Eric Clapton - I Shot The Sheriff - 1974
LYRICS: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fou_HD2S5KA
" I Shot the Sheriff " is a song written by Jamaican reggae musician Bob Marley and released in 1973 with his band the Wailers .
Eric Clapton recorded a cover version that was included on his 1974 album 461 Ocean Boulevard . His performance of the song adds soft rock to the reggae sound. Billboard described this version as being "a catchy goof of a winner" despite not containing a guitar solo. Cash Box called it a "smooth bluesy rocker with lots of guitar, keyboards and strong background harmonies." Record World said that Clapton is "firing straight from the hip, both vocally and riff-wise." Faring better in the charts, it peaked at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 , his only US number one to date. In 2003, Clapton's version was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame . - source
