Enjoy. Although I don't think that he uses cheesewire. He's like a true pro, man.
he started out poorly, after he made some "race" records, he could afford some proper equipment

Eric Clapton - Layla - YouTube

This is one of my absolute favourite ever videos. The song isn't that hard to play (it still took me about three weeks of practice to get it all right), but you can't deny the FEELING.
i meant co-writers

Layla exemplifies one of the points i was making, Duane Allman was around a lot at that time and in Derek & The Dominoes - and Duane himself said when he heard Clapton playing slide - "well, he sure ain't Duane Allman"

most of Clapton's solo stuff I find rather weak
