Clapton’s Influence: Have You Ever In The Style of “Have You Ever Loved A Woman” By Eric Clapton

No offense to Clapton’s pop recordings, but the phrase “Clapton Is God” wasn’t coined because of his songwriting. It was his blues soloing that first blew people’s minds. And it’s his slow blues soloing that first lit the blues fire under me.

“Have You Ever Loved A Woman” is one of the signature songs he has covered for decades. There’s an obvious Freddie King influence in everything he plays, but in this song especially, there’s so much B.B. King influence as well. This course will teach you a 60-bar (5 Chorus) slow blues solo that’s built on the best parts of the best liver performances of this song I could find.
