The other day we told you about Karl Lagerfeld’s bespoke trunk from Louis Vuitton which holds the Chanel kingpin’s collection of 20 iPods and a speaker system. In the same vein, we now present Eric Clapton’s ultra-luxurious, custom-made crocodile guitar case from Hermès (above). Hermès also has a Special Orders workshop which can produce everything [...]

No, it’s not a VH1 special about the Yankees’ favorite Irish singer. It is instead a profile of Ronan Tynan in the Asbury Park Press. Tynan, performing today in Red Bank, is getting ready to release an album of his version of songs by U2, Eric Clapton and the Boss. It’s clearly just what the [...]

Concept albums have always been a hit or miss affair, all too often to be taken with a pinch of salt. Some work brilliantly; many fall flat on their esoteric face. Dr John’s response to Hurricane Katrina is an intriguing album. Some is rousing, some depressing: it’s littered with political statements, perhaps too much at [...]

Performing This Week... Live at Ronnie Scott's, recorded during a 2007 run at the renowned London club, is Jeff Beck's first release on the Eagle label after a long-standing tenure on Epic Records. It's an understatement to say it bodes well for the continued vigor of the man who replaced Eric Clapton in The Yardbirds...

IF YOUR local trattoria was inexplicably closed on Wednesday night, blame Adelmo "Zucchero" Fornaciari, because Glasgow's sizeable Italian community seemed to be at his sell-out show. Such is the grizzled, gruff Tuscan trad-rocker's renown as a songwriter and vocalist, that over the years he has worked with Luciano Pavarotti, Eric Clapton, Bono and, um, Paul Young amongst others. At home he fills stadia...

I thought of a song I could share, as a poignant reminder of why we give thanks for our blessings: So, please enjoy Eric Clapton's, " Tears in Heaven ": I imagine most music fans know that Clapton wrote "Tears in Heaven" as a requiem for his son, Conor, at 4 years-old, fell 53 floors to his death in New York in 1991. Check the Wikipedia entry . It turns...

Those crafty marketing executives know exactly what makes us tick: they take a picture of whichever ‘celebrity’ tosspot they think is currently ‘hot’ and slap it onto the advert for whatever overpriced piece of crap they’re trying to sell and like lobotomised, star-struck automatons we scurry along to the nearest sterile, over-lit shopping centre to hand over our hard-earned cash.
