>>>He sounds great!
>>>I love Eric Clapton and that sounds like him. Maybe if that isn't on YourTube and I hear the real records He may sounds better than Eric.
>>>I'm really sorry that he is gone.

>>I just finished reading Eric Clapton's autobiography; very interesting book. If you like his music, you may also enjoy the book.

>I was pleasantly surprised how open he was about the less savory parts of his life. You usually don't get that from someone so famous and successful. In fact I think the book kind of fell apart at the end, after he had gotten himself straightened out.

I agree that it does feel strange when he talks openly about all the "bad" things he did. But I was happy that he, at the end, conquered his demons.

I also recently read autobiography of Ronnie Wood (of Rolling Stones) called Ronnie; also very open and very revealing stoy of his life, drugs, alcohol, women, etc. One, kind of funny thing I noticed, that Ronnie mentioned many, many times Eric Clapton in his book. And Clapton mentioned Ronnie only once and in passing. Also, Ronnie said that Clapton had a crush on Barbara Streisand (sp?) but Clapton never mentioned it once. I guess, from the distance of so many years it is easy to forget some things and remember other.

All in all, I loved both books. I can't wait for Mick to write his story :).
