Timeline

1945

Eric Patrick Clapton (born 30 March 1945) is an English rock and blues guitarist, singer, and songwriter.

He is regarded as one of the most successful and influential guitarists in rock music.

He 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".

In 2023, Rolling Stone named Clapton the 35th best guitarist of all time.

Clapton was born on 30 March 1945 in Ripley, Surrey, England, to 16-year-old Patricia Molly Clapton (1929–1999) and Edward Walter Fryer (1920–1985), a 25-year-old soldier from Montreal, Quebec.

Fryer was drafted to war before Clapton's birth and then returned to Canada.

Clapton grew up believing that his grandmother, Rose, and her second husband, Jack Clapp, Patricia's stepfather, were his parents, and that his mother was actually his older sister.

The similarity in surnames gave rise to the erroneous belief that Clapton's real surname is Clapp (Reginald Cecil Clapton was the name of Rose's first husband, Eric Clapton's maternal grandfather).

Years later, his mother married another Canadian soldier and moved to Germany, leaving Eric with his grandparents in Surrey.

Clapton received an acoustic Hoyer guitar, made in Germany, for his thirteenth birthday, but the inexpensive steel-stringed instrument was difficult to play and he briefly lost interest.

Two years later he picked it up again and started playing consistently.

He was influenced by blues music from an early age, and practised long hours learning the chords of blues music by playing along to the records.

He preserved his practice sessions using his portable Grundig reel-to-reel tape recorder, listening to them over and over until he was satisfied.

1961

In 1961, after leaving Hollyfield School in Surbiton, he studied at the Kingston College of Art but was expelled at the end of the academic year because his focus had remained on music rather than art.

His guitar playing was sufficiently advanced that, by the age of 16, he was getting noticed.

Around this time, he began busking around Kingston, Richmond, and the West End.

1962

In 1962, he started performing as a duo with fellow blues enthusiast Dave Brock in pubs around Surrey.

When he was 17, he joined his first band, an early British R&B group, the Roosters, whose other guitarist was Tom McGuinness.

1963

After playing in a number of different local bands, Clapton joined the Yardbirds from 1963 to 1965, and John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers from 1965 to 1966.

After leaving Mayall, he formed the power trio Cream with drummer Ginger Baker and bassist/vocalist Jack Bruce, in which Clapton played sustained blues improvisations and "Arty, blues-based psychedelic pop".

He stayed with them from January until August 1963.

In October of that year, he performed a seven-gig stint with Casey Jones & the Engineers.

In October 1963, Clapton joined the Yardbirds, a rhythm and blues band, and stayed with them until March 1965.

1968

After four successful albums, Cream broke up in November 1968.

Clapton then formed the blues rock band Blind Faith with Baker, Steve Winwood, and Ric Grech, recording one album and performing on one tour before they broke up.

1970

Clapton then toured with Delaney & Bonnie and recorded his first solo album in 1970, before forming Derek and the Dominos with Bobby Whitlock, Carl Radle and Jim Gordon.

Like Blind Faith, the band only lasted one album, Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs, which includes "Layla", one of Clapton's signature songs.

1974

Clapton continued to record a number of successful solo albums and songs over the next several decades, including a 1974 cover of Bob Marley's "I Shot the Sheriff" (which helped reggae reach a mass market), the country-infused Slowhand album (1977) and the pop rock of 1986's August.

1991

Following the death of his son Conor in 1991, Clapton's grief was expressed in the song "Tears in Heaven", which appeared on his Unplugged album.

1996

In 1996 he had another top-40 hit with the R&B crossover "Change the World".

1998

In 1998, he released the Grammy award-winning "My Father's Eyes".

In 1998, Clapton, a recovering alcoholic and drug addict, founded the Crossroads Centre on Antigua, a medical facility for those recovering from substance abuse.

1999

Since 1999, he has recorded a number of traditional blues and blues rock albums and hosted the periodic Crossroads Guitar Festival.

2004

In 2004, he was awarded a CBE for services to music.

He has received four Ivor Novello Awards from the British Academy of Songwriters, Composers and Authors, including the Lifetime Achievement Award.

He is the only three-time inductee to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame: once as a solo artist, and separately as a member of the Yardbirds and of Cream.

In his solo career, he has sold more than 280 million records worldwide, making him one of the best-selling musicians of all time.

2009

He was also named number five in Time magazine's list of "The 10 Best Electric Guitar Players" in 2009.

2018

His most recent studio album is Happy Xmas (2018).

Clapton has received 18 Grammy Awards as well as the Brit Award for Outstanding Contribution to Music.
