While looking over the playlists on my iPod I noticed I have 3 versions of this song by 3 different artists, The Beatles, Jeff Healey and Peter Frampton. All 3 are good, but between them I prefer the Jeff Healey version over the other 2. Just curious to see how everyone here feels the others stack up.

Because I mistitled my thread. That's why.
Fix it for me? I'll give you a cookie!

i'm sure you've seen his other polls.Apparently not, otherwise he wouldn't have pointed out the obvious lack of effort on my part.

Come on. The original. They brought Eric Clapton in for the lead guitar.

I believe, and I could be wrong on this, that an Eric Clapton is an old, old, wooden ship used during the civil war era.

It's an English device that you attach to a guitar to make it sound better when it's played.

I thought it was an STD but now I don't know. Do STDs play guitar?
