📖 In November 1967, Eric, already guitarist and founding member of the band Cream (considered the first supergroup in history), released “Disraeli Gears” album. Conceived in a musical era dominated by psychedelia, it has become a socio-cultural reference. One of the two singles taken from this album was “Sunshine of your love” (recorded in May of that same year), which contains one of the best riffs in modern music and a cornerstone for the birth of new musical genres such as heavy metal.
Based on the blues scale with its diminished fifth, it presents the listener with a very rough sound of guitar and bass in unison that makes it sound even heavier. In addition to the ingenious main riff, Clapton introduces the well-known “woman tone”, lowering the tone of the guitar with the pickup in the neck position.
Eric used his well-known Gibson SG, nicknamed “The Fool,” for the recording of the album on most of the tracks like this one. In Clapton's words: “I used the Fool guitar on Disraeli Gears, and from then on, really, a lot of the time. It came with the sideways tremolo on it, which I took apart, but I kept the bridge and the tailpiece. I never liked tremolos; I've never been able to stand the bloody things. Eventually I put a stop tailpiece on it”.
I'll allow myself the license to have used my Stratocaster for this recording, the same model of guitar Eric has used for performing the song live in recent decades; also using the neck pickup to emulate the "Woman Tone" sound in the solo.
This track has been my choice to start the series of Clapton’s revisited covers, both for the relevance that the song has acquired within blues-rock and for the many nuances of the lead guitar.
I hope you enjoy it!
