Eric Clapton


Eric Clapton is one of my favorite guitarists of all time. He has created one of the most well-known rock and roll riffs in the world and many great songs. Clapton worked with many bands such as Cream and Derek and the Dominos, but found great success in his solo work. He has owned a few of the most valuable guitars on the planet and has even been referred to as God by his loyal followers.
Clapton was born in Ripley, England on March 30, 1945. His mom abandoned him at an early age so he was raised by his grandparents. He started playing guitar at around 15-16 and joined groups two years later. The first band he played with was the Yardbirds. They included very famous guitarists Jimmy Page and Jeff Beck. 
Now, Eric Clapton enjoys a more relaxed life. He has settled down and don't worry, he still plays guitar.
