Book Reviews of Clapton: The Autobiography

Book Review: Old age, musicianship, or fame do not imply wisdom
Summary: 1 Stars

DO NOT buy this book, but DO READ it. Borrow it from a friend, or from the library. If you need proof that old age does not equal wisdom, this is it. If you need proof that famous musicians should not be entrusted with any oracular powers, this is it. But I suppose many people need that proof, so in that sense it is a good idea to read this book. It will show you the real Clapton, the incompetent writer and all-around boring, self-serving careerist.

After reading this book, I think Clapton would do anything just to further his career, and after getting his way, he'd write another book about it where he'd say he's made a huge mistake, and he'd like everyone to say a prayer for him. Oh, and he's better now, and the last years have been the best of his life. And he's all wise and perfect now. He'd just been thinking that he's perfect in the past, but now he really is. Honest.
