Re: Marley
I guess I'm sort of with Hoy on this one. I'd rate the Cream stuff more highly and the solo stuff less than he did, but I think D&tD and Blind Faith are aiight.

I don't necessarily HATE Layla. But it doesn't move me that much either. But the acoustic version is worse than anything Pol Pot ever did.Flex wrote:I guess I'm sort of with Hoy on this one.

Re: Marley
I have a killer live boot version of it rambling around somewhere. Pretty sweet. I don't even remember the acoustic version, which leads me to believe I don't think highly of it.Wolter wrote:I don't necessarily HATE Layla. But it doesn't move me that much either.

Re: Marley
I knew this kid in college who went berserk each time he heard the solo at the end of Let it Rain, running around, trashing in the air, ripping down posters and turning over furniture, etc. He hated Clapton. It was an involuntary reaction.

Hilarious - and synchronized! That very quote has been on my mind for the last couple of days; I even called my co-worker Mitch Cumstein this morning when I arrived. But I didn't think of it when telling the Clapton story.Flex wrote:"You know who that guy was?"dpwolf wrote:I knew this kid in college who went berserk each time he heard the solo at the end of Let it Rain, running around, trashing in the air, ripping down posters and turning over furniture, etc. He hated Clapton.

Re: Marley
No no I was referring to people posting on other boards I have read not here (although some people have posted bollocks here but most that have don't hang around long). Why do people go to such lengths just to post abuse about someone they have never met and never will.JennyB wrote:I hope I wasn't offensive in any way -- I didn't intend to be.

Re: Marley
Yeah -- it's obvious that people tend to say things they would never say to someone face to face. They can feel like a big smartypants on the Interwebs.101Walterton wrote:No no I was referring to people posting on other boards I have read not here (although some people have posted bollocks here but most that have don't hang around long).
