From The Album Eric Clapton Unplugged

at least I hope i'm not the only one who thinks so. Theres just some off ideas in there. Some interestingly guitar unfriendly fingerings. Some of the left hand positions seem almost to much at times compared to what the song actually sounds like. I think Jesse is a talented player/transcriber and may have taken this number too far. Anyway, after all my complaining, its probably pretty close but I cannot agree 100 percent with the transcription.

THEN, they should get a REAL transcriber to write this thing. Second, the LACK of the guitar carrying the melody on several songs, is VERY annoying. Whether or not it's CLAPTON playing that particular line, everyone wants to play a FULL song and not "second guitar" for pete's sake... that's why they bought the book in the first place! Third, there are some WAY wrong notes and positions on here. You'd think they'd check it before they printed millions of books. Oh well... In summary, all these songs are ridiculously simple. It's easy to play, but takes forever to memorize. THAT'S the hard part. Practice makes perfect! (Though an accurate transcription would sure be appreciated!)

would also like to have seen a solo guitar version of "Running On Faith", but I guess that would defeat the spirit of "note for note" transcriptions. It does leave a lot of room for creativity, though, at least for this song. No TAB book is perfect, and this is no exception. As long as you know that there will be mistakes, then the book is otherwise very true to the recording. Just be prepared for mistakes and be prepared to correct them or improvise.

learning the songs a little easier.
