I've always felt that Eric Clapton is overrated. I genuinely like Cream... perhaps because of the talent of the other two-thirds of that group. Derek & The Dominos doesn't have the same effect. If anything, Clapton brings the rest of the group down. Duane Allman was fantastic, but I find his slide-playing on "Layla" shabby and overbearing. Then there's the story of how Clapton screwed Gordon out of a writing credit despite his beautiful piano outro... just a horrorshow of a human being.
