Catching up with #EricClapton's 1977 concert appearance on #TheOldGreyWhistleTest while it is still on #iPlayer
#YvonneElliman's cover of #BlindFaith 21mins into it is a standout.

@lawyersgunsnmoney @Badger_AF There's lots to sift through with #ericclapton but more recently, we've this 2020 ditty, with his good mate, another extremely problematic human with a decade's long history of very disturbing views #VanMorrison

@lawyersgunsnmoney @Badger_AF #ericclapton sort of apologized years later, after RAR blew a hole in his bank account perhaps?
But it was part of a far bigger pattern. Including him being one of the pallbearers when Britain's leading neo-Nazi National Front leader, Enoch Powell kicked the bucket.
I never judge people badly for being a junkie/alcoholic, but I won't tolerate decades of blatant racism or Clapton's various other very nasty views.
@lawyersgunsnmoney @Badger_AF
"The Black w—s and c—s and Arabs and f—ing Jamaicans don't belong here, we don't want them here,' Clapton added on stage then, using blatant racist slurs. 'This is England, this is a white country, we don't want any Black w—s and c—s living here. We need to make clear to them they are not welcome" #EricClapton
1977.
Maar in datzelfde jaar verschijnt er ook een zwarte bladzijde in zijn leven.
Tijdens de opnames van Rough Mix krijgt hij de diagnose MS.
Toch trekt hij op tournee met #EricClapton, en werkt nog aan solo materiaal met Clapton wat in 1979 resulteert in #SeeMe.
In 1983 richt zijn vriendin Boo Oldfield een concert op tvv van MS. In 1984 verhuist hij naar Texas en vormt een Amerikaanse versie van Slim Chance.
Op 4 juni 1997 sterft hij aan complicaties in het laatste stadium van de ziekte MS.
Il paraît que c’est la Saint-Amour aujourd’hui ?!
Pour l’occasion je partage ces cœurs capturés lors de l’expo « Cœurs, du romantisme dans l’art contemporain » au Musée de la Vie romantique à Paris (2020) !

E dopo che #Prince aveva omaggiato #Clapton, coverando a modo suo l'assolo di #Eric nella canzone #WhileMyGuitarGentlyWeeps (perché l'assolo di questa canzone di #GeorgeHarrison è di #EricClapton), ecco che #Slowhand onora il #FollettodiMinneapolis
