sorry dude but that's about the worst example of proving clapton's worth that you could have chosen.
the whole premise of 'i shot the sheriff' was to rise up against the british colonists who were turning jamaicans against each other. hence the whole point of shooting the sheriff (the brit appointed to bring 'civilized' order to the island) and not the deputies (fellow jamaicans). clapton was some middle class white brit kid who desperately wanted people to think he was from the poor side of the tracks while enjoying the benefits of his social status ($$$ for drugs and guitars). this is quite possibly the most contrived cover song in rock music.
