Vaughan or Clapton

[bahodeme]

My cousin just ask me this question. I tried to explain that their styles are different so it depends on what style you prefer not like Van Halen vs Yngwie (hey). He claimed I am weaseling out (youngster has no respect ).So I will leave to a higher authority. Is it Stevie or Slow Hand?

 

[L3ggy]

Oh, this is a tough one, I do love Texas Flood and Layla..... I can't decide.

 

[Lust]

tough call, but I'll go with Clapton



of course Stevie Ray was some kind of special

 

[Serpent7]

Easy, Vaughan.

 

[hiropro]

Stevie Ray Vaughan.

 

[maildude]

B.B. King

 

[Rane1071]

Yeah this is a toughy, ... I like both, but I'd have to say Clapton because I've probably listened to more of his overall.

 

[bahodeme]

B.B. King

Yes there are other blues guitarists such as B.B. King, Buddy Guy, etc. The 2 I was asked to compare was Vaughan/Clapton.

 

[mrtrebus]

Clapton easily. I hate Vaughan.

 

[ApolloBalboa]

I have to say Clapton, due to the fact that I feel his career has crossed more themes than Vaughn's did (though this may be due to the fact that Clapton's been around longer and Vaughn died earlier). Clapton has been a member of 3 different groups that have all been widely recognized as well.

Damn that is a tough one, I like early Clapton, but I have to go with Vaughan.
