"It's very tough deciding whether it's Layla or Dark Side of the Moon that's the greatest album ever. Layla obviously comes top of the Clapton list though."
"No other album sonds like this. Steve Winwood's keyboards and soaring vocals over Clapton's guitar give it a uniquely ecclesiastical feel. Some great piano and guitar workouts here too."
"The most fun album on the list and one that never fails to brighten up my day. Worth noting the presence of future Dominos Radle, Whitlock and Gordon in the backing group."
"Unlike the BB collaboration (below) this is a case of the whole exceeding the sum of the parts. Brilliant interplay between two legends, Hey Mr Fantasy is to die for!"
"A perfect balance between famous guitar licks and semi serious drug addled whimsy that hits the spot. A classic. That's seven different artists on the list already."
"What would Pink Floyd be like with Clapton in place of Gilmour? Here's your answer. Wright & Mason missing too, but you get my point. Some great guitar solos, but Gilmour's songwriting is missed."
"White Room and Crossroads are classic tracks but too much surreal whimsy prog stuff in the studio (reminiscent of Piper at Gates of Dawn by Pink Floyd) and too much self indulgent live jamming."
"Includes lots of Yardbirds stuff and some work with other artists, none of which I'm overenamored with apart from some interesting work with Jimmy Page and with the Immediate Allstars (who?)."
"That's the music ranked. But also worth mentioning this very honest autobiography that doesn't attempt to hide the pain and shame in his past. Stay happy Eric."
