Clapton is and always will be a mediocre blues guitarist. There is a guy in every town across America that can play as well or better than Clapton. Clapton is a pioneer and an amazing songwriter, but yea, Derek Trucks is a beast on guitar compared to Clapton.

Creative/artistic is a different story, but as far as who can flat out play the guitar better, it's SRV and it's not even close

Biggest derp on this music board, ever

Well I'm glad you proved like most phish fans you're totally open minded and not pretentious at all.

And I listened to those 2 links. If that's the greatest hits highlight real of phish then that's just bad. Nothing special or elite or great about those. They were OK at best. For the most part it was a few guys playing their instruments at the same time although rarely together or in sync. Sometimes they obviously were out of key and sync and it just sounded bad. They aren't even an impressive jam band. It's not like a bunch of elite musicians having a good time that was like listening to a bunch of mediocre dudes with little practice jam in a garage while their fricked up friend played with the light switches.

Promenade - SSSC

Solo starts around 2:00 but the song is badass and I'd recommend listening to the whole thing.

RNR HOF 6:24 Mark

He may not fit your prototypical guitarist, but to deny that man's talent is ludicrous. If you think that he couldn't play the guitar at a ridiculously high level without contorting it into noises, I think you'd be mistaken. One man's opinion.

What is worse? No one in Phish has musical depth, or Clapton is a mediocre guitarist not on the level of some yokel in a Zwolle bar room? Tough call

I wouldn't say Clapton is mediocre but he's not in the top 5 Blues guitarists of all time much less guitarists of all time.

They're not even one of the great jam bands. They're mediocre garage noise at best.

And if you think Clapton is a top 5 Blues guitarists then I have to guess he's the only Blues you ever listen too.
