CLAPTON FEARS HE WON'T BE ABLE TO PERSUADE CALE TO TOUR

Guitar great ERIC CLAPTON fears his next tour will be limited to California and surrounding states - because they're the only places he'll be able to convince new collaborator JJ CALE to play.

Clapton, who recorded Cale classics AFTER MIDNIGHT and COCAINE, has teamed up with his blues hero for the first time on new album THE ROAD TO ESCONDIDO but he's not sure he can convince his pal to tour to promote it.

The Brit reveals grizzled bluesman Cale isn't fond of travelling and will only perform at venues he can drive to from his home in Escondido, California.

Clapton explains, "As long as we're in his neck of the woods, I think it will be agreeable to him. He doesn't like getting on buses or planes.

"He won't even go in the elevator. We're staying at the Four Seasons in LA, and his room is on the second floor."
