Clapton ranked second in Rolling Stone‘s list of the “100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time” and fourth in Gibson‘s “Top 50 Guitarists of All Time”.

I'm always amazed how Bob acts in so many of these moments as if he's just working -- you know, showing up for a gig and punching in. It takes more than a minute into Crossroads before a hint of a smile emerges on his face, while I'm pretty sure anyone and everyone else is grinning ear to ear.
