Clapton - Guitar gently weeps

Hi All,

Did Eric Clapton play lead guitar on the beatles song while my guitar gently weeps?

People have often told me that he did not?

Can someone please confirm the above?

Thankyou!

Eric Clapton played lead guitar on the studio version.

(George apparently invited Clapton to play on the track believing that Clapton's presence and involvement would assist during the recording sessions - which were highly-charged due to tension betwen band members.)

Apparently Clapton's appearance did help them to get serious, too.
