    For dumbasses who like to downplay his influence and abilities, here are some GREAT songs written or co-written by Eric Clapton. The man has TALENT. Listen to some of these songs, if you're not familiar with them. Haters are just making themselves look like DUMBASSES. He's got an outstanding singing voice also... unlike a lot of other great guitar players. (Especially before he was in his SEVENTIES, as he is now.) He doesn't have to be "the best guitarist in the world" to have been a HUGE influence, who's created a large volume of awesome songs in a variety of different styles, besides just blues-rock. He also pioneered the use of the Wah pedal (along with Hendrix), and had a LOT to do with Bob Marley becoming popular in the US and the rest of the world by doing a powerful cover of his song, "I Shot the Sheriff"... not to mention helping to raise LOTS of money for the Concerts for Bangladesh, and many other causes. Clapton wrote lot more songs than what I'm listing here, but these re some of his best. How many other "Guitar Gods" wrote and sang (well) as many excellent songs with great melodies, lyrics, guitar parts and solos etc, as Eric Clapton did?? Don't wrack your brains boys, you won't find any.

    The "rave ups", IMHO were because no one in the group could write good songs and so long instrumentals were used to compensate for this lack. Many groups have done this sort of thing (especially the Grateful Dead and Phish).

Talk about a historic moment in time for the guitar playing community! Think about the significance of Clapton wearing a Pink Floyd tshirt for an album and tour. Now go pick up your mind that was just blown. Then go listen to Clapton doing the Money / C Numb / ABITW P2 / Have a Cigar etc solos. You're welcome!

      Furthermore, the second half of the song, the piano part, was actually co-written by drummer Jim Gordon with then-girlfriend Rita Coolidge. This same melody was used in a song recorded by Coolidge's sister, Priscilla, called "Time." Whereas "Layla" did not credit Coolidge, "Time" did not credit Gordon.

      You ignorant jackass, the man has TALENT, and he honors black blues players. Check out some of these songs (written or co-written by him) below if you're not familiar with them (not all blues, btw). And stop being a "Social Justice" dipshit, when you don't know WTF you're talking about. Haters are just making themselves look like DUMBASSES.
      Eric Clapton had more suffering in his life than your spoiled, entitled, privileged little Internet Warrior ass can conceive of... And STILL he overcame it, and is famous and loved around the world for his music, and YOU'RE NOT. I wonder why. LOL.
      Not only has he written and performed a lot of outstanding songs, he's got an outstanding singing voice also... unlike a lot of other great guitar players. Especially before he was in his SEVENTIES, as he is now. As for your ridiculous attempt to cast Eric Clapton as "racist", you have a little dick, and you need attention, because your mother ignored you apparently, and your parents (if you had any) raised you to be an asshole. Grow the fuck up and stop saying stupid shit... or you'll keep winning stupid prizes. LOL.
