I am a musician guitarist, when I first heard the guitar and the sound that Eric Clapton produced, I was amazed, that amazement keeps me to this day. I don't know why they attack him, no one is perfect and as individuals we all have ups and downs. It's a bit vain to criticize, unless we think we are perfect so we have the right and that's why we criticize. Clapton's musical opus is diverse, in different periods, I don't know how they can claim that it hasn't changed in 50 years, nonsense. I love Clapton's music and the sound of the guitar and it will stay that way.

I think the word "Hate" is a little strong for his relationships with his peers !

@chrisbacos

I do like Clapton but I've heard he's not very nice.

@myanbeach

I lost the interest in Clapton after Derek and the Dominos.  He went into this " lounge music" mode.

TLDR: EVH, jeff beck, blackmore, zappa, Townshend, rita coolidge, robert cray

@johnparkes2300

What instrumental has Clapton written he sings with guitar solos certainly no Chet Atkins

@austinmchale7232

The piano coda was the making of Layla for me, a bit like Peter Green's Oh well (part 2) for which, he said, part 1 was a kind of prelude. Rita Coolidge has every right to feel hard done by. Pink Floyd settled with Clare Torry (?) for her vocal on  The Great Gig in the Sky, eventually. It's never too late to do the right thing, as the saying goes. Slán.

@robertmitchell2178

Clapton peaked in Cream. Since then he became a cookie cutter, guitarist wondering in his rock star  world, rehashing sameness. Stagnant and dull.

@leanidis300

The only beef I ever had with Eric is ,as technically good his guitar playing is, he has absolutely no stage presence!
