Information
"Clapton is God". This was the statement that repeatedly popped up in graffiti messages in the late 1960's, throughout London and the U.S. It's a bold statement that is sometimes hard to argue with. Eric Clapton is the only musician to be inducted in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on three seperate occassions. Once as a member of the Yardbirds, once as a member of Cream and finally as an individual artist.
Throughout his extended career, Eric Clapton has covered many musical genres, but his style and sound was always rooted in the blues. This Blues style was particularly evident in Clapton's stints with John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers and The Yardbirds. Clapton's work with Cream showed his versatility as a Hard Rock performer as well.
Eric Clapton's upcoming 2006 tour will feature Robert Cray as the opening act for the U.S. leg of the tour. Clapton's set lists for this tour will feature a mix of some of his most popular solo work as well as songs from his former bands, Derek & the Dominoes, Cream, and the Yardbirds.
