oh my but this is SWEET

oh man can he PLAY

ronnie earl

(only one man could perhaps have bested him. that man is now gone from this earth. i've mentioned him before and i sure will mention him again. sit tight, k?)

why do people climb all over clapton when earl just jams rings around him? i don't get it

i think i rag on clapton so very much because of the horrid experience i had back in the day. i went to the hartford civic center to see clapton. his backup singers had gold lame on AND they were doing choreography. i would have forgiven that if i had gone to see madonna or cher or the like. BUT CLAPTON? naw, i NEVER forgave him for it (and i STILL think he's the most highly overrated guitarist out there)
