Eric Clapton Shreds

[999caratofgold]

best expressions on earth XD

[Chipadychuck]

I think it's mixolydian

[TheKyngnom1s]

WTF

[ctyuang]

It sounds like Indian Jazz...

[hyperal]

Still the best shreds.

[roylandyard]

really funny!

[flowerdrop1]

Clapton is God ... this proves it

[BeastBassPlaya]

The Sax solo kicks ass!!

[ThrashMetalForces]

The random keyboards are the best.

[niloc1ful]

This cracks me up like no other video

[TheJonlira]

do you think this is funny stupid ass. why don't you waist your time on something else and leave eric clapton the legend in peace. IDIOT. como puede aver genre tan estupida como tu me choca

[Posion]

@TheJonlira You're a moron

[BlackholedudemanG]

very soulful, very beautiful...

[CCXVIHandsBound]

those bends

[musicalarrows]

One time I showed this video to two of my friends who think that they are the biggest Clapton fans, and think they know everything about music, but I didn't tell them that it was edited. They were freaking out about how great he and his accompanied musicians were in this performance. It just goes to show you that some people think they know what they are talking about, but in reality,dont know dick. Cheers.

[thrillergriller]

Very chromatic, little melody. I really dont know what he is trying to do here.

[roshko007]

ahaha !!! the comments r the best !!!!!!!!!!!!

[Staticbursts]

Holy shit I never realized how good a guitar player Clapton was!

[dylantscott]

Eric at his best

[PenguinRecordings]

My ears....

[rockfreak611]

[donottawaguitar]

[ecsrvjh1]

lol



[ElvisBluntman777]

@nge1301 Of course the way it's been edited is very realistic. Whoever uploaded this is a video editing genius mothafuckaa.

[SwizzyHead]

1:53 Enter Sandman hahaha

[JRCrowley]

@nge1301 I've been utterly amazed for decades at the deep and powerful stupidity in my fellow man. You, on the other hand, are intelligent, and I shake your hand and I would buy you a beer if I could. We have to stick together, kind sir, we who can figure these things out. :) Happy new year!

[XXcowboyfromhell]

It makes it funnier that some people dont get it!

[Hodongji]

This shit rocks!

[mayrdz22]

jajaja pendejo me dio risaa! pero eso no se hace con Eric Clapton -.-

[12Radius]

sounds like a Jerry Garcia& the Dead  jam a little

[kipperfeast]

Excellent at :32!!!

[valkiriadolescente]

que mierda es esto???? malicimo!

[nznaturopath]

hahahahahahahaha, these are great. Thats as good as it actually does get with eric though. lol perfectly done. lol

[darkmarcus428]

this is the best clapton solo by far!! I never thought I'd actually dig something he made!

[otttyb1]

more dark?

[cruzdeguinea]

this is a fake video, eric clapton never do this

[Florisvdkaas]

1:49 enter sandman metallica? :D

[blukper]

This remains one of the BEST! Still has me LMBO after 3 years...never gets old!! One of my favorites parts is 0:36 lol

[pyroteria]

its ok he must have been stoned

[boogiechillen123]

Tabs?

[KarkowskiHimself]

Well, what can one say....it´s true......CLAPTON IS GOD!!!!

[mgman71]

[Lordbator93]

I'm not sure people understand shreds videos

[oussamax]

@Lordbator93 Well , let's laugh alone hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[Kunwaki]

Wow... This was horrible...

[nickcg]

1:34 the sax is fuckin nice hahahhahahhaha

[nickcg]

this is awesome hahahahha

[ropy89]

i really respect Clapton no doubt...but to call this jazz might be a bit over the line.

i mean...some of us used to play such things when we don't really know what to play or we feel like 'spaced out'

[QuantizeMusic]

@ropy89 It's a parody sweetie.

[owner12]

@QuantizeMusic

Parody ? Hahah. No comment.

[QuantizeMusic]

@owner12 Well played sir.

[poeleabois]

@JonathanMichaelSpain thanks there captain obvious :P

[BrimstoneLandscapes]

@JonathanMichaelSpain No shit, Sherlock.

[deepwoods1990]

is he drunk?

[xamundx]

1:30 lol at the saxophone haha laughed my ass off!

[dbzrat]

this so psychedelic :o



[stevesan]

best part is the keyboards haha

[ctyuang]

The category of this video is "Comedy"... :D

[musiconair]

The sustain, listen to it

[musiconair]

From the album "Shit Sandwich"

[VelezBiH]

Good job Eric, i really like your take on Enter Sandman!!

[untroubled]

It IS real.

[flyvid]

When I heard Enter Sandman I burst out laughing. Classic performance by Eric.

[minwav]

Wow, I didn't know Clapton did free-form - rock on Eric!!

[THEFLYINGREDNECK]

this aint shredding...this is HARDER than shredding

[Inderption]

he stole my style!

[OmgUrFace1]

This made me lol, haha

[alrozz]

There's something about a Fender Stratocastor...the Clapton copy that has a distinct sound for Jazz and Blues that it reaps havoc, but only Clapton maintains that mark and as you can see he shows it off tremendously. A most highly respected songwriter, composer and artist, Clapton is the Man!!

[MrJonsteer]

Lost all respect, my dog could play better

[MrRollABall]

they sure are having fun up there.

[soloistchris666]

hahahahahaha



[MUSICNATURE6]

i mean..clapton should stick to blues

[Aleimis]

Virtuoses Gitarrenspiel, aber die Töne hören sich anstrengend an. :)

[z9a11]

1:14 Genius! Clapton is God.

[z9a11]

0:51 I'd shure put that face if I was ever able to play that.

[z9a11]

0:31 that vibrato is my favourite.

[zorac91]

lol at 1:30!! hahaha I love it

[tyler3802]

ballz

[SlyBuffalo]

i was in tears literally the whole video. this is priceless

[ghettoguru420]

He's actually playing Layla

[Vogelfrei777]

OMFG.

The sax.. XD

[LedWhisky69]

1:30 is one of the funniest things that ever happened on planet Earth. 

[goaliedude32]

Did you sit down and watch his hand movements or something? it fits so well, i lawl'd everywhere

[JanekGo]

hahahhaha!! :):)

[quasipseudo1]

Hey!!! Some one ripped off my premier solo!!!!

[6Mephisto666]

Its kinda fun, but i dont like that you do that to Clapton ! :D

[vllebot]

Amazing Work... I was cheated far, at least,... 15 seconds...

[z9a11]

Good job. Very funny.

[rmwhite13691]

It's amazing to me that people can think this is real. Besides the fact that it's hilariously bad, don't you people realize that the instruments aren't playing unless they're shown onscreen?

[drmarconi]

HILARIOUS.



[rihamy2nd]

Hilarious!

[Kingddd333]

sounds like a kid in my jazz

[MaddyAgAnny]

OMG, G-E-N-I-U-S!

[shaft9000]

better than the real thing

[tonysjy]

i dont get whats so good, i guess it's only me

[cireravilob]

@tonysjy because someone recorded themselves playing all of the parts you are hearing and then synced their purposely bad performance to this video of Clapton playing live. In other words the audio is in NO WAY a Clapton performance but someone having fun seeing how terrible (in a funny way) they could make this performance sound. Kind of a music nerd joke. and yes I am a musician/music nerd.

[voemeh]

1:37 sounds like FART!:D

[misterrapidin]

hahahahahaha sounds like slash XD

[jannkkes]

@misterrapidin you suck balls

[misterrapidin]

@jannkkes no no no slash suck balls haha XD

[misterrapidin]

@jannkkes no no no slash suck balls XD

[jannkkes]

@misterrapidin trolling dickhead again...

[Macknsteez]

i love when he starts playing enter sandman at 1:51

[akosiredred]

@antimatter07 you dont ask. :l

haha

[Kegan643]

The SAX is the best part! And the "sandman" lick!

[Kegan643]

The SAX is the best part!

[Finester92]

hvnt ever listen a shitty clapton like this -_- i love clapton, my idol, but here is so bad -_-

[Waikoalaman]

@Finester92 Eh... you do know this video is fake, right? 

[ctyuang]

Cocaine is a hell of drug...

[foobler]

this makes me think not right

[ultimateguitaristazz]

1:51 Enter sandman!! :D :D

[SpectrumRMX]

If anyone else was doing this solo but Clapton, i would have disliked.

[akosiredred]

Fuck this one's dubbed. NOT TRUE

[antimatter07]

@akosiredred you dont say?

[RahulSynysterGates]

this is shredding?! I can play faster than that!

[GoodbyeBieber2]

@RahulSynysterGates eric also could but maybe it doesnt mean athing?

[ninesilverguns]

1:00 LOL

[BassLinezzz]

That is the real saxophone solo!!! Best ever!!

[jjdecani]

Better than any of his real solos.

[toocheaptobuyatripod]

Clapton for beginners XD

[MagicRain505]

The guitar player dubbing this is actually pretty good. I want to hear him in a serious context doing serious music. Lol.

[MrJimrmz]

ajaajajajajajajajajaajaja

[XxHoosierXHoosierxX]

Oh my lord, why is Eric playing so bad and have horrible tone here? He used to be really good but man this is terrible and I am a huge fan. WTF was he drnk or something? :(

[Ignore14]

@XxHoosierXHoosierxX it's a dub it's supposed to be funny. eric would never play that bad lol

[FendyRhodes]

@XxHoosierXHoosierxX can't tell if trolling or just really stupid...

[Kaeralho]

could teach a lot to lil wayne and fred durst

[anonbr666]

I freaking lold my ass off

[MemeNatorius]

that sax is amazing :D

[ofotopedro]

drummer's specially talented.

[Lgw1984]

OMG, this is genius, PUTTING A KIRK HAMMET SOLO IN A CLAPTON VIDEO... hahaha

[Metadeth1997]

@Lgw1984 your an idiot.

[bobykens]

jeez people its a joke, he fast forwarded the old love solo probably mixed with a few others, take it as a joke! on that note, HAHAH nice editing dude

[IlIlIlIlIlIlIllIlIII]

@bobykens You are even more stupid.. He muted the sound and recorded new over it.

[daviegarden]

PISH, sounds like me when I was 12.

[weincke01]

Inadequate technique matching up to a profound lack of taste. YIKES!!!!!

[namtap]

Better than real Clapton.

[jackurch]

jkl;jkl;jkl;jkl;it sucked............

[rickames]

Just read about shredding, interesting. I don't know anything about Clapton. I saw someone playing Jimi Hendrix in a movie & heard his name mentioned. Then word of mouth about a son dying, but i didn't know this guy was that good. If Hendrix wanted to play with him i guess he was very good. Who's the best, Clapton, Hendrix, or Steve Vai. Vai, i only know of him in the cross roads movie. Heard he's great.

[HollyDarkside012]

This is so painfully awful. My opinion of Eric has sunk.. Good Lord.

[redgrapeskins]

@HollyDarkside012 it's a joke-- this is not Clapton-- I hope you are just kidding

[MegaCrasher3000]

Eric, cocaine's a hell of a drug.

[bgoodwinster]

he should have stayed away from drugs

[Fredmelott]

cocaine!

[MrJuno6]

The sax at 1.30 LOL

[MrJuno6]

 So cruel but fucking hilarious,

[liligman]

That was fucking hilarious, nice editing

[112233Rodd332211]

I swear I heard "Enter Sandman" at 1:50. LOL

[steffenhaas]

WATCH THE FIRST EVER GERMAN SHREDS!!!!!

/watch?v=1lUPNzFG4cY

[robs693x]

Clapton was never a good guitarist, he barely gets by on his material that OTHER people wrote for him..

[RodrigoAtilio2]

@robs693x you know nothing, keep listening to music with 0% of expression, of course that being a great musician is playing fast... the day you understand what music is about, you will be sorry for insulting Clapton.

[robs693x]

@RodrigoAtilio2 dude lay off, you don't know who you're talking to when you insult me for not knowing what music is.. I just don't like Clapton very much as a solo artist- Cream was good, but this performance is just random and totally obnoctious

[ultraslowhand]

@robs693x Sorry to disappoint you, but this is not Clapton playing what you're hearing. It's a clever fake, just to prove a point.

[robs693x]

@ultraslowhand okay

[James110a]

@ultraslowhand I take it you haven't heard of "shredding"?

[ultraslowhand]

@James110a Of course, I have heard of shredding. I've been playing for 44 years. But 1) what you are hearing in this video is NOT shredding, and 2) what you are hearing is NOT what Clapton is playing in the video. The soundtrack has been deliberately overdubbed with drivel. It is meant to be funny. Maybe you missed that point...

[James110a]

@ultraslowhand I didn't mean in the traditional sense. "Shredding" is one of internet's new born babies. "The soundtrack has been deliberately overdubbed" -that's shredding. Although this one kind of sucks, there are actually some pretty funny "shreds" out there, works better with a crappy band. You should look up Creed Shreds or Disturbed. Those are pretty good.

[Duendito]

@robs693x did you really think this is for real? The audio has been added in...

[FendyRhodes]

@robs693x Obvious troll is an obvious troll that's obviously trolling.

btw it's spelled "obnoxious" idiot

[RRECRUTAZERO]

eu ouvi um " ENTER SANDMAN" aee do metallica !!

[ronesforspam]

В чём юмор-то? Он действительно так играет

[DonZabu]

It takes a true wizard at the guitar to play it this badly.

Hats off to St. Sanders, everybody.

[JohnKurtJim]

if he tried to sound like jimi in woodstock improvisation, he failed

[Telecaster70]

wow..it's like lip syncing the instruments...GREAT...or, as we Germans would say DER HAMMER ;-)

[eddieboy1234]

omg soo funny

[TheMusicBucket]

That saxophone solo brought tears to my eyes.

[GodlessPhilosopher]

That's some avant-garde shit right there.

[Praclik22]

@GodlessPhilosopher :D love this one man

[TommmiB]

haha, is it the beginning of enter sandman by metallica at 1:51?

[gitarbest]

@TommmiB Yeah it is !!

[x5darkangelx5]

.............

[radtone]

Sounds like a Saturday afternoon at Guitar Center...LMFAO!

[TSSYF]

@radtone Best. comment. EVER!! LMAO!

[MrDarinWarren]

Clapton is actually better than this. Slightly.  :)

[Cbluesrocker]

Eric Clapton is possibly THE MOST overrated guitar player of all time.. sorry Clapton fans... I just don't get it.

[TheHawksTalon]

@Cbluesrocker no he is the best

[BackToTheBlues]

@Cbluesrocker Whether Clapton's good or not is irrelevant here, try searching for other artist's 'shreds' and you'll see what's going on ;o)

[ZachCanPlay]

@Cbluesrocker its fake retard

[Cbluesrocker]

@ZachCanPlay I know that! I'm just saying. Even when it actually is Eric, he's still one of the most overrated guitar players of all time.
