    Don't get me wrong, I love Clapton on a Strat, but you gotta admit the tones he had with the Beano Burst, the Cream 335, and The Fool were to die for..

      I saw CREAM LIVE twice, their Wheels of Fire tour. Both times Clapton was playing his single pickup Firebird, thru multiple Marshall Stacks of course. He was unbelievable. They were THE SUPER GROUP at that point. JMHO......

    I’m a bit late seeing this one but just had to say how good I think it is. You are so fully attuned to Clapton, so aware that a musician’s cultural context is part of their style, that the rhythms, phrasing and melodic development all come out right. The bit about navigating the specific boxes and areas of the neck at the end was superb. If you fancied doing a video on EC’s trademark licks I think lots of your viewers would be grateful for it. Many thanks.

    The best vid for explanation regarding the Crossroads solo transitioning back and forth between major and minor scales. Been searching for just such a clear explanation of Clapton's soloing over the chords. Many, many, thanks. PS super guitar skills that you displayed!

    This is the sound … nice playing indeed. I think everyone who really likes Clapton would agree that he sounded totally on fire and at his best when he played Gibsons … His Beano Burst, his ES335, his Firebird and of course his SG. Thanks for such a wonderful post.
