Eric Clapton: EC Was Here
John Tobler, ZigZag, January 1976
TWO THINGS occur to me. Firstly, if I continue to review every Clapton album and concert, maybe one day I'll get the interview. Join me in hoping, if you will. Secondly, there would appear to be a fairly large number of record buying persons for whom the name of Eric Clapton on a record is insufficient cause to purchase. This second occurrence can only be improved by the album we're discussing.
