Default But I still love you ezza!

Just have to say for the record in case it wasnt clear that I still love Clapton, just one listen to telephone blues is enough to make him immortal!

The parrallel drawn between Peter and Eric in terms of demise though I´m afraid i disagree with. Although they both obviously let their drug of choice consume them somewhat for a time i think more or less Eric remained intact and came out the otherside more or less the same guy.I would like to present eric clapton 1st solo album as exibit A for my case. Although i grew quite fond of the album with time and it does have a few nice cuts, in reality its as mediocre and irrelevant as any of his subsequent releases post derek and doms and heroin addiction(exception of journeyman).
Peter on the other hand has been on a much more arduous journey which just breaks ones heart to even contemplate.
