He's got to get better in a little while...

I kinda wished it sounded more like it did on the 12/12/12 concert. Lose the keys and the backing vocalists.

Seems like EC has never been so active - studio and the road - since he announced his retirement a few years ago. Maybe that's the strategy that the Stones should consider.

Maybe , but it's still a cut above One More Shot and Doom and Gloom. When he sings a new song he sounds like he means it - unlike the Stones.

Loved Clapton up till about 1975-- these days I just cant get into him, don't know why--
Last things I liked from him was the Cream reunion discs and the live disc he did with Steve Winwood

my favorites from him have been his 1st solo album, the Delaney & Bonnie album, Derek & Dominoes, the London Howlin Wolf Sessions

I think what put me off the most about him was reading his autobiography-- the way he treated his women and friends just disgusted me--

As a guitarist he's one of the greats, but as a person, not so.

And your feelings about how the Stones have treated their women?

Much of Clapton's negative behaviour could be attributed to drink or drugs. Of course nobody could ever accuse any of the Stones of any such thing.

I think his autobiography was explendid. Finally an honest person !
And he treated people (somewhat) badly (not REALLY badly) when being on the bottle; after getting on his feet again, he's a gentleman. Don't see how one can dislike Clapton because of his autobiography, unless you got some kind of "anti-Clapton agenda", like MunichHilton, and some other IORR wackos have....not that Munich is a wacko.
The autobiography shows humour, self-irony and humbleness. Great book
Not as good as Dylan's autobiography of course, and a bit lower than Mac's, but way better than Keiths or Ronnie Woods

C'mon. I don't think the Stones ever treated Eric's women or friends badly...

What are you talking about? EC has never announced any retirement. He has ALWAYS been active. Even more so in the past. And why should The Stones consider this? They just proved to negative people like you that they are still the best.

Great. We can meet up in London when the Stones play at the 02 for their 60 and Counting shows in 2022. You can buy the first round.....

I doubt if StonesTod invented the line. Sounds like this StonesTod dude was a little full of himself.

He was full of others selfs

One listen was enough.

Generally-speaking, I find it loathesome to be speaking ill of the dead. But, I believe an exception is appropriate here.
