Saw Marc Ribot's wild ass band tonight. So I've got the Tom Waits, Larry Taylor, Marc Ribot set, even if I collected them separately from each other.

Eric Clapton is the lamest musician

God he's the worst

He was so much better on drugs.

The Cult's trio of Love, Electric and Sonic Temple is a surprisingly varied and under appreciated run of albums.

His Yardbirds, Bluesbreakers, and Dominoes work is all stellar. I can't begin to guess how heroin and alcoholism turned him sleepier than a post-1980 David Gilmour extended solo, but there you have it.

It takes a truly transcendent lameness to take the emotional destruction of losing your four-year-old son and turn it into a damp turd like "Tears in Heaven".

I've just never heard the blues guitar sound so.....white.

This comment makes me feel really sad.

I can't think of anything worse than to go through the loss he did here. To criticise the song from that angle feels really shitty to me.

"I used to be into dope. Now I'm into racism. It's much heavier, man"

Eric Clapton means nothing to me, which may be why I have no misgivings about professing my fondness for his "Unplugged" album while being totally ambivalent about virtually everything else he's ever done.

That version of "Nobody Knows You When You're Down and Out" is lovely.

Pfft yeah and I'm the sociopath.

Where's Skitch when I need him?

Likely stalking a colored person from a safe distance in his store; ensuring no product leaves without transaction.
