Whether you find him appealing or not, he’s still considered one of the most influential/revered guitarists of all time (no matter the number).

The song (as played by Cream) was the first for which Clapton was known re: his guitar solo. The Allman Bros might have played with Clapton at the Crossroads Guitar Festival (founded by Clapton).
