I think he had a better blues voice by the time of Slowhand than he did in his 20s, more grit to it.
One of his guitar hits was stolen from session god Dean Parkeshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K4HTtEqPqaM&t=1623
>>128485031Always was a great singer either way. Probably the best singer of the famous guitarists of the time. Not the best player, but I still wish I paid attention more growing up. You can't go wrong learning from him. Just a solid player.
for the same reason young BB King in the '50s was not at his peak as a singer yet as he was too light-voiced and girly-sounding back then to do blues vocals well.
>>128480139Those few years with Marcella Detroit in the band- Wonderful Tonight, Lay Down Sally, Cocaine etc were still damn good, it's way later after the baby yeeting song that he got pop to the max with shit like this: https://youtu.be/nndb5z7ZAn4
https://youtu.be/k5JfV6rqajg This album was pop as fuck too but I like it. All Phil Collins stuff I believe.
>>128486532Come to think of it, Bowie and Clapton have similar career trajectories. Both had their Phil Collins period at least.
>>128480139>wonderful tonightgood song
>>128484628That's fucking synchronicity, not deja vu, you fool
>>128480139Clapton gets a lot of deserved hate but his music is what it is. Wonderful Tonight is alright every once in a while.
