Great version of a great song. Clapton, man. Farking perfect.

Clapton steals yet another black song? Say it isn't so!

Great video, but a cheap shot. -1

I'm sure Clapton will make many new fans with this already proven hit.

I love watching clapton play. So effortless.

Like Tracy Chapman too. So it's overall pretty cool. +1.

he was probably appalled at her initial rendition of a blues song that he called for an intervention

Concur... the first time I heard this I wanted to buy the CD immediately. Then I forgot.

albo: he was probably appalled at her initial rendition of a blues song that he called for an intervention

Heh heh. Really, isn't this song just a really old-school, traditional blues arrangement? Lots of repetition leaves no doubt that someone dun did me wrong?

Eric Clapton = the Celine Dion of the blues. Would somebody just kill him already... please?

Goonie_Goo_Goo: Eric Clapton = the Celine Dion of the blues. Would somebody just kill him already... please?

Someone is swinging for the fences today!

I ask any of you to go out and play those same 10 licks and create anything as perfect
Didn't clapton play this live with chapman... wait is the headline inferring that she is a guy... I didnt watch the video.
/i know i know don't feed the trolls
//but fark that guy in his bucket like arse

...and my amplifier:

Seriously, he hasn't done anything good since "From the Cradle."

I stopped listening after I wasted my money on the "Pilgrim" piece of crap. I realised it will all be either bad or rehashed blues from then on.

I can go buy blues albums by original blues artists, I don't need to make Clapton richer.

+1. Couldn't agree with you more.

Nah, I used to give 'em away at gigs...

Clapton haters = pretentious farkwits who couldn't choke their way through a decent version of That's A Man.

Archie Godwin : easy to be effortless when you play the same 10 pentatonic licks over and over.

Congratulations on your correct usage of the words "pentatonic" and "lick". However, your musical studies have clearly not progressed to the point of the realization that the technical difficulty of a piece has absolutely no correlation to the quality of the music itself.

Time to hit the books, big guy.

awfulperson: Great video, but a cheap shot. -1

Yeah, sorry about that. I thought it was funny and frankly, she looks pretty good compared to when she started out.

I do a mean rendition of "Fast Car". If you close your eyes you can see Tracy.

Tracy Chapman is great Eric Clapton is...zzzzzzz.

I see your Eric Clapton, and raise you a Rory Gallagher.

Goonie_Goo_Goo: ...and my amplifier:

oh thats right your the nit who couldn't manage to play a real guitar so you play a rustic cigar box. Is that the smell of your unwashed, non-progressing, halfassed musical career, or is it just jealousy. It is so hard to tell those scents apart.

/would rather see Clapton again then some schmuck playing a cigar box
//so would everyone else
///including your mom
////whom I had sex with after a clapton concert

farking cock swallowing nances!

Stop debating over the music and appreciate it. Chrissakes, it's supposed to be entertaining, and this most certainly is.

palladiate's hair: Clapton steals yet another black song? Say it isn't so!

I'm going to dismiss you as a meager troll . . . either that or some ignorant fool with insufficient knowledge of the blues . . .

. . . you're probably the same hater that I've seen accuse Zeppelin of "stealing" black music . . .

. . . music is like any other kind of art (visual, culinary, etc): most everything has already been done once already . . . plagiarism is inavoidable

I like Eric and Tracy and am building a cigarbox guitar or three. My es125t might get lonely but there is room in music for variety and range. That looks like Mob Barley put on some weight. Have a peanut ya troll.

I'm the troll, I stated that I enjoyed this clip and love clapton, and then these twats start talking about how clapton sucks and how he is a rip off artist. He is an amazing musician and artist. I want everyone to enjoy music, I just don't want to listen to them speaking down towards one of my favorite

I will be a troll if need be, because I can

/twatwaffle

Looks like someone has a crush on eric clapton

I still hate the Fark Youtube player. Just link to Youtube you sad farks.

steamingpile: Looks like someone has a crush on eric clapton

I do, he is an amazing guitarist, and that gets me all moist.... well maybe not moist as I lack a vajingo.... ummm never mind

True, EC has put out several crappy albums.
Still plays great live, though. Check out Crossroads 2007, with a band featuring Steve Jordan, Derek Trucks, Doyle Bramhall II, and Chris Stainton

or put on Wheels of Fire,,,,,,

1) Not trolling

2) Crappy song regardless of who is doing it

3) Clapton plays without emotion and therefore does not deserve
the praise he receives

This must be OLD... look at the oldass TNT logo.
/first thing I noticed

TManPsycho: This must be OLD... look at the oldass TNT logo.
/first thing I noticed

I'll betcha it's from 1998 - whaddya say?

/notice anything else?

/Whatever, Clapton kicks ass. He is the man and will continue to be the man.

The pretentiousness is hilarious in this thread.

You are all morans.

Music is a subjective thing. Its not worth arguing over. No matter how many times you say Clapton is a crappy one scale guitarist with no feeling, that will not ever convince his fans to say, "Gee golly, that guy from the internet must be right! I'm going to stop liking Clapton now."

Or vice versa. Anger in FARK music tab should be directed at the RIAA and labels and copy protection. Not at any artist.

/Unless its something I don't like

Clapton might be a great guitarist and songwriter, but he's a despicable performer.

Saw him in concert and all he said was "good evening", followed two hours later with "thank you, and good night". Blah.

Was there any music in between?

You know, 'cause I hear he does some of that.

tatum: Clapton haters = pretentious farkwits who couldn't choke their way through a decent version of That's A Man.

You can be a talented farkwit who hates Clapton. I am assuming all the Clapton haters on here are rock gods who feel music can only be good music if it's intricate and the dumb masses (like myself) enjoy it.
I hate some of Clapton's soft pop pap, but like his blues playing.

/I am but a pleb.

Thank you subby. My day is complete.

Clapton is the best in a long line of great ones.

Someone above said he doesn't play with emotion, yet that is exactly what he DOES bring to the table everytime he plays and that is why I consider him the best.

He can say in one perfectly timed and played note what other pretenders try to say with way too many.
