Anythoughts? I find the list Rolling Stone offers is a little more complete.

The digs against Clapton are bogus. Clapton is one of the great musicians, playing perfectly and with emotion. Sure, Al Dimeola is a good guitar player with the runs and more of the pinky, which I also use a lot, but Clapton is as fast as anyone, and he plays with great emotion and expressiveness, also doing unique and beautiful arrangements of songs. Clapton, like many artists, has hit creative lulls, but the idea he left it in the Layla recording studio is nonsense. His unplugged Tears in Heaven was from the 1990s, From the Cradle is a fantastic blues album recorded live in the mid 1990s, Riding with the King is from 2000 and has Clapton's trademark fluid, expressive, beautiful playing, also recorded basically live, and Clapton's awesome chord work is also on display. Clapton's tours are going strong and he remains a leading rock guitar player and with many of the older Blues greats dying or slowing down a whole lot, a preeminent Blues artist. The guy who wrote this is supposed to be a musician?
