Eric Clapton - Eric Clapton - 1970 1970 | Mp3 320 kbps | 37:02 Eric Clapton is the eponymous debut solo album from Eric Clapton. It was released in August of 1970. The album that launched Clapton's solo career takes most of its cues from his then-recent collaboration with Delaney and Bonnie. In fact, Delaney produced the album, which explains its loose, jam-session feel that sometimes finds Clapton battling against a cast that includes guest stars Stephen Stills, Sonny Curtis, Rita Coolidge, Leon Russell, and Delaney and Bonnie. Sadly, it's also Clapton's last good LP (@artpepper's opinion). I loved Clapton--from The Yardbirds to Cream to Blind Faith to the emotional hurricane that was Derek and The Dominoes. But after this LP, Clapton turned into an FM staple--music to do your laundry by. The fire, the passion, the edge--all gone. Which makes this LP all the more valuable. Tracklist 01. Slunky 02. Bad Boy 03. Lonesome and a Long Way from Home 04. After Midnight 05. Easy Now 06. Blues Power 07. Bottle of Red Wine 08. Lovin' You Lovin' Me 09. I've Told You For the Last Time 10. Don't Know Why 11. Let It Rain

@Feddersen, it's OK but compared to what went before? It's just a bit too safe, too bland...
I remember my mother hearing it (I guess I was about 19) and she said 'Oh, that's nice...'.
Well, exactly. When I played Blind Faith doing 'Can't Find My Way Home' or Cream doing 'Strange Brew', she told me to turn it down.
421 OB was when Clapton turned into Robert Goulet...

You nailed it with that last comment. We're about the same age, and there is no question in my mind that Cream and Blind Faith was Clapton's best work. Thanks for this up though. It's better quality than what I had.

Thank you sir!
Can't agree that this is Eric's last good album.
Layla, Journeyman and From The Cradle are all better, not to mention some of the live albums he's released. You're right about his lurch towards MOR of course, but I'd venture to suggest this first solo album was actually where that began. Aside from Let It Rain and maybe Slunky it hasn't got much of the wow factor about it. There are worse songs on 461 Ocean Boulevard but a few better ones as well - I'd give it the edge over this.
