Influences of Eric Clapton
I've been trying find cds of the original recordings of all of the blues songs the Eric Clapton has performed over the years. It's been a lot of fun going back and listening to those artist who influenced Eric Clapton through the years. In some cases it's difficult to tell whose version EC may have been influenced by. I'd recommend obtaining some of these cds for anyone who is a true fan of EC and the blues.
