I know he played on the last record but I don't wake up in the middle of the night thinking of Eric Clapton.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I can never make up my mind if I'm happy being a flute player, or if I wish I were Eric Clapton.
It's definitely true that Stevie Ray Vaughan is one of my all-time favorite guitarists.
I suppose when I started playing guitar, it was the means to an end. I never thought of myself as a fully fledged guitar instrumentalist. And my early excursions on the electric guitar were curtailed when Eric Clapton came on the scene, and I decided I was never going to be in the same arena as a Clapton or a Peter Green.
I thought Jimi Hendrix... was just phenomenal.
First concert I ever went to was a group called The Yardbirds. Eric Clapton is the lead guitarist.
I've never been much of a guitarist. I mean, I've played forever, but I was always more of a rhythm kind of guy. I don't read music.
I don't see myself as such an important guitarist.
Eric Clapton is my dream guitarist.
I just wonder where I was when the talent was being given out, like George Benson, Kenny Burrell, Eric Clapton... oh, there's many more! I wouldn't want to be like them, you understand, but I'd like to be equal, if you will.
Clapton asked my brother to play on his record. I thought that was the most wonderful thing in the world.
