Eric Clapton Way Quotations

One summer I remember, I got exposed to Chuck Berry and Buddy Holly and Buddy Holly was a very very big, made a very big impression on me. Because of a lot of things, you know, the way he looked and his charisma.

But I did go to music really early on, even when I was 4 or 5, I was responding to music probably in ways other kids were not.

It is painful to relive things that have caused emotional crises or whatever and find ways to express that musically.

In playing, I suppose my greatest gift was to express the way I felt or the willingness to express myself.

I did play a lot of fingerstyle when I first started playing. I could never really find the right combination of flatpick or fingerpick, so playing fingerstyle is really the easiest way - though it's quite strenuous on the fingertips.

Music will always find its way to us, with or without business, politics, religion, or any other bullshit attached.

I always respected that B.B. sees music in a very open, free way.
