Eric's homage to his blues guitar mentor Freddie King. It's one of Freddie's signature songs and a classic blues lament about unrequited love. Excellent pick Miss B! Thanks Harri.

This was from Eric's 1975 album, E C Was Here, which was the first of several recordings Eric did of this song. Originally released in 1960, by Freddy King, Eric does justice to this beast of the Blues. His guitar work is outstanding and permeates every bit of your soul. I think he is talking about Patti in this song, George Harrison's wife, which may make the emotion even stronger. Great reaction Harri. Thanks Harri and Miss Blondie. 👏👏 Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦

A lot of people think he wrote this about Patti Boyd (The wife he shared with Harrison), but it's not his song. But I do wonder if that's why he chose to record it.

Blues is top and the root of all pop music. "The Bristish blues invasion of the 60's put the afro-american bluesmen on the map. Otherwise, we would be still in misery." -- B.B. King, his autobiography. "Blues can catch any soul. It's about failed love, bad love, lost love, etc." -- Son House

I read an interview where Eric said he doesn't use his pinky finger during solo's, because it's too uncomfortable twisting his wrist around. Using only 3 fingers gives more strength and dexterity when working the frets. 🎼

Harri - You really should check out my favorite version of this great song: kzbin.info/www/bejne/l2iWfaufYtRmbpo Two guitar gods, Eric Clapton and Duane Allman, trading amazing guitar play throughout this track from their 1970 album (Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs). Eric recorded this song maybe ten different times over the course of his career - beginning with a live version recorded in 1965. The song was written by Billy Myles - and Freddie King first recorded it in 1960.

But what? A typical assanine comment. Keep bringing up a stupid drunken comment he made close to 50 years ago, that he apologized for. Funny, you don't mention that BB, Buddy, Nathan East, Willie Weeks, Katie Kissoon, Sharon Johns, Robert Randolph, Gary Clark Jr, Greg Phillagenes, Sonny Emory and many others say about the respect abd friendship they have with EC. See what they all have in common. BB in a toast on stage near the end of his life said I have traveled around the world and met Kings and Queens, but i never met a finer man then my friend Eric Clapton. He has done so many things for me and many of us to help out throughout the years. May i say, i hope that i live forever, but you live forever and a day, so i can say that while we were alive we were friends! I think i will take BBs opinion of EC over a dope who knows nothing about him, like you! How about looking into what he does for the LOCALS in Antigua. He built, funded and supports a Crossroads addiction rehabilitation center, that he allows locals to use AT NO CHARGE! He funds and puts on concerts and guitar auctions to support it. I can't stand the old BS that cluless people like you keep rehashing. When you have done a millimeter of what he has to help and support charities and people of minorities and less fortunate means, THEN TALK!.
