@fingerpicker97 and it says on the sheet music written by Mason Williams.

@asafav Mate, you're the idiot. The song is originally by Mason Williams, then covered by Eric Clapton, then covered by Tommy Emmanuel. I know this for a fact, because I have the sheet music for the Mason version and my classical guitar teacher is teaching it to me.

"classical gas guitar-Eric Clapton"??
That's not Clapton.
It's you, isn't it? whoever the fuck you are..

Look, this *is* Clapton. He did this recording as a payback to Mason Williams who stole all of his riffs and then paid a studio engineer to sneak in a replacement of Clapton's lead guitar with his own on the original Wheels of Fire track of Crossroads.

@asafav Mason Williams, 1968. This version is from his 1970 album "Handmade".

@pogopvp Eric Clapton has never recorded this song. You're a moron.

I don't want to be a "know it all" but Clapton has never covered this tune. Lots of artists have but not Clapton. Go to Mason William's Classical Gas website and FAQ's He explains why some think Clapton recorded a version. Then came file sharing. Napster, Kazaa, Kids who shared it wrote in the artist as Clapton, and so millons of kids downloaded it with Clapton written in as the arist. Williams has released it 38 times, with and without orchestras. Clapton never has.

you are fantastic!!

Such an amazing instrumental, and very well played man! Btw, Mason Williams wrote it, TE made his own unique cover and Clapton was never known to actually have recorded it. Make what you want with that, but let me know if you ever actually find a video of Clapton playing it. I'd actually be glad to see Clapton cover that awesome wong. Check out my version (on my channel) if you have time! Cheers.
