ERIC CLAPTON
Eric Clapton was born on march 30 1945 in Ripley, Surrey, England. He like to play blues-rock on a electric guitar. Some unique thing about Eric Clapton are the "woman tone" which is a noise that he make with his guitar that is dark and distorted sound that is articulate yet thick also Although he has varied his musical style throughout his career, it has always remained grounded in the blues and last he is often credited with bringing reggae and Bob Marley to the mainstream. There are many reason that this man is great one reason is that he is the only person to be inducted in the Rock and Roll hall of fame 3 times, he is ranked number fourth best guitarist ever in Rolling Stones magazine and last he is ranked 53 on rolling stones list of Immortals : 100 greatest artist or all time.

  1. Claptons blues and acoustic styles are both clean and lively, in tears of heaven you can see the fingerpicking on the right hand, i also like his laid back style while playing,
