The 2-time Grammy nominee Eric Clapton called \u201cone of the great singer-songwriters\u201d joins us to talk about his 1970s classic "On and On," writing hits like the Oscar-winning \u201cSeparate Lives\u201d for Phil Collins, and the unexpected rootsy influences on his new album. Plus, he explains why his stepdad forbid him from playing guitar in the house; why he didn't like Barbra Streisand's version of his song; how he ended up getting his guitar smashed in Animal House; and why good songwriting requires heartbreak.\n\n\nAmerican Songwriter Podcast Network: https://americansongwriter.com/podcasts
