As we all know, folks, Eric Clapton is the man. Give me the name of his really good songs. I mean, really good songs.

Good guitarring is necessary.

I've already got "Bad Love" and "Layla", both which are superb.
I dunno if my version of Layla is a diff version from the original or something, as it's around 7 mins long, and towards the the 3rd min, goes all piano'y.

Danke schon, really.

There's always one.
And I am so unsurprised that the one was you.

Could get some of his Cream stuff. Sunshine of Your Love, White Room etc. Pretty good stuff. And I think there are quite a few versions of Layla.

Badge by Cream.
Layla of course.
Cocaine.
Sunshine of your love.
The 'August' album later in his career.

'White Room' is one of the greatest songs, ever.

That is the original.
Huge fan then.

Well, for not really exceptional guitar but memorable enough melody, Wonderful Tonight.

Haven't heard any of his music, but he was rated as the 4th best guitarist ever by Rolling Stone magazine.

In comparrison, Jimi Hendrix was 1st, Kirk Hammet 11th, Kurt Cobain 12th, Jack White 18th, Eddie van Halen 70th, Tony Iommi 86th and Angus Young 98th.
