Is Eric Clapton still a nazi?

I was at The Rock Against Racism rally 1978: Victoria Park April 1978

The march started in Trafalgar Square and spilled on to the Embankment.

It was stated that when the head of the march reached Victoria Park there were still people leaving the square.

I seem to remember some controversy about Eric Clapton following an incident in August 1976.

Eric Clapton, the rock guitarist,interrupted a Birmingham concert to make a speech supporting Enoch Powell, the racist Tory MP.

It was a great day despite being pelted with bottles outside the Blade Bone Pub Bethnal Green Road, Bethnal Green

by the National Front.

Sounds like quite an experience, Fox.

Yeah... Clapton had made comments supporting Enoch Powell, and suggested that all the black people should be kicked out of Britain (when questioned about this incident relatively recently, he reiterated his support for EP). Despite the fact that he started his career as a second rate Hendrix rip-off and had a hit with a Bob Marley cover.

Ha ha ha.. ignorance is bliss eh Jeremy.

[Jeremy]

Huh. Yeah. "started his career" is of course bollocks. But I distinctly remember Clapton saying that he got an afro hair do to copy Hendrix, and I reckon Cream were heavily influenced by Hendrix musically.

What's to dislike about Crystal Palace FC?

[aquarius moon]

They didn't beat Chelsea!!

I've never been particularly in to Eric Clapton, but am surprised to hear about the racist stuff. He's very chummy with legends like BB King.

I dont like cafes that serve you a cup of milky water with a teabag floating in it as an excuse for a cup of tea, ... So ive just paid 70p , 80p or even a quid for someone to plonk a teabag in a mug - pah! ... Oh yeah , and capital radio and it's playlist of tripe .... Ha ha! I quite like the Eagles :)

[Otta]

A lot of the bands / artists mentioned on here have a song or a handful of songs I like, but that's about it.

Clapton adds a better voice and guitar skills to songs Dylan writes.

[Otta]

Bruce Springsteen.

I've tried, I've really tried.

The Smiths (more to the point, Morrissey), Oasis, Coldplay, The Who, U2, Muse. Just a few examples of how my life would be no less rich if they had never existed.

[maxxi]

Fleetwood Mac

The Smiths (intros apart)

Black Eyed Peas

- and Springsteen of course (thought that was a given).

eta- just realised x-post with edcam. Always quite liked The Smiths right up until the moment the singer opened his mouth.

They are essentially a talentless novelty act. But it's kids music innit...

I'm so with you there Otta!

[FJDGoose]

I quite like Bruce , well , bits and pieces .i've never been into the velvet underground or the clash - over-rated.

[Sue]

I like The Eagles!

Well, I like Desperado :)

[keekybreeks]

Lou Reed and/or the VU - was it just me or is it really as shit as I found it?

Clash . All the kids in the A classes at school liked them. just awful
