Video: Eric Clapton’s Birthday at The Rooster Tail Club
Actually, "Tears in Heaven" is another devastating father/son song. Clapton wrote it following the tragic death of his four-year-old son, Conor. The song would net Clapton Grammys for Record of the Year and Song of the Year in 1993.
Here is something you may not know…In 1978 after a concert here in Detroit, Eric Clapton went to party at the Rooster Tail….
It all happened in 1978, Eric Clapton found himself at the Rooster Tail in Detroit. The night quickly turned into an Eric Clapton birthday celebration.

Hey It’s Ryan, let me start off by saying…YES, I was born and raised in Wixom, Michigan although a lot of listeners like to joke that I am from Arizona. WCSX has always been my radio home, I have been at the station since I was a 23-year-old intern, co-host of Big Jim’s House, married with kids. Family and radio are what I love, but don’t get me started on golf!
Like some, I have become obsessed with golf and you can hear all about that on “The Ball Washer Pod” right here on WCSX. One of my other passions is helping out the Vets. Since coming to WCSX I have been apart of raising hundreds of thousands for local vet groups. Other than that, I am a goofy guy, loving life, my family and talking to you on the radio. Ryan writes about golf, family and what happens on “Big Jim’s House.”
