Nice version. doesn't move like the original. this is too rushed, too smooth, not dark enough. but it's ok. well, this isn't Cream, afterall. but it's ok.
Yes, you are right, he plays it differently, sorry if I do not spell some words corect (I am from Croatia). Ock, he plays intro from Gm and so on it goes..., verse goes from a diferent key also, it goes from Dm, and then then the chorus goes from C ;) Greetings from Croatia
Does he play this song in a differant way from when he was in Cream? I've got a tab book, The cream of Cream, which looks to be differant from the way he is playing here. Anybody know?
I keep giving post-Cream Clapton another chance, and every time I hear his playing after Cream/Blind Faith, .......sorry all I hear is a bunch of notes thrown together rather than the BRILLIANT phrasing he did in Cream/Blind Faith days.
He WAS a brilliant slowhand blues player with great sense of tone. It's as if he handed that mantle to David Gilmour, after Blind Faith. He's been a huge YAWN ever since
@gitlover10 you should listen to him do some solos to layla man, i think he still has it. sure he isn't on for every song, but i don't think any guitarist ever is...the talent is definitely still there
Yep, that is P. Collins on drums. Gotta pay his bills, singing,playing drums with/for Genesis or side gigs for back-up drumming for another band when Genesis was off tour. This must have been before Phill became lead singer for Genesis.
Simply magnificent--Thank you for posting the lyrics ehmtube--Watching Eric bend that Strat at 4:07 sends chills down my spine--performances like this is why he is known as the GOD of Guitar--Thanks again-L
HELL YAH!!! I <3 Clapton...I was in this huge arugment /w someone over who sung this-he was saying Def Leppard-but I knew betta!! Haha! DOncha <3 being right?
