Today is Eric Claptons birthday.
One of the greats without a doubt.

Slan,
D.
Yes he is. I think I’ll go and turn on “Wonderful Tonight” now…that’s one of YOUR favorites, isn’t it, D? 
Actually, I think I’ll go turn on his Unplugged cd…Layla on that is the best 
Happy Birthday, Mr. Clapton! 
Can’t argue with that. Many happy returns Mr C.
Did anybody hear about Betty Windsor (aka The Queen Of England–it’s always difficult to refrain from using titles when talking about her) not knowing who Eric Clapton was?
Or was it just a rumour? I think I read it in a Rolling Stone magazine…but I’m not sure.
Some of us call her ‘Lizzie’. Not to her face mind, we don’t get a chance - I don’t know if she talks to peasants like me very often…
All hail Eric C!
Happy birthday, EC. I like his album with the Bluesbreakers best.
I wonder if Loren will notice this. He might dispute your assessment, D. 
I remember that bit of banter well..
I never said he was God, merely one of the greats.
With you on the Bluesbreaker days..probably his finest hour and a long long way from Wonderful Tonight but lets not throw a spanner into the Birthday Cake..
Slan,
D.
