As stated elsewhere, Clapton/King was a mess.
Is it me, or is BB King mailing it in when he performs these numbers? I know that
the man is an original, but he relies on that glissando lick (strike a note way up
high on the neck and then slide quickly down in pitch) to excess these days. He does
it before a solo, in the middle of a solo, at the end of the solo, prior to a verse,
and as the final note of a song. Having a unique blues vocabulary is admirable, but
this guy seems reduced to a single word or two.
Just noticing things like this...
