thanks for the chuckle ChiliD!
Excellent analogy - the number of parallels in their work is uncanny -
on "461 Ocean Blvd." Clapton covered both Elmore James' "I Can't Hold Out" (favorite FM version, at the moment, the '68 BBC session on "Jumping At Shadows" & "Vaudeville Years" - under the alternate title "Talk to Me Baby")
and Robert Johnson's "Steady Rollin' Man"
To really add grist to the mill, EC is releasing an album of Johnson covers on March 19th - don't know if they'll be solo, or with a band - possibly both -
got a long way to go to top "Hot Foot Powder"
