More quotes by Eric Clapton
I always respected that B.B. sees music in a very open, free way.
Eric Clapton
I am, and always will be, a blues guitarist.
Eric Clapton
If you hand me a guitar, I'll play the blues. That's the place I automatically go.

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
There are people these days who can do things on the guitar which are beyond my reach. There's one guy who plays with Queen who can do things I would dream of doing. I sincerely mean that.
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

Eric Clapton

Eric Clapton
Having lovers and friends is all good and fine But I don't like yours and you don't like mine.
Eric Clapton
Like a fool, I fell in love with you, Turned my whole world upside down
Eric Clapton
I can't play long solos anymore without boring myself.
Eric Clapton
Every time you pick up your guitar to play, play as if it's the last time.
Eric Clapton
The blues are what I've turned to, what has given me inspiration and relief in all the trials of my life.
Eric Clapton
When all the original blues guys are gone, you start to realize that someone has to tend to the tradition. I recognize that I have some responsibility to keep the music alive, and it's a pretty honorable position to be in.
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
I often enjoy singing in an acoustic setting more than an amplified one.
Eric Clapton
I grew up playing in clubs - that's my spiritual stomping ground.
