He’s considered one of the greatest guitarists of all time.

Clapton, 71, said damage to his nervous system had made it hard for him to play the guitar because of the illness.

“I’ve had quite a lot of pain over the last year. It started with lower back pain, and turned into what they call peripheral neuropathy – which is where you feel like you have electric shocks going down your leg,” he told Classic Rock magazine.

“And I’ve had to figure out how to deal with some other things from getting old.’’

    Have another needle full of heroin, Eric. And leave your children away from the window this time, would you? Idiot.

      Sick mental scum!

        No, actually, the sick mental scum is the media that deifies reprehensible people. Michael Jackson also comes to mind. As for the fans, I expect no different anyway, they’re boot-lickers to any celebrity. Kinda like you.

          You’ve been banned scum. You’re idiot enough to ignore good music, expertise and genius.

            You’re content to star-gaze no matter the morality of the scum that allowed his child to die while he put the needle in his arm. I’m sure you root for the Who, one of whom is a child-porn fan. Have a sense of right and wrong and don’t patronize and celebrate evil. How dare you? Who ARE you that you tolerate evil folks just because their music is sweet to your ears? Filth.

              Flagged sick mental scum!

                He was also wrong, as Clapton’s son was living with the mother at the time (Here’s her talking about that day).. His birth actually lead to Clapton stopping his drinking.
                Too bad Jim won’t be able to post an apology to you for being wrong.
                Not on this site, anyway.

                  I remember the details, but didn’t want to engage in an argument. :) Thank you for banning him Hirightnow!

                    No time for people who only want to flame.

    Wait a darn minute… I distinctly remember learning back in the 70s that Clapton was Gawd. Why can’t he simply heal himself?
