And the nickname has something to do with him breaking a guitar on stage. He attempted to fix it right there on stage. While he did this, the crowd did a long slow hand clap.

His manager at the time turned "slow hand clap" into Slowhand, and it stuck.

At one point he auctioned off a bunch of guitars for his drug rehab facility. HRC got all the good ones. I know that either Brownie or Blackie were in the mix.
