Reply #16: Exact example of what I don't like about most British music... [View All]

[Bennyboy]

He cops the blues, an American art form. And unlike most of his US contemporaries, (and all of his British) he is very British (as in stingy, tight, too rehearsed etc...) with his music. At one time Clapton was great (Derek and the Dominoes) but that was mostly due to the American blues format and American musicians he was playing with. But for the most part he never really jams out. At least not since the mid seventies.


Great musicians try new things and explore new universes... and I never thought EC did that after D and the D's...
