One of my favorite performances. *No headbangers allowed*

This is one of my favorite performances by Clapton.  He took a great song and made it unbelievable. He redefines the word "shred".

The man is in a league of his own.  Some things get better with age, and Clapton is "all that".

He is a great player , but for my money the man has no soul to his feeling. I never got into him for that reason, I just can't feel him. Great player, but I find him unmoving

Very cool.  Yes, Clapton is one of the greats.  Thanks for sharing.

Moving enough for you?

Dear Hookem,

The only taste you have is in your mouth.

Your friend,

Dear Michael,

I reject your reality and substitute my own.

Suck.

[Tin]

Suck.

  Saw that coming.

I get more out of a 5minute Buddy Guy or BB King record than Clapton's whole catalog. He is more than proficient but he is too English to get the Blues right ;D

Perfect analogy.  Blue riffs yes,  blues soul,  I can't hear it.  I agree with the whole englishman thing.  They are great players and LOVE American blues.  They just don't quite get the feel down.  When I listen to the old blues guys,  it's just different.  Having said that,  SRV is in a class all by himself.  Technically great and soul / feeling coming out of every pore.

Muddy, this should make both of us happy.
