@itheuser First I'm 51 and was listening to the music of that era. I think that Clapton is pretty good, but he's way over-rated to me. I believe it was Pete Townsend that met up with Clapton and talked about how they were doomed. This new guy named Jimi Hendrix was doing things with a guitar that he couldn't even imagine doing.

Clapton is an interesting one. He made a lot of good songs and a lot of terrible ones. On one hand you have his stuff with Cream and on the other you have Riding with the King and his 2010 album. Most guitar players can play like him after a year of practice. Even by measure of his contemporaries there were better players - Page, Hendrix, Beck, Knopfler, Alman and literally any jazz guitarist. I guess Clapton became Clapton because he was pushing the boundaries of electric guitar and was one of the first music superstars and serves as an inspiration to this day for a lot of guitarists. The man doesn't deserve hate.

Clapton introduced me to the blues. After years of researching, studying, listening... not only to the music but the culture, Clapton is a true bluesman. He took from the originators, made his own, has shared and brought many others into the spotlight. The thing I find most interesting about Clapton is that though he is a killer player, he seems to LOVE playing rhythm and staying in the background from time to time.

i have been playing guitar for 50+ years. I could live another 50 years and never reach Eric's form. Yes he learned from American Blues Masters. You could have the same setup as EC but you may never reach the same heights that he has attained. It is what is between his ears and his fingers and his God given talent. I have admired his work 53+ years. if i had in college during the early 1960s I probably would have heard about him much sooner. Unfortunately during the middle 1960s The Beatles and the early pop Brit groups got airplay on my local radio station. But thanks to KZbin and many other internet sources i can listen to music that was not available in my formative years. Thank you Guitar Pilgrim for breaking down Eric's guitar licks!!

Very few guitarists, (I don't know any), have a song of the stature of "Crossroads" (live cream recording) in their legacy.I have listened to this tune for 50 years and feel the same everytime I hear it. Particularly when Eric plays high up the board on the 2nd solo. Baker is literally galloping. For me it was Clapton who 1st brought me to the blues,and pointed the way back to the foundational artists such as BB King,Albert King,and Freddie King to name a few. I will always be deeply indebted to him.

I really think Eric might be the most terrifying guitar player ever. Unassuming, but at any moment he could just turn it on and smoke the competition. I mean, Jimi Hendrix crossed an entire ocean to meet this man. I can't imagine how scary it must have been in 60's London to be a contemporary of Clapton. Most guys never stood a chance. And never will.

Nice video. You really nail Clapton's use of vibrato. IMHO what makes him so brilliant, and so admired by other guitarists, is the subtlety of his technique. I liked how you mentioned his raunchy playing, which he seems to eschew. One of my favorite raunchy riffs of his is the lead part on "Those Were the Days" off the Wheels of Fire album. He really turns it loose and plays a blistering part. I also really like your discussion of his songwriting skills. He seems to have felt awkward in this regard in his early work, but really blossomed later on. His chord progressions are unique and not the typical progressions you find from other guitarists. Such a talented musician.

Guitar Pilgrim - Eric Clapton combined technique with heart and artistry to become one of a select few who led a herd of white players into Blues scales and the math of the fret board. He had a LOT of help; BB, Albert, Muddy, Johnny & Edgar Winters, Jimi, Steven Stills and the Allmans & the Betts, to name a very few. THEN, folks like you come along; brimming with talent, technique, speed, intuition, intelligence, and education in music theory and a very studied but passionate approach to the type of music so many of us have loved all our lives. I am grateful for your efforts and for those of folks like Ross Campbell, Brett Papa, Tim Pierce, Dave Nassie, Andy at Shut Up & Play, Jamie Harrison, Chelsea Constable, and Anthony from Texas Blues Alley, again to name just a very few. Again, thank you for sharing your phenomenal array of gifts with the world which guide us through our stumbling efforts to become better guitar players.

Man, you are one hellava guitar player and technician. I love it when you explain a certain passage and then play it saying, "it goes something like this". Then go off and play it EXACTLY like it was written to be played. Love the videos, both for the teaching and the explaining. Also, I love watching you play. With passion.

Man, Clapton is kind of underappreciated in some aspects. He influenced so many people, and his tone is unmatched, such a clean player. If you want the raunchiest... Jim McCarty is hard to beat in that department..Leslie west is close. Love all those dudes

thanks for all your Videoclips! What impresses me most all the times, I watch them next to your profound research is your deep respect to the artist. Thanks for lovely Clips and as I am a much older fellow and probably play much longer than you, I can learn so much from you. 🙏❤️🔥

People who hate Clapton don’t know his live performances from 70s, late 80s and 90s... He was as good as in 60s... just search his live performances and you’ll change your mind about Eric. Thank you Guitar Pilgrim. I really love your videos! Keep on rocking man!

Clapton... possibly rock's greatest guitarist. He's influenced countless many. Been around before and after all the others... he's still relevant and he's in the rock and roll hall of fame three times... there are many intangible ways to rate an artist, but the numbers are a great place to start,and the numbers don't lie.

People that don't like Clapton are too young to remember the old days of Cream, Blind Faith, Bluesbreakers, etc. I grew up on that music and it obviously influenced my own development as a guitarist. I never dissected all the songs like you have done, but they're all still hard wired in my head. Thanks for posting!

Anyone who studied Clapton and spent time learning his songs and solos will know he really loved the Pentatonic and almost exclusively used it. So it just goes to show you guy's/gal's,,,, learn that Pentatonic inside out !!! Its all you will need ! Of course you will need practice , practice, and practice too really master it !!! 😁🖒✌
