Eric Clapton is the Forrest Gump of music. The best work that he has been a part of was mostly facilitated by others. Without Baker, Bruce, Allman, Gordon, etc. he doesn’t have anything worth a damn in his catalog.

Can/could he play guitar? Sure. He is a fine player. Forrest Gump could also run like the wind and play the frick out of ping pong. He also was in the right place at the right time just like Clapton.

This probably isn't really unpopular but David Lee Roth was spot on about Elvis Costello and music critics.

The Widespread Panic guitarist that died of cancer was never any good.

He was OK but dying of cancer made him better than he actually was.

Duane Allman's contribution to music is vastly overrated, and Dickey was The Allman Brother's Band.

The reason that would be an unpopular opinion is because it shows both a poor understanding of the Allman bros and music in general.

When he wasn't being a drunken a-hole, David Allen Coe was a solid songwriter.

I've always thought that Clapton and Hendrix were a bit overrated. Hendrix because he died early. I kind of get that. But Clapton? Clapton is God??? I never understood that.

Country music is an oxymoron.

Rush is obnoxious and boing at the same time.

Totally agree. Dickey Betz was a drunk a-hole. He couldn't carry Duane Allman's jock strap.
