the Clapton font is really really unforgiveable

also Clapton in general is really unforgiveable...

also that Clapton is somehow managing to slightly peer DOWN in that photo is just FUCK OFF

the clapton looks like it was swiftly made with CorelDRAW v. 1.4
the neil looks like the hand-sharpied product of an unhinged mind you'd find in a salvation army five-for-a-buck pile
advantage: neil

though i guess the poll is about SWAG, and clapton's looking all pleased with himself, clearly on vacation on his estate on some island, so...
I'm only talking swag, Clapton's has swag, Neil's...not so much

Actually the only way I'd ever respect Eric Clapton even a little bit is if he changes the name of this album to I'M AN ASSHOLE
neil - "I wash born here, an I wash raished here, and dad gum it, I am gonna die here, an no sidewindin' bushwackin', hornswagglin' cracker croaker is gonna rouin me bishen cutter."

Love Neil, don't care for Clapton but gotta vote for the latter cause Neil's artwork here feels far more affectedly shitty. Clapton's is just a lapse in taste.

all these arguments against clapton ironically add to the evidence that he gives less of a fuck. young's cover is somewhat calculated while clapton is effortlessly and repulsively lame.
