Often viewed by critics and fans alike as one of the greatest guitarists of all time, Clapton was ranked fourth in Rolling Stone Magazine's list of the "100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time" and #53 on their list of the Immortals: 100 Greatest Artists of All Time.Īlthough Clapton's musical style has varied throughout his career, it has always remained rooted in the blues. He is one of the most successful musicians of the 20th and 21st centuries, garnering an unprecedented three inductions into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (The Yardbirds, Cream, and solo).

So, when you reach the D note, play D and F# together when you reach C play C and E.ĭon’t get what we’re on about? Just jam along with the five-note riff. So why not try something similar yourself? For example, you could play the five-note line higher or lower in pitch on the fretboard.Īlternatively, try adding a couple of extra notes.
