It's really interesting that Eric Clapton should come up in this discussion.
A few weeks ago on the radio I heard a recording of Clapton in concert
covering Dave Mason's "Only You Know and I Know". I don't know how old the
performance was, but it sure did sound a lot like "Eyes of Silver" (I came in
after the song had started and at first thought it was the Doobies from the
sound of the guitars). Made me wonder if he had taken a cue or two from the
Doobs. Maybe there's a mutual admiration thing going on? ;-)
