eric has got to be the most selfless musician...ever. Like half of his flashiest stuff is recorded with other artists like Lennon, Dylan, Crow (who kinda sucks, actually), ect.
Don't tell me you're one of those shredder guys where everything has to be fast. I hope you're not, but it doesn't get any better than the guys you see along with EC. Stevie Ray Vaughan, Jeff Beck, Hendrix, Jimmy Page, etc. They're the best there was and is.
@RockRampage74 I am not, but this solo does nothing to my ears. That is my oppinion. And I respect all the guitarists u mentioned . but clapton doesn't do anything for me.
@brandon9966 this solo it´s not one of the best of course when you have shows so often you just can´t be briliant all the time BUT.... there´s just one truth (Clapton has the magic) maybe no all the time but he has the touch........ just take a look at the songs and solos from the 24 night album..... if it doesn´t thrill you............ man you just don´t feel and suffer like a human being (I tell you from the respect)
MindFulOne, you are absolutly right - There is NO ONE who could copy THIS -- especially not THIS really orgasmic unique solo on this gig - ON THAT DAY EC CRUSHED NYC WITH HIS STRAT - FOR ME THE BEST "WHITE ROOM"-VERSION EVER...
I was at this concert, the equivalent of 10th row (it was standing). Just the 1st note of this solo was like "WOW". He gives you everything. There have been many copies of eric but I can spot them every time. You just can't repeat this.

I like other guitarists better..
Clapton's solos have soul and they tell a story but his interpretation isn't great and he is sometimes (when he goes into the low notes) lost inside the melody... kind of faded out..
I've watched the Central Park show on YouTube a couple of months before the evil WMG censored most of Clapton's vids.
I agree with cortese123, Sheryl played a sunburst Les Paul Standard on this Cream-era track. She also strummed a Telecaster when Keith Richards joined her onstage for a Stones' song.
The stage shot shows Eric blasting out a scorching guitar riff with his Fender Crashcaster 3 during a gig circa 2003-2004.
et même si personne ne comprendra ce commentaire qui est en français, je tiens a preciser l'orgasme auditif que ça m'a provoqué

I think was a free concert in central park. Too bad they dont show the footage cuz Sheryl Crow was playing bass and she really looked hot

On the right side of the screen, the 7th video down is the actual video. I think she's just playing rhythm, not bass.
