And what is it with everybody and Eric Clapton? Is it cos of his Enoch Powell foot in mouth thing? Cos Crossroads on Live Cream is fucking amazing.


Same view here.

I grew up with my older brother and sister's records - I love all the Cream stuff, although I really *can't stand anything* Clapton did later on.

Yes, he did make a very drunken comment about immigration, but he's hardly a 'racist', he's championed black music early on and played with black musicians throughout his life.

I remember reading threads somewhere on this forum, where people would gloat about the tragic death of his little son - now that is REALLY sick.

Knopfler ? Telegraph Road has always been a guilty pleasure of mine.

Vai, Satriani have always left me a bit cold.

Carlos Santana has always bored me a bit.

Malmsteen's a nob. Obviously.

The bloke out of Coldplay.

And the worst guitar solo..ever...has to be Billy Duffy's effort on Born To Be Wild off Electric (though I rate him a player).

Simplicity is fine but redundancy in the Edge's case isn't...
