Eric Clapton is an English rock & blues guitarist, singer & songwriter. He is considered one of the best guitarists in the world & has had a great career in music. He was with many great groups before going solo. The Yardbirds, John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers, Cream, Blind Faith, Derek & The Dominos. He has had a lot of solo hits such as "Layla", "I Shot The Sheriff", "Tears In Heaven", "Change The World", "My Father's Eyes", "Wonderful Tonight", "Cocaine", "Lay Down Sally" & many more.

You have reacted to "I shot the Sheriff" by Eric. You just watched a living legend, he is one of the top 5 guitarist of all time. He played with SRV the night that he died, he took a later ride out. You should hear his songs "Cocaine", "Layla" (both the original and acoustic versions.) This is a very deep rabbit hole that includes the groups "Cream" and "Derrick and the Dominoes". You should google him, he has had a lot of tragedies in his life. By the way, this song and "Layla" was for his now X-Wife (the x-wife of Beatle George Harrison) he and George remained friends until George passed.

This will be played at my celebration of life and i am going to be cremated and ashes spread at Graceland in the back of the property and yes this has been approved since I was Elvis friend and he was the brother i never had. love to you both from the one and only Memphis Tn.

Eric Clapton is one of the greatest guitar players in music history. The man is a living legend. He played for the group "Cream" back in the 60's. He has freelanced with various artist and groups throughout his career. His song "Tears in Heaven." Was a dedication to his late 4-year-old son Conor who fell out of a high rise building in New York City. It was one of the saddest days in New York City. Everyone mourn the death of his son. You cannot go wrong going down the rabbit hole that is the great guitar legend Eric Clapton.

Eric wrote this song, as well as the song ‘Layla’ for Patti Boyd who was the wife of his good friend George Harrison (of the Beatles). She refused to leave George for Eric, but when they ultimately divorced, Patti and Eric fell in love and were married for around 10 years. He and George stayed friends and were close until the time of George’s death.

When the one who holds your heart tells you YOU LOOK WONDERFUL TONIGHT, you take your hands and place them on the sides of his/her face, look into their eyes, and tell him or her how much their love means to you. I lost my love this last May 24th. He passed away while sitting his chair, watching youtube videos of his favourite old rock songs. After the coroner took him away, I sat in his chair, the energy he left behind wrapped around me like a warm blanket, and as i cried i kept asking myself if he knew juat how much i loved him. Say it clearly and say it often, so that if they leave you, without warning, you wont have to ask that question. Thanks guys. This was one of our favourite songs. I miss you Rob.😢💔❤️🩹🩷

In 1968, George Harrison of The Beatles wrote the beautiful love song, Something, for his then-wife, Patti Boyd Harrison & it became a huge hit for the group. By 1970, George's best friend, Eric Clapton, had fallen in love with Patti, & as part of Derek & The Dominoes when he wrote the 60s classic, Layla. Originally written as a ballad, with lyrics describing his unrequited love for Boyd, the song became a "rocker" when, according to Clapton, his then-bandmate, Duane Allman composed the song's signature riff. In 1977, George & Patti divorced & she turned to Eric. It was soon after that when he wrote Wonderful Tonight for her. They married in '79, divorced in '89. Surprisingly, George was not bitter at all by what had happened & the 2 men remained close friends for the rest of George's life. BTW - Eric Clapton is among the GOATs of guitarists. Jumping into this rabbit hole will keep you very busy & highly entertained for weeks on end. He started with The Yardbirds (circa '63), then John Mayall & The Bluebreakers, Cream, Blind Faith, & Derek & The Dominoes, then on his own from 1970 on, & still. Discover all he has to offer. You'll be so glad you did.
