From the bestselling author of Shout!, comes the definitive
biography of Eric Clapton, a Rock legend whose life story is as
remarkable as his music, which transformed the sound of a
generation. For half a century Eric Clapton has been acknowledged
to be one of music's greatest virtuosos, the unrivalled master of
an indispensable tool, the solid-body electric guitar. His career
has spanned the history of rock, and often shaped it via the
seminal bands with whom he's played: the Yardbirds, John Mavall's
Bluesbreakers, Cream, Blind Faith, Derek and the Dominoes. Winner
of 17 Grammys, the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame's only three-time
inductee, he is an enduring influence on every other star soloist
who ever wielded a pick. Now, with Clapton's consent and access to
family members and close friends, rock music's foremost biographer
returns to the heroic age of British rock and follows Clapton
through his distinctive and scandalous childhood, early life of
reckless rock 'n' roll excess, and twisting & turning struggle
with addiction in the 60s and 70s. Readers will learn about his
relationship with Pattie Boyd -- wife of Clapton's own best friend
George Harrison -- the tragic death of his son, which inspired one
of his most famous songs, Tears in Heaven, and even the backstories
of his most famed, and named, guitars. Packed with new information
and critical insights, Slowhand finally reveals the complex
character behind a living legend.
