You want to see Clapton with one of the best drummers alive, that would be Steve Gadd !!!

Ginger Baker was drummer of the year in Playboy one year .. if memorie serves me .. Looking at him now I think,, what was the big deal . but that was a long times ago and was even cutting edge. Alot has happened since then .. I remember funk had alot to do with it ,,, drummers got funky .. Then there was fussion ..drummers played off time,, jazz/rock started getting very intteresting ... so many great drummers now ... I like the guy who plays for Dave Mathews .. very tight ,,,he does alot of little things ... very tasteful .. nice back and forth between bass and snare .. some times almost a drum core ..vibe ..
