Do you know the story of how the "Disraeli Gears" album got it's name? Apparently, a roadie or someone close to the band was talking about a ten speed bike, and how it had "derailer gears" only he didn't say "derailer" he said "disraeli" as in "Benjamin Disreali",...well, Clapton and the band thought it was so funny that they named the album they were working on,...."Disreali Gears",.....true story!
Another note: Clapton did the art work on the cover of Disreali Gears, he attended the same art school as another soon to be famous rock musician,....David Bowie,...who then was going by his given name, David Jones (like Davey Jones from the Monkee's), and that's why David Jones adopted the stage name of David Bowie,.... Another true story!
