is that the old guitar w/efx built in, used to be held together w/rubberbands? saw that 35-40 yrs ago. how sweet a legacy he left in song, lyric, and just plain coolness.

That's sad. I stumbled upon him years ago by way of Mark Knopfler's music. He was a huge influence on Knopfler... you can definitely hear it in his playing style. Clapton's recent recordings with him aren't bad at all.

Maybe we'll get a good documentary out of this.
