I think that Clapton man is going to be a guitar player and I know it's from the heart and I'm talking from from within when he played we play a note to charisma that he put into you know me I know a lot of guys can can play a guitar. I mean can just play and make a monkey out of a guitar. But there's no meaning attainable. But I got it can take one note or two notes or whatever you play man and you can feel you can feel where he was born you can feel a mother's labor pains and when it got when I got him to start like that man thought he played good. Ok example I think Keith Richards about the five string guitar to keep play so much good time he don't even know what he played until he if you want to get to play this pattern you know just there and here you've got a record as a play just right here and right there because he created me and he never repeats the U.S.A. but two different two different type dude man WHERE WHERE WHERE WHERE WHERE. Like avocado and a guy you just die of it.
They're dead yeah I got him and his strangers decide they each had to make up his get tough and now you back even push this train down is only get up but I got me I'm too I'm trying to get you. He got a heart in it you know I'm dumb when I'm when I'm going to win some minute I'm talking about heart man heart in it you know and so I just kept a man bad I was so proud when I saw him he got all these awards because he's driven. Let me ask you this very general question to see how you're on this program we're doing about the beginning of rock n roll. It's hard to define what that really means but what do you think what do you think is the beginning of rock rock what we call rock but to me if you don't get down you have to go back to begin the music because otherwise man I don't think that when somebody put a name or something they make it the beginning of it and that's what I think is happening with a beginning a rock n roll to begin that is me.
Right now I just take a back you know. Back Man when I was a boy I was more people when I don't know back in a Cab Calloway need men of God they demanded God to play them till I'm gone and if you just take them off of it man you've got rock n roll we have made it is how could I be the first. I'm just saying what I think and I don't really know you know but if you must say Well when they decided to name it rock n roll What if you just had a name in 1950 you could say me and if you want to go back before they wouldn't if somebody else is like you. You know a lot of stuff going on you know like marriages that everybody still in my music. Where do you get it for I mean you know it's just one of those things.
