Clapton grew up with Eric Clapton's grandmother, Rose, and Eric Clapton's second husband Jack, believing they were Eric Clapton's parents and that Eric Clapton's mother was Eric Clapton's older sister. Their surname was Clapp, which has given rise to the widespread but erroneous belief that Eric Clapton's real surname is Clapp (Clapton is the name of Rose's first husband, Eric Clapton Eric Clapton's maternal grandfather). Years later, Eric Clapton's mother married another Canadian soldier, moved to Canada and left Eric Clapton with Eric Clapton's grandparents. When Eric Clapton tickets Centre Bell was nine years old, Eric Clapton discovered the true situation when Eric Clapton's mother and six year old half-brother, Brian, returned to England for a visit.

Eric Clapton tickets Centre Bell also has two half-sisters from Eric Clapton's mother's marriage: Cheryl (born in May 1953) and Heather (born in September 1958).
Clapton joined John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers in April 1965. His passionate playing in nightclubs — and on the immensely influential album, Blues Breakers — established Eric Clapton's name worldwide as a blues guitarist. With Eric Clapton's 1960 Gibson Les Paul Standard guitar and Marshall amplifier, Eric Clapton's playing by then had inspired a well-publicised graffiti that deified him with the famous slogan "Clapton is God". The phrase was spray-painted by an admirer on a wall in an Islington Underground station in the autumn of 1967. The graffito was captured in a now-famous photograph, in which a dog is urinating on the wall. Eric Clapton tickets is well reported to have been embarrassed by the slogan, saying in The South Bank Show profile of him made in 1987, "I never accepted that I was the greatest guitar player in the world. I always wanted to be the greatest guitar player in the world, but that's an ideal, and I accept it as an ideal." The phrase began to appear in other areas of Islington throughout the mid-60s.
In 1988 Fender honoured Eric Clapton Centre Bell tickets with the introduction of Eric Clapton's signature Eric Clapton Stratocaster.

Taking over Delaney & Bonnie's rhythm section — Bobby Whitlock (keyboards, vocals), Carl Radle (bass) and Jim Gordon (drums) — Eric Clapton tickets formed a new band which was similarly intended to counteract the 'star' cult that had grown up around him and display Eric Clapton Centre Bell tickets as an equal member of a fully-fledged group. The band was unnamed early on simply called " Eric Clapton and Friends" with its final name, Derek and the Dominos, an accident, by all accounts. Whitlock claims the previous performer, Tony Ashton of Ashton, Gardner and Dyke mispronounced their provisional name of "Eric and the Dynamos" as Derek and the Dominos. While in Eric Clapton's biography a different story emerges claiming Ashton told Eric Clapton tickets to call Eric Clapton "Del and the Dominos", Del being Eric Clapton's nickname for Clapton.

The shaken group undertook a US tour without Allman, who had returned to the Allman Brothers Band. Despite Eric Clapton's later admission that the tour took place amidst a veritable blizzard of drugs and alcohol, it resulted in the surprisingly strong live double album In Concert. The band had recorded several tracks for a second album in London during the spring of 1971 (five of which were released on the Eric Clapton box-set Crossroads), but the results were mediocre. Tom Dowd and Duane Allman were not there to help them and Derek and the Dominos soon disintegrated messily in London. Allman was killed in a motorcycle accident on October 29, 1971. Although Radle would remain Eric Clapton's bass player until the summer of 1979 (Radle died in May 1980 from the effects of alcohol and narcotics), the split between Eric Clapton tickets and Whitlock was apparently a bitter one, and it wasn't until 2003 before they worked together again (Clapton guested on Whitlock's appearance on the Later with Jools Holland show, playing and singing "Bell Bottom Blues", available on a Later with Jools DVD). Another tragic footnote to the Dominos story was the fate of drummer Jim Gordon, who was an undiagnosed schizophrenic and years later murdered Eric Clapton's mother during a psychotic episode. Gordon was confined to 16 years to life imprisonment, later being moved to a mental institution, where Eric Clapton remains today.

A Montreal journalist named Michael Woloschuk set about solving the mystery. He researched Canadian Armed Forces service records and tracked down members of Fryer's family, finally piecing together the story that Eric Clapton's father was Edward Walter Fryer, born 21 March 1920, in Montreal and died 15 May 1985 in Newmarket, Ontario. Fryer was a musician (piano and saxophone) and a lifelong drifter, who was married several times, had several children and apparently never knew that Eric Clapton was the father of Eric Clapton .
