  1. Afgelopen vrijdag mijn grote gitaarheld, de inmiddels 81-jarige Eric Clapton weer live aan het werk gezien in Amsterdam. Van ronkende gitaren tot een prachtige, verstilde, akoestische set op een avond met ook een paar verrassende nummers: ‘If I Don’t Be There By Morning’ en ‘Golden Ring’, allebei van het album ‘Backless’ uit 1978. Uiteraard ontbraken ook de klassiekers niet. Kortom, een topavond!

  2. Me and Mr. Johnson

    Slowhand's tribute to Delta blues legend Robert Johnson is released on March 23, 2004. The 14 covers are a "labor of love" and a long-held goal for Clapton to pay homage to one of his main musical influences. The band is a tad legendary, too -- Billy Preston on keyboards, Steve Gadd on drums, Nathan East on bass and Doyle Bramhall II. #ericclapton #slowhand #meandmrjohnson #blues #deltablues #robertjohnson #billypreston #stevegadd #music #musicsky

  3. Pilgrim

    Slowhand releases his 13th on March 10, 1998 ... his first collection of entirely new studio material since 1989's Journeyman. It includes "My Father's Eyes" -- a poignant song about the father Clapton never met. It became a hit and won him a Grammy. #ericclapton #slowhand #pilgrim #90smusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky #90srock #rock #rockmusic #bluesrock

  14. There was a show on HBO years ago (I watched it decades ago!) called “Not Necessarily The News” anchored by comedian Rich Hall that used the intro for this Clapton tune as its theme.
