Using the age and sex of a person instead of their name is a common convention among journalists when either they do not know or are not allowed to release a persons name.
Many are unaware that Eric Clapton is a self-proclaimed racist. Maybe he wasn't directly responsible for his son's death, but he sure found a way to massively benefit from it by commercializing the death of his son with insincere and hacky ballad. Maybe Clapton once had considerable technical skill, prior to his heroin addiction, but he was never innovative and stole everything he played from Black artists. And, if it wasn't obvious already, he is not very intelligent. By wasting effort trying to eliminate bootlegs, which is not possible, he stepped over a fortune to pick up a pittance, when myriads of intelligent artists have long recognized and proven that bootlegs of live shows are free marketing that massively expands the audience-base and helps drive record sales. He is an embarrassment to blues music. I'll never tolerate the sound of his lousy, unoriginal, repetitious, and uninspired aural vomit again.
