[Fischler, Sol (NBC)]

Hi fellow 'Slowhanders'

it of interest in the arcane and minutiae aspect of God... 



Clapton unplugs his Venice, California residency 


Eric Clapton has put his Venice beach house on the market at just under $1.5
million.  The legendary British rocker decided to sell his home of four
years because he needs more space for his growing family. 

           The ocean-view house, designed by Arata Isozake and built in
1986, has one bedroom and two bathrooms in about 2100 square feet.  The
living room has a 30-foot cathedral ceiling, skylights and floor-to-ceiling
windows, which open onto a Japanese bamboo garden.  The master bedroom has a
20-foot cathedral ceiling.  The house is a few steps from the beach.
Clapton also has homes in England, Antigua and two homes in France. 

           Clapton, Sting, Sarah McLachlan and Barbra Streisand recently
donated songs to a new compilation to raise funds for 'Save the Children'.
The set is due out Tuesday from Atlantic Records. 

           Clapton, in his mid-50's, is in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
The rock-blues guitarist and lead vocalist is a multiple Grammy-winning
songwriter and he has worked on the scores of many movies, including the
three 'Lethal Weapon' films.  Clapton was also musical director of 'Concert
for George,' the film tribute to George Harrison, his late Beatle friend.
