Eric Clapton may be retiring from the road, but according to a recent interview with Rolling Stone, he doesn’t intend to quit making music anytime soon.

The only trouble, according to Clapton, is that he’s having trouble writing new music.

“I’m just lazy,” the guitarist explained. “When I get to ‘What am I going to do for that bit?’ I stop and turn on the TV. I’m easily distracted. What I’ve done a lot is written songs, then forgotten them. I put them down as a voice memo, on my phone, then I lose the memo.”

He did, however, reveal that he has some new original songs that he hasn’t lost.

On July 29th, Clapton release a tribute album – The Breeze: An Appreciation of JJ Cale – available for pre-order now on iTunes and Amazon.
