Clapton earned three Grammy Awards for the album, including Album of the Year, Best Rock Male Vocal Performance and Best Rock Song, and Tears in Heaven" earned three more. But, apart from the awards what it is really astounding is the fact that he could play live without plugging in the instruments, after the 80s, a decade plenty of frills.

Claps for Clapton is the result of these musicians' large background playing acoustic music at many night clubs as well as a passion for the study of the fingerpicking technique carried out by both band guitarists.
