Call it youth or something...
I've had many Clapton CDs, the Rainbow Concert, One More Car One More Rider, Unplugged, Chronicles, Clapton & Winwood... The songs are good, performances are good, but really... they are boring and after two or three listens I almost never listen to them anymore.
The one that really captures me is Derek & the Dominoes. His sound is flat IMO, and the one thing that I really dislike is his voice. Really. I don't know why... His voice is really not that expressive for a bluesman, save for Layla. I don't know, maybe this is just age or something? When I listen to Clapton I really feel that he belongs to the older generation, unlike someone like Johnny Winter.
Sorry for the random post guys, Im just trying to spit this out and maybe some of you can point me somewhere. He is a great guitarist, just that not one piece of him really blows me away.
