Chris
Guitar and Lead Vocals (Eric)
I was 14,staying with my brother at University ,he had lectures ,as he left he said “There’s the records see you later”
I was there for a week I only listened to Cream Wheels on Fire.
A bit down the road I was a punk ,not a very good one. I went backwards after that , the blues, soul, country , the very same influences I heard in 461 Ocean Boulevard , Layla , Slowhand and 24 Nights.
​
I’m very lucky ,I have worked in bands for 40 years ,my family , friends ,musicians , have always helped , writing , playing , cheering me on.
I needed the challenge to do Eric and the Claptones to celebrate such a fantastic body of work.
It’s so enjoyable.
​
It needs chemistry in a band to do a tribute to a great man, its a great band.
