Eric Clapton: Life in 12 Bars tonight BBC 21:15

I'd say that is definitely worth a watch, although been on before.

Excellent documentary but how the fuck is he still standing.
Raging addict followed by raging alcoholic
Patti Boyd didn't half screw his head up,

You would not have have got odds on him ending it all when his son fell out the window and 350 ft to his death.

Crazy as it sounds his son's death saved Clapton who got his act togetherand dedicated the rest of his life to his son.

Married to a stunner and has three lovely daughters.

Let's not forget he's one of best guitarists ever and without the demons seems a nice guy.

In that case I want his whole musical career expunged from the history books and this thread closed.

I was at the infamous gig in Birmingham where he made his, err, observations.
I am considering making an official complaint to the BBC for their blatant racism in showing this documentary.

Thank you Moby, please do that.

There is no place for people who made racist remarks 45 or so years ago in this day and age.

I hope him and Danny baker end up sharing a cell
