“Clapton – The Autobiography”
Eric Clapton’s book is a wonderful look inside his brilliant career and life. As a boy, Eric was unaware that he had been given up by his mother and raised by his grandparents. As his family’s dirty secret, the guitarist didn’t discover this for years and was then painfully shy as a result. Eric’s account spares no details of his battles with heroin and alcohol – the latter causing him to lose the one woman he had yearned for – his “Layla” – Patti Boyd Harrison, whom he married and divorced. Great inside info about Cream, the Yardbirds and the blues!
