Can't hear this without visualizing the Dodo from the classic animated Alice in Wonderland - "And I never ever ever do a thing about the weather for the weather never ever does a thing for me!" Love this tune. Hard to imagine anyone living plays it better.
@kralle7611 Here´s a quote from an Amarok interview in 1991: . "Who? You've got Eric Clapton - he's Eric Clapton isn't he, he's got his style but he's by no means a good guitar player. Just look at some of your Spanish flamenco guitarists, they're great players. Some of the heavy metal players can play very fast scales, but they've just become parodies of themselves - though I'd rather listen to them than Eric Clapton to be honest. He just plays the same blues stuff up and down the scale"
I think you might possibly be comparing the really best Granny Smiths' with the really best Cox Orange Pippins. Technically both equally excellent apples, slightly different pallettes.
What brand of potato was used to record this?

@jesper79 He's jealous because Clapton can sing and he can't

@kralle7611 Oldfield has in several cases said that he´s not impressed by Clapton. Sorry.
