Guitar legend and longtime Ernie Ball string player, Eric Clapton, released his album “I Still Do” today! Eric spoke with Guitar World about the album, including how his late aunt inspired the album’s title.
When I went to see her, I said, ‘I want to thank you for being who you were and looking after me when I was a little boy—and a difficult little boy.’ She said, ‘Well, I liked you and I still do.’
The album includes brand-new songs and covers of some of Eric’s favorite songs, including Robert Johnson’s “Stones in My Passway” and Leroy Carr’s “Alabama Woman Blues.”
Stream the album now via Spotify or purchase on iTunes.

I am such a huge fan that while vacationing in Antigua last year..I had our taxi driver show us Eric’s estate. Out of respect of course we viewed it from a distance. We also drove up to the gates of Crossroads. Just beautiful!!
Love Eric’s new song Spiral “You don’t know how much it means to have this music in me”
Amazing guitarist and I’ve stoen so many licks from this guy! The new album is great….
Excited about the new album. Am one of your biggest fans. Rock on Eric CLAPTON!!!
Eric, I know you love Tokyo….but please come back to the U.S. We miss you!!
Eric has been one of my personal favorites for more than 40 years. I’ve seen him live 7 times. Can’t wait to hear the new album
You set a high standard to follow!!. I like Ernie Ball strings on electric. Miss my stolen ’76 Les Paul Custom Black Beauty. Such nice low action and sustain!!.
Hi Eric – thanks for all of the times that you performed in Pittsburgh. Please get well soon. I love your new CD, “I Still Do”
Eric, Great new album. I had peripheral neuropathy with stabbing pains in my feet and painful hands and feet following chemotherapy for multiple myeloma. I ended up using pregabalin and all pain has gone. I hope you find a solution, all the best.
