I wasn't able to retrieve the actual article content — the text you pasted is only the site's navigation/header boilerplate ("MusicFilmTravelArtNews Shop Mailing List… Cover Story | Yard Act"), and my attempts to fetch the page via WebFetch and WebSearch were both blocked by permissions in this session.

Could you either:
1. Grant permission for WebFetch/WebSearch so I can retrieve the page, or
2. Paste the actual body text of the article here?

I don't want to guess at which guitarist Clapton was referring to and invent quotes or details that aren't verified.
