Different Mixes

I remember hearing about two different mixes. One being with horns {or more horns} and the other not, and some other slight differences. Do the two mixes presented here, as 2006 Deluxe Edition, relate to that? —Preceding unsigned comment added by NantucketNoon (talk • contribs) 06:50, 27 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Need source for Stephen Stills lead guitar (solo on Let It Rain)

I do not have this album, but my vinyl copy of "Eric Clapton at His Best" (a compilation from two years later, 1972) contains several songs from this album. On my album, Stephen Stills is listed as being on guitar (but not vocals, which is all that was listed here in this article until I added guitar just now). To be clear, Stills is in the credits for the songs from the present album "Eric Clapton" only. Stills plays a single (lovely) solo in Let it Rain that starts at around 1:30 and is typical of him (very similar to his sound and approach on studio "Wooden Ships"). I have found him credited with this solo in several locations, but they are not good enough sources for me to feel justified in changing this article. Has anybody got a good reference for the Stills lead guitar? Clapton plays some great solos after Stills, let's give Stills his due.David Couch (talk) 21:14, 6 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Wrong song credits

The credits in this article do not correspond neither to those on my CD version nor on the info provided by Discogs. According to the cover notes, Bonnie (and not Delaney) Bramlett co-wrote most of the songs, including Bottle of Red Wine. Delaney is only credited for producing and arranging the music.

I have now changed it accordingly. Aejsing (talk) 14:57, 19 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Clapton used a Gibson Les Paul for all the songs on his first solo album. He only posed with a Fender Stratocaster

Clapton Said in his auto biography he used a Gibson Les Paul on all of the songs from his first album called Eric Clapton. He Said in his auto biography he only posed with a Fender Stratocaster but all songs were recorded with a Gibson Les Paul. Clapton also States in his auto biography he did not start to record with a Stratocaster untill 1974. 2A00:801:797:6E4E:B870:F8D9:323B:546B (talk) 21:44, 31 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
