More quotes by Eric Clapton
I often enjoy singing in an acoustic setting more than an amplified one.
Eric Clapton
Music will always find its way to us, with or without business, politics, religion, or any other bullshit attached.
Eric Clapton
I wish I could write easily. I'm one of those guys who's visited by the muse when things are dire.
Eric Clapton
I feel wonderful because I see the love light in your eyes, and the wonder of it all is you just don't realize how much I love you.
Eric Clapton
[Unplugged] was also the cheapest to produce and required the least amount of preparation and work. But if you want to know what it actually cost me, go to Ripley and visit the grave of my son.
Eric Clapton
Whatever your standing in life, the most important thing is behaving in ways that help other people. It's the same with music. I am a servant of the music ... and if I get caught up in ego, I'll lose everything .. it'll burn and that's a guarantee.
Eric Clapton
At first the music almost repelled me, it was so intense, and this man made no attempt to sugarcoat what he was trying to say, or play. It was hard-core, more than anything I had ever heard. After a few listenings I realized that, on some level, I had found the master, and that following this man's example would be my life's work.
Eric Clapton
I mean, it didn't matter to me that there were people, it didn't matter that I was shy Just the sound was so captivating that it helped me to get rid of those inhibitions.
Eric Clapton
All along this path I tread, my heart betrays my weary head, with nothing but my love to save, from the cradle to the grave.
Eric Clapton
I've always wanted the sound of Muddy Waters' early records - only louder
Eric Clapton
I got a problem, can you relate? I got a woman calling love hate.
Eric Clapton
I just like the company of beautiful women. I have a weakness in that department. And I suppose because I am fairly well off and a famous musician, I'm up for grabs. And that makes me an eligible bachelor in the press.
Eric Clapton
I'd love to knock an audience cold with one note, but what do you do for the rest of the evening?
Eric Clapton
Every time you pick up your guitar to play, play as if it's the last time.
Eric Clapton
Plant your love and let it grow.
Eric Clapton
I can't play long solos anymore without boring myself.
Eric Clapton
I listened to King Oliver and I listened to Louis Armstrong, Jelly Roll Morton, Thelonious Monk, Charles Mingus, John Coltrane, Archie Shepp... I listened to everything I could that came from that place that they call the blues but, in formality, isn't necessarily the blues.
Eric Clapton
Music survives everything, and like God, it is always present. It needs no help, and suffers no hindrance.
Eric Clapton
Well, I think part of my gift, or if I have one, is that I love listening.
Eric Clapton
I couldn't believe how good Jimi Hendrix was It was a really difficult thing for me to deal with, but I just had to surrender and say, 'This is fantastic.'
Eric Clapton
