react to it. you'd love it, i'm sure.
This is actually an anti drug song. Played it when I was in a band a long time ago.
Clapton has said that. I don’t buy it.
@@scottedwards33 I'm sure he did his fair share .
Everything he said in the song are the false promises cocaine makes.
Not at the time the song was released. He was heavily addicted to Cocaine and Heroin back then. The song is actually written by J.J. Cale.
No,it wasn't originally BUT since he got clean he changed it to an anti drug song,by inserting the words ' that dirty cocaine '
Long ago, and far away (1977 in Northeastern Arizona) I remember sitting on wooden auditorium bleachers at a high school pep rally and watching our Jazz Band kick into this song instead of what the band director had scheduled for the performance. The crowd went wild, and the Jazz Band was way cooler that week than the football team. Music, like scent, is always a powerful memory generator. Thanks for the reminder of a fun memory.
Britt, Clapton’s been creating hits since the 1960’s. He’s always kept-up with the changing times making his music relevant.
True, but the original version of this song is from J J Cale
BS. He’s an overrated, derivative, 3rd rate blues guitar poser. Plus he’s an antivaxxer racist. He couldn’t carry Jeff Beck’s guitar case.
Eric is everything rock blues even country! One of the guitar gods! Need to do some Cream and Derrick and the Dominoes. Clapton is definitely one of the GOATS. This song is anti drug!
The song was written by singer songwriter J J Cale.
Clapton is one of the most influential guitarists ever. He calls himself a blues player but he has had hits in multiple genres. His is also proof to be great it's not always about technical difficulty or flash. It's about feel and heart. I can play a ton of Clapton songs note for note but it never sounds as good.
Eric Clapton is called "slow hand" because of how he plays the guitar. He can seem to be going slow but he has some of the most incredible guitar playing that you hear ever heard.
He's called "slow hand," because it takes him so long to tune his guitar.
He takes his time.
@@thomashiggins9320 Actually it started in the Yardbirds. When he snapped a string, the fans would slow hand clap him while he was restringing his instrument. This story was originally told by Yardbirds bass player Chris Dreja.
@@thomashiggins9320 Actually, that is not quite right. When he was playing in the clubs in London in the 60s and would break a string (because of his aggressive playing with Bluesbreakers), he would need to re-string, then of course tune, because they had no extra guitars or roadies, then. So the audience would clap while waiting. And it took time. Kevin--it has nothing whatsoever to do with how he plays, slow or fast, which he does both, as appropriate for the song.
I believe it’s about how he used to always break strings - and the band (I believe Derek and the Dominos )would have to wait for him to slowly restring his guitar.
His genre is “ROCK AND ROLL LEGEND”.
Clapton's live duet with Stevie Winwood with this brilliant track is just brilliant too.
When he was with Derrick and the Dominos sang great stuff you cannot miss, Layla original and unplugged, let it Rain, Bell Bottom Blues, Have you ever loved a woman, Evil. Any song with cream, The whole Catalog is Platinum. By himself or with J.J. Cale so many. May start with Lay down sally, After Midnight, My Fathers eyes... Truly a deeply personal song for Eric. Wonderful Tonight is a great all-time love song one of the best. He was with Blind faith and also had Steve Winwood in that band he was overcoming addiction and wrote the song The presence of my lord and can't find my way home.
The covers were great including Bob Dylan's Knocking on heavens door and Bob Marley's I shot the sheriff and Tulsa Time.
River of tears was a great 80's song as is It's in the way that you use it, really this list is short. Eric is the man I pattern my play on the guitar and he is my favorite artist.
Clapton unplugged may be my favorite album
1990, Robert Cray and Eric Clapton played in St Paul and as soon as this song came on we jumped down to the main floor and rushed the stage like everybody else! I'm glad you would have been with us!
The studio version is killer! It has the nastiest coolest guitar intro ever.
He gets into the 70s music for sure, i love his songs he did with BB King, check out ROCK ME BABY its a guitar jam session thats just awsome!
Makes me want to be young and in the club again. My favorite song to dance to
Clapton is a true icon of Rock, Blues and has his own style. He is known as "Slow Hand" for his guitar playing. Back in the day, the Beatles - well John Lennon said something like my gosh we're bigger than Jesus as to their popularity. And Clapton fans responded by saying Clapton is God! But in fact they cross collaborated. Here is Clapton playing lead and singing in a tribute to George Harrison (one of the Beatles who we lost in early 2,000's):
ruclips.net/video/CrTMc2i6Lzc/видео.html (While My Guitar Gently Weeps (Taken from Concert For George))
It's a song George wrote and had Eric Clapton play a guitar part. Notice this concert has 2 Beatles (Paul and Ringo), along with a whole host of other stars playing. And incredibly George Harrison's son Dhani plays acoustic guitar front and center (the guy with the heart shaped sound hole in his guitar) and is the spitting image of George.
And here is a taste of Clapton and the Blues:
ruclips.net/video/sJK78Y3zoQk/видео.html (B.B. King ft. Eric Clapton | Riding With The King ( official video and lyrics))
Clapton had an annual blues/guitar festival called "crossroads" for many years with all sorts of musical stars as guests.
ruclips.net/video/DqeT7QCmhjY/видео.html ("Crossroads" - Eric Clapton, Sheryl Crow, John Mayer, Doyle Bramhall II, Robert Rundolph (Live 2008))
I had the honour to see him in the Royal Albert Hall in the beginning of the nineties. First class with his album Unplugged. Seems that you're talking about his song "Tears in heaven" where he explaines his hard time loosing his son. He went throug a very hard time and he spoke very clear in an interview in US - Television. He is one of the guitar-kings. If you like, check out J.J. Cale and Eric Clapton live with J.J.' s song "anywhere the wind blows". Wish you a good time ahead!
One of the greatest blues guitarist that ever lived.
Great song performed by Eric Clapton and written by the GREAT Singer and song writer J. J. CALE. He also wrote After Midnight that was made famous by Clapton, They Call Me the Breeze made famous by Lynyrd Skynyrd. Eric Clapton and J.J. Cale did an album Road to Escondido together and it won Album of the Year. Just some history for ya.
If you wanna hear some keys (and guitar with extreme swagger, of course) check out Stevie Ray Vaughan doing a live version of "Couldn't Stand The Weather", 1985, Capitol theater!..Massive groove!
This song was a party anthem at the end of the seventies and early eighties.
Eric had another heart warming song too if I saw you in heaven of his pasting of his son love the vibe you show reacting too this song your so awesome here Britt.❤️👍
Actually the song is called Tears In Heaven
Yep, just like that!
King of the slow hand blues!
He’s one of the best guitarists in history. He’s a blues guitarist, at his heart.
Tears in Heaven was originally done on an MTV unplugged show.
A song from the 70's ! Was the type of music we had !
Vietnam , drugs and rock and roll !
one of the best guitarists ever ~ when asked that he said - he didn't know - ya have to ask Roy Clark!!!! I love to slow dance to this back in the 80-90's!!! I never did cocaine back in the day but I stood up & sang to this song!!! I am 74 & I still rock out to this song from my walker!!!! Hey Britt - I can vacuum up a storm to this!!!!!
This song is from his 1977 solo album Slowhand, which a lot of fans consider to be his best. You should also check out Lay Down Sally, Mean Ole Frisco, and Wonderful Tonight from the same album. For most of his career Clapton has been considered the blues-rock guitar GOAT.
Yes me and my band coverd this song for the first time in 1978 a friend of ours came back from the States with a tape of J.J. Cale, the composer of this song, we got crazy and we coverd it and it still is in our repertoire you should hear the original. Stay safe
went to a Clapton concert a few years ago, the man delivers pure and simple,
Clapton can play it all, rock, blues he even covered a Marley song. The song I would suggest you have to listen to it twice. It's about a woman who was the love of his life (at the time) she was married to George Harrison and he called her Layla. In his single version it's a ballad and you might think the lyrics sweet. In the version by Derek and the Dominoes (of which he was a member) Duane Alleman is playing the guitar, it's up tempo and you actually can feel the emotion he had for that woman.
I think it is the most beautiful love song EVER! ❤
He was self taught as was prince and Jimmie hendrix
Lay Down Sally, Old Love, Believe In Life, Layla, Crossroads - please react to any of these, Eric Clapton is wonderful musician who really went through a lot in his life and no doubt he would appreciate some of your time and attention. I've been binging your videos recently, more Harry Mack please!!!
I love CLAPTON! He had his fight with cocaine and won. He is one of the best guitarist that has ever graced the earth. He is LEGEND.
EC is considered one of the greatest guitarists of all time, and his backup singers are incredible
You need to check out "Layla" and songs he did while a member of the bsnd, Cream.. He has had a rich history and career. He's been performing since the 60s and is considered one of the best rock/blues guitarists ever.
This was a JJ Cale song. It is one where, the vibe is more than the lyrics.
Like other commenters said, His life is a musical journey . Every band he played with after Cream had its own style..from southern boogie to reggae. Always returning to his first one, the Blues. Should hear some of his work with BB King. Also you should listen to his first recording of Cross Roads to hear where his Guitar playing legend was based. 2nd solo left me with chills down my spine! Still does!
I really enjoy your reactions. Eric Clapton is my favorite artist of all time. And he's the only person inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame 4 times. And easily one of the two or three best guitarists of all time. You might want to react to Wonderful Tonight.
He’s part of the British blues scene. He’s also the only artist to be inducted into the rock ‘n rock hall of fame three times, once with the group Cream, the group Derek and the Domino’s and as a solo artist.
The studio versions & videos are so much better than alot of live versions of songs. This and The Dance by Garth that you did is so much better on the video versions
Eric Clapton is one of the best musicians, and his story is truly great. He is one of the musicians that inspired me to take up guitar years ago. Eric is definitely a rock legend, but his support and contribution to the blues music scene is truly phenomenal and overlooked. Please review more of his music!
I love your reactions to the song, more than I love the song! girl! you crack me up!!!!!😂😂🤣🤣👍👍
haha thank you !!
I've seen Clapton twice in concert, once rock, one "A Night of the Blues". Both were amazing. The man made love to his guitar. Layla - there are two great versions. The original studio version, and the unplugged version, very different, and written about George Harrison's wife (who Clapton then got together with). Wonderful Tonight is my favorite love song ever. Tears in Heaven is the one you heard before. White Room was All 70s fun. Sunshine of Your Love, Can't Find my Way Home, Change the World, Lay Down Sally, Crossroads, and the classic, I Shot the Sheriff. Something really trippy like Tales of Brave Ulysses. Bell Bottom Blues. It's in the Way that You Use It. Let it Grow. She's Gone.
I finally saw him last year and he put on a great show. His band is loaded with talented musicians also.
Eric Clapton has a huge catalog, he was a founding member of the Yardbirds that eventually morphed into Led Zeppelin, left their because they were getting to mainstream to join Cream a supergroup with two other big time musicians, he was friends with Jimi Hendrix, he was the 6th Beatle their last album he did a lot of the guitar work on it, tried to steal George Harrison's (Beatles guitarist) wife, re-did Bob Marley's song Who Shot The Sheriff, formed a band with Duane Allman of the Allman Brothers and had maybe his biggest hit with them in Layla (a song about George Harrison;s wife) that band was called Derrick and the Dominoes, he then became huge friends with Stevie Ray Vaughn and was touring with him when Vaughn died. In between a lot of this were drug addiction hard times ect, then in the 90's I think he did the first MTV Unplugged where he sang Tears In Heaven about his sons death. He may have lived the most rock and roll life ever....
One of the greatest guitarist of all time yes the song about his son was great tears in heaven I think it is
One of my favorite performers. I could listen to him ALL DAY
Saw him in the late 80’s with Robert Cray. UN-FREAKING-BELIEVABLE.
Unbelievable guitarist! Love him
Eric Clapton has been all over the place in his life. He was a serious heroine and alcoholic who didn’t leave his house for three years. He got off the heroin - and then starting drinking heavily. Somewhere in there he added the coke.
In 1986, he became clean and sober. His motivation, the birth of his son. Then almost 5 years later, his son, Connor accidentally ran out a floor to ceiling window that was left open after cleaning (his was playing hide and seek). He fell 20+ floors, I believe. Somehow, he remained 4:09 clean and sober. He wrote the song about his son, Conner - the one you mentioned earlier.
Eric Clapton has built a rehab facility in Antiga and raised money through concerts and auctioning off many of his guitars to donate to those less fortunate who can’t afford rehab.
If you listen to the lyrics clearly he says “Dirty Cocaine”. There is also a lyric about “you can’t get it back.” Reverencing, the time you spend high will never come back. You’ll never know what you could have accomplished or what great joy you could have experienced during this time…”but you can’t get it back.” He sings it now as an anti-drug anthem.
He used to be in the group Cream and one of their well known songs is “sunshine of your love”
I've heard this song my entire life and never seen it like you, Hilarious reaction!
You are so fun to listen and watch with. Keep up the good work.
Clapton's prime, in my opinion, was with Cream. Clapton on guitar and some vocals, Jack Bruce on bass and most vocals, Ginger Baker on drums. Check out 'Sunshine of Your Love', 'White Room', and 'Crossroads (live version)'.
Eric Clapton, a legend, and had his own issues with drugs. He kicked a nasty Heroin addiction.
There's no way that you can hear this and not dance. Used to love when bands played this at the clubs!! Great reaction!
Eric had his own substance abuse struggles. "Rock star" - surprise! He went on to establish a rehab center.
My band played this in the clubs back in the 80's. It filled the dance floor every night!
True story, when I was in the Navy in 1981 through 1985 in Norfolk Va this song was banned from being played in clubs on base!
Why not look at Layla by Derek and the dominos first, with Eric on lead guitar and vocals and then contrast it with the live accoustic version on his own. Same song but totally different vibes.
EXCELLENT SONG!!!!
He has a huge catalogue, "Lay down Sally", "Midnite rider" etc.
You are the coolest and most beautiful lady reacting today. Love it xx
Hi Britt, Eric is the greatest guitarist ever! When played back in the day at the clubs everyone was dancing! Check out Wonderful Tonight, Layla and As my Guitar Gently Weeps.
For everyone born after the year 2000, these are musicians, and this is a rock and roll concert.
Eric Clapton is the only 3 time inductee in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. 1st with the Yardbirds his first band. His second is with the band Cream and the last on for his solo work. He is considered one of the top 3 guitarist of all time. He at one time held the Crossroads Guitar Festival for the worlds best guitar players. A true legend still rocking from the 60s. Dig into his music.
It was the eighties and the man knew of which he sang...Great reactions.
Oh girl, you would have fit well in my world...when I was fourty years younger!!! Party hardy but remain true to our one great God!!!
Clapton is rock and soul she don’t lie
I remember seeing, Eric Clapton, on stage with a couple of blues bands.
He sounded good, along with the artists/bands, he performed with.
So much lore with Eric. Going all the way back. As for the topic du jour, he certainly would know.
Try reacting to the group Cream from the 60's. You won't be surprised at any mention of drugs after that. He's not out of character here. Clapton is great, and fits in anywhere he wants to.
George I was surprised to find him and Jeff Beck on a Kate Bush album. Along with keyboardist Gary Brooker from Procol Harum. It was a bluesy number though.
One of the greatest guitarists in the world
When I use to go to the bars dancing. When they played this every time he sang coccinellids we all yelled it.😅
She really don’t lie…😂 Those we’re different times…and they were good. Mom of 4 that hasn’t done a thing since 1993, I was able to be such a great Mom because I got all my crazy out in the 80’s
This song was originally done by JJ Cale. Clapton did his cover of the song. You have to remember when this song came out in the 70's cocaine was the drug of the upper middle class and rich. And the 60's and 70's an era of sex, drugs, and rock n roll.
One of the best just jammin tune! Love and peace to ya Britt This is one song I like the studio version better. I don’t say that very often
Eric is one of the GOATs
62 and remembering this epic jam! Things were moving and shaking!❤
Layla Live! of Wonderful tonight live are fantastic
One of the greatest blues guitarist ever,2 songs
Not a fair example of his work
Tears in heaven
This was Eric favorite drug of choice. He had a different name and band that's to it. Darick and the domino's I like his concert series called crossroads
Love any and all Eric. Keep it comin!😊
In 1965 a graffiti sign in London, that spurred into tagging at shows stating "Clapton Is God" were common after his stint with John Mayall's Bluesbreakers after he left the Yardbirds. Some argue he was best in the band Cream, or with Derek and the Dominoes, or with Delaney and Bonnie. (all groups he was in from 1965-1972) Layla is his signature tune (electric from the 70s or the "Unplugged " show in 1993). Eric is saddled right next to Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Eddie Van Halen, Jimmy Page, and Jeff Beck as most influential players for guitarists. His music, like most of his peers at the time was intentionally eclectic. Going from blues, to rock and jazz to country. Clapton does it all. LAYLA, WONDERFUL TONIGHT, BELL BOTTOM BLUES, WHITE ROOM, WALKING BLUES, and OLD LOVE are some of his highlights.
I was 18 when this came out and it was playing non stop on radio. Peruvian Dancing Powder was everywhere and this song was the anthem of the day. He may have intended it to be anti drug, but that's not how it was received by people.
Good for you reacting to Eric again. Was a great dance song. Believe it or not, this was a song against cocaine. Absolutely great guitar player. He's played with all of the great blues players. And was a great friend of the late great BB King ❤
Never heard this version....incredible
Janis Joplin - Codine
Cream - I feel free, Sunshine of your love, White room (Clapton group 1966-68)
Derek & Dominoes - Layla (Clapton group 1970)
Beatles - While my guitar gently weeps (Beatles with Clapton 1968)
Eric Clapton is the God of British Blues: you should check out his work with Cream, where you’ll be able to hear the bluesy vocals of Jack Bruce as well!
"She don't lie, she don't lie, she don't lie, Cocain"
