I love Bluesbreakers with Eric Clapton. It's on heavy rotation right now for
me. I'll grant that Eric is treading waters these days, but I listen to the
Bluesbreakers album as well as Blind Faith ( my personal favorite) and  D
and Dominoes regularly. I'll speculate that Richard Lloyd listens to his
share of Eric Clapton too. Taking nothing away from Richard, he's truly one
of the innovators of the past 25 years. EC is coming to Seattle this summer
, supposedly his last world tour, and I still haven't bought a ticket...but
I'll be seeing Richard in less than a week !
