Eric Clapton has unveiled a new Claymation video for his cover of the classic Xmas hit ‘White Christmas’ which you can watch above. The video tells the story of a young blues fanatic (who looks a lot like Clapton) going to see a blues giant and dreaming of getting a guitar for Christmas. The story is not far from the truth for the legendary musician himself. “Almost every Christmas, my wife Melia gives me a guitar,” he recently told Rolling Stone.

“Sometimes I’ve just hinted at it — if you want to know what I want for Christmas” The legendary guitarist’s fiery new version of the much-loved seasonal hit features on his new album, Happy Xmas, which was released on 12 October and immediately topped Billboard’s Holiday Albums Chart.

That LP was recorded at a Yuletide concert the previous December to mark 30 years of the Special Olympics, and featured Clapton playing on ‘Christmas Blues,’ ‘Christmas Tears,’ Tracy Chapman’s ‘Give Me One Reason,’ ‘Merry Christmas Baby’ and the encore of ‘Santa Claus Is Coming To Town.’ Explore our.
