Clapton understood this immediately... Hendrix was invited to play in on a Cream set... he jumped in on Howlin' Wolf's "Killing Floor". Clapton said of this: He played just about every style you could think of, and not in a flashy way. I mean he did a few of his tricks, like playing with his teeth and behind his back, but it wasn't in an upstaging sense at all, and that was it ... He walked off, and my life was never the same again.
