What do you guys think of Eric's new album...I still have to listen some more, but I so far I find it cool...sort of Honky-Tonk Blues if that is a good description.

I'm loving it. I've been playing it vrot ever since I got it. I still think Clapton must be THE guitarist of our time. There can be long debates over who's the better skilled guitarist but this guy's diversity, influence and musical longevity surely must rank right up there. This is a guy who's played guitar for the Beatles in the 60's and rolls out masterpieces in the 2010's. We're talking half a century of guitar magic!

One of my favourites too. Loved his collaboration album with BB King and the one with JJ Cale. I haven't go the latest one yet, but I heard the sample clips on his site and I think I'll be adding it to my collection.

Really loved his Autumn Leaves cover.. vocals and his signature riffs so well blended with the chord changes and mood of the song, wow!
