Hello Brian and all - my name is David Gourlay and after being a devoted fan of Eric Clapton’s now for 25 yrs (wow time flies), my wife got me a beautiful acoustic guitar recently and I am in the process of finally trying to learn and so thrilled to see such a wonderful resource rich website to support my goal.

I live in Ottawa, Canada’s capital and while a teenager, lived in London, UK where I was introduced to Eric’s music and have not looked back - 20 concerts later in London at the Albert Hall, Chicago, Toronto, Ottawa among others (not to mention the recent Crossroads Festival this past June), I am still as passionate about his music and the blues that he has so well embraced.

I am not really sure how deep I will get into the lessons with work and life, but I am certainly committed to it and look forward to exchanging ideas with others on here.

Hey David, always nice to meet other Clapton fanatic.  I too have been a huge fan for around 25 years (although the Journeyman album is what really pushed me over the top) - that’s still one of my all time favorite albums.  Seeing EC at the Royal Albert Hall is something I’ve always wanted to do but never had the chance so color me jealous on that one. 


Keep picking brother smile
