Huey (on phone): No, I'm looking for Clarence Carter...uh-huh, Carter. You never heard "Strokin'"? It's blues... What about Johnnie Taylor? No Johnnie Taylor? What about Bobby "Blue" Bland? Look, I need a cheap gift for my Granddad, and he likes the blues. What blues you got? Erik Clapton?! I said blues!! Don't make me come down there and smack somebody...I have stress issues!
Actually, you can – you can go with any of the actual blues artists Hughey mentions (plus 1000s more) instead of English boys trying to sound like said artists. Clapton is a great rock guitarist; he’s maybe a fair blues guitarist.
