A revealing letter from Eric Clapton to Pattie Boyd, in black ink on The Northfield Hilton, 5500 Crooks Road, Troy, Michigan hotel stationery, the original envelope post-marked Troy, Michigan, 17 June 1982, and addressed to Mrs. Clapton, Hurtwood Edge, Clapton writes Hullo Darling..... here I am! and professes to be in good spirits on tour I am very well and happy in my work... The shows are going well and I am playing with an energy I had forgotten I had, he goes on to identify his musical limitations and intentions I feel I have come to the edge of what I know, that is, that I have got to starting [sic] learning some new inroads to my music in order to play freely what I hear in my head....., and admits a touching preoccupation with thoughts of Pattie I miss you so much, and I picture you in my head all the time, doing lovely things, silly things, or just being you, before betraying his irritation with infuriating young whippersnapper Pete Townshend's interview in Rolling Stone, signing off I love you dearly, write to me!! love El xxxx
