Hello dudes of real music! Enter in my chanel if you have time, see my videos and my favoritoes, ... My videos are almost just improvisation, but I will make some cover of the best type and original songs of me soon:D thank you all for your time and thanks for the music.
i appreciate clapton paying ribute to the old blues singers but it makes a lil difference when one has lived it,elmore james i think owns this but clapton can play a guitar!!
His voice is soooo rich in this - his voice blew me away when I first saw him in the late '80's. It's mellower now, but his guitar has just got hotter, with ever more authority.
@satansprick13 He actually helped Bob Marley to become amous with his version of I Shot the Seriff, how can you call him racist ? And if he fails at blues ( as you calld Black music ) why did Muddy Waters and BB King called him many times to play with them ? Go do some research before posting dumb yhings on YouTube.
do you know that clapton refused to play on a festival cos there was a black band also goin to play:bo marley and the wailers. this bastard now kisses asses in buckinham palace....he is zhe most boring guitarplayer.and he ripped and tried to learn the blues from BLACK people.but failed miserably.helter skelter is knockin on your door ......huh.no more nazi white!!!!! booyakasha
I was at this gig for the mastercard princes trust, dylan was a little lousy, I missed alanis who played first, quadrophenia not my cup of tea, but eric was f*****g brilliant, especially th solo on Old Love
@xQueenxJanex I love much too much the "Black guitar players" as well ......but, come on,there are not felling in this mucic? White guitar players do not know play a blues? This is racism too....Albert king is god, Elmore james is god and clqapton is god too!

@TheBartsbart thumbs up....although note that the original "it hurts me too" was written and recorded 25 years before Elmores recording,in I think 1932 by Tampa Red in Chicago,on the Bluebird label. Under the title, 'When things go wrong'...not sure why they credit Elmore James on this.
I like Keb Mo's version better! The whiteman can never pick up the real essence of The Blues because ITS A BLACK THING with all the years of slavery and suffering embedded!
@codyandkassi Don't fucking insult me with your caucasianal bullshit fella! Us Blacks have endured over some 600 years of fucking suffering under white supremacy and counting! you motherfuckers aint never had to suffer like The Blackman and Woman had to fucking suffer so you can kiss my Black ass.
@BlackFreemasonsSuck I see where you're coming from and it's an incredibly hateful place.
I'm a woman and we have long suffered since the beginning of time and continue so. But somehow you think your suffering trumps all others. The "real essence" of this music -all music- is HEART and SOUL ....... which you are seriously devoid of.
@codyandkassi You a damn lie! The Whiteman mistreated women not us Blackmen. In Egypt women were treated as Goddesses equal to men or better! and my wife gets anything she wants ! There is no justice for us Black people!
@BlackFreemasonsSuck You can't possibly be serious?? Do you even read the newspaper? Look up female genital cutting. Wikipedia has a whole series dedicated to violence against women if you're interested in learning something besides spouting off bullshit.
Life is way too short and precious to be arguing with such a resentful, arrogant, misguided FOOL. The Blues is not this sacred thing to be enjoyed by blacks only -as if they are the only ones who feel pain. We all feel it. Black & White.
@codyandkassi Bitch Please!` look at castration, look at circumcision! Like I told yo dumb ass before that belittleing women is a European concept because us Blacks are known to hold our Black women to the highest esteem but since we intergrated with these white motherfuckers we have learned they're satanic ways and you women have done the same with all this strange ass euro weave shit and Feminist Movement shit that only seperates us some more! and in parting! FUCK YOU YOU FUCKING BITCH!
@codyandkassi Ive been called worse shit that that by lesbian dyke bitches like you. You got a fucking problem with men then what the fuck you wanna do you fucking dike? you aint gon do shit but withdraw your stanking ass pussy from fucking a nigga like you punishing a motherfucker or something bitch! FUCK YOUR PUSSY AND YOU TAINTED FUCKING WOMB BITCH! NOW YOU DONE MADE ME MAD BECAUSE YOU BITCHES WANNA TALK SHIT BUT WHEN YOU LOOKING AT GETTING YO ASS WHOOPED YOU WANNA SAY DONT HIT A WOMAN. BUTCH
@BlackFreemasonsSuck Aw, so THIS is how you black men treat women? I hope you don't call your wife those things when you fail at communicating like an adult. Good luck in life. You're going to need it with an attitude like yours.
@codyandkassi YOU WHITE BITCHES ARE THE NASTIEST MOST ATROCIOUS BITCHES KNOWN TO MANKIND! I KNOW YOU DONE FUCKED GUNNAR THE FAMILY DOG AND LET HIM EAT YOUR PUSSY YOU NASTY ASS PALE NEANDERHALIC CAVE BITCH! I TREAT ANY BIG MOUTH BITCH LIKE A MAN WHEN HER BIG MOUTHED ASS GET OUTTA LINE TALKING TO A MAN WHOM SHE KNOW CAN WHOOP HER MOTHERFUCKING ASS BUT YOU CONTINUE TO TALK SHIT! THATS WHY YOU WHITE BITCHES ALWAYS END UP BELLY UP IN A RIVER SOME FUCKING WHERE! YOR FUCKING MOUTH! ILL KNOCK YOU IN IT
@BlackFreemasonsSuck Stop. You're embarrassing yourself. Face it, you got OWNED by this white woman. No pun intended. And I didn't have to resort to violent threats and name calling. Your anger makes you pathetic and weak. Do everyone a favour and stay in what ever Shit Hole you're from, sparing the world of your racist, misogynist propaganda. Try listening to some Clapton. Maybe that'll calm you down.
@codyandkassi You can't own me bitch! Them African Slave Trade Days are over with you white stupid bitch! Your weak ass can hardly own your dog Gunnar so you definatley cant own me because Id bite your bitchass ever harder than fucking mutt Gunnar ever could! You white cave bitches are self destructing as we speak! you motherfuckers dying off like hot cakes at IHOP and you have a 0% Birth Rate! You can never own me bitch remember that! I don't want your stanking ass mutant neandrtal pussy!
@BlackFreemasonsSuck Metaphorically speaking, the white man DOES own you. As long as you feel contempt, hatred and resentment you'll never be free. I suppose that's too deep of a concept for someone like you to understand.
I'm not interested in your animosity-filled rebuttal. You've had nothing worthwhile to say. BLOCKED.
@codyandkassi Fuck a Metaphor, If I wanted to be bombarded with metaphors Id read The so called Holy Bible written by Shakespeare and The Nicean Council in 325AD. I suppose this reality is too honest and forthright for a Lying, Decietful neanderhalic pale caucus cave devil like yourself to even attempt to comprehend.
@codyandkassi I dont give a fuck about you nasty ass white bitches! if it wasnt for casual sex , deepthroating and reproduction you white bitches would be worthless.
@codyandkassi I knock arrogant big mouth confuced dyke bitches dead in they fucking mouth hard as I can like you a fucking man because you talk too motherfucking much! YOU WANNA PUNK ME BITCH? WELL YOU WILL GET FUCKING FUCKED UP IF YOU WANNA TAKE ON A MANS PERSONA. YOU OPEN YOUR FUCKING MOUTH TO TALK TOUGH TALK TO ME, BE LOOKING FOR A ASSWHOOPING COMING YOUR WAY BECAUSE IM AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY ASSKICKER. i FUCK UP WHITEMEN, WHITE WOMEN, AND SHIT TALKING ASS BLACK BITCHES LIKE YOUR BITCHASS.
@leycyp Oh c'mon, don't give me that. As outstanding as E.C. is, he isn't the most fiery bluesman in history. Certainly not up to the ranks of Peter Green or John Mayall.
@OssMan25 You're generalizing what I said. I'm only talking about Clapton. When it comes to blues, I just don't believe he has "it". I don't much buy Jimi Hendrix or Rory Gallagher as bluesmen either. All great musicians though..
@abuelantastico that's a cop out. You don't have to be black to be blue. Is Yo Yo Ma not a real classic cello virtuoso just because he isn't a descendant of 18th century masters? You're too narrow minded. The notes are out there for anyone to use. How you put it together is what makes it yours, not your genealogy.
you dont have to play fast fingers in guitar playing,.because fast finger will take you only hours of practice,.but the feeling of blues music will take you years and even decades to get thru it..blues is easy to play but it is hard to feel..thats why eric clapton is i think one of the best guitarist in the world.
@gocubsgo2217 I think he has an fantastic voice for the blues. That's why I have trouble listening to John Mayer,, his whispy, pop like voice just makes me cringe.
The Hyde Park Show is great! A really interesting selection of material. Personal highlights for me: all the tunes off From the Cradle and a wicked version of I Shot the Sheriff. The closing with Holy Mother is also nice.
stajao sam sam, cekao sam voz, sva moja ljubav, u meni je skroz, kad krene lose, kad vreme svene, boli i mene. pruzila si ruku, rekla si mi zbogom, svi moji vagoni, sad idu za tobom. kad oci se sklope , i muzika krene, boli i mene. zivot me nije nikada mazio, zivot me nije nikada pazio, prolaze parovi, odlaze zene, boli i mene, pruzila si ruku, rekla si mi zbogom, svi moji vagoni, sad idu za tobom. kad oci se sklope , i muzika krene, boli i mene.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
The original Broonzy is better. Clapton is just old, tired, and taking advantage of his fans. If you listen to the originals his are just washed out whited up cheap copies. Like the original rock and roll movement was ripped off from the original black artists who suffered for their music.
I used to love Clapton until I got old enough to see what a wash he is. All doubts aside he can play when he tries though.
i'm not saying he did a bad cover. hell his instrumental may even be better, but it seems like he took the feeling, the soul, the pain out of the song that elmore put in through vocals and other instrumental variations
I played harmonica with Rory a few times when he arrived from Ireland, with the original "Taste". About 1967.He was a true gentleman and a great musician. His manager then was called Mr Kennedy, who got him into the "big time". He then was signed by Robert Stigwood. The original "Taste" bass player and drummer moved on, and were replaced with guys from another Irish band, "Cheese"... That was the "Taste" that got famous.
Rory was probably the best blues guitarist i have ever played with.
@broonpie I have been a Rory Gallagher fan since I was 13 or 14 , I am 54 now... Damn shames He is not with us anymore. He is one of the greats and I am sure He had A lot of Hot Pickn in Him.
This should BE my homework. :/

The Hyde Park Show is great! A really interesting selection of material. Personal highlights for me: all the tunes off From the Cradle and a wicked version of I Shot the Sheriff. The closing with Holy Mother is also nice.

I think he's the only white man who can say that he knows what means to "have the blues". He didn't have an easy life at all.

This comment has received too many negative votes show
The original Broonzy is better. Clapton is just old, tired, and taking advantage of his fans. If you listen to the originals his are just washed out whited up cheap copies. Like the original rock and roll movement was ripped off from the original black artists who suffered for their music.
I used to love Clapton until I got old enough to see what a wash he is. All doubts aside he can play when he tries though.

Anyone know what tuning Eric is in here?
JoyfulNoise1989 1 year ago
i'm pretty sure open D.
the chords are D G A
im guessing with a few changes ( the bass changes sometimes, add a 7 here and there... BLUES !)

i'm not saying he did a bad cover. hell his instrumental may even be better, but it seems like he took the feeling, the soul, the pain out of the song that elmore put in through vocals and other instrumental variations

I played harmonica with Rory a few times when he arrived from Ireland, with the original "Taste". About 1967.He was a true gentleman and a great musician. His manager then was called Mr Kennedy, who got him into the "big time". He then was signed by Robert Stigwood. The original "Taste" bass player and drummer moved on, and were replaced with guys from another Irish band, "Cheese"... That was the "Taste" that got famous.
Rory was probably the best blues guitarist i have ever played with.

@broonpie I have been a Rory Gallagher fan since I was 13 or 14 , I am 54 now... Damn shames He is not with us anymore. He is one of the greats and I am sure He had A lot of Hot Pickn in Him.
