Ok. I admit that Clapton is the best guitarist in the world but I hate
him, that I know nothing about him and you know everything, that I
must have been high on crack because that was the best performance by
any band ever, I have no knowledge of music and that a Fender Strat
through a tweed amp is the best sound on God's green earth.
If you aren't Mrs Clapton, you surely share the same mind set.
This is my last word in this thread.
Steve.
