Eric Clapton (Remastered) – Eric ClaptonView More By Eric Clapton Our ReviewUpon leaving the often rough and tumble sound of Cream, Eric Clapton embraced a more laid-back style encompassing elements of soul, acoustic blues and country music. Though he might still conjure emotionally wracked moments — think Layla — Clapton’s self-titled solo debut set the template for much of his future work. Though reveling in the sheer musicality of the R&B-drenched Delaney and Bonnie band, which provided much of its backing group, Eric Clapton’s quiet also tapped into the guitarist’s pain and yearning. (Play the lovely “Let It Rain” the next time you’re in a restless mood.) Surely his command of the music, though, lent some comfort.

Of all his albums, his first solo joint is concise, groovy, electric, soulful, and beautiful. Released in 1970, this album sheds the histronics of Cream and the noodling of Blind Faith. But to add further context, one can consider EC the sister album to Derek and the Domino's Layla and Other BiographyBorn: March 30, 1945 in Ripley, Surrey, EnglandGenre: Rock Years Active: '60s, '70s, '80s, '90s, '00s, '10s By the time Eric Clapton launched his solo career with the release of his self-titled debut album in mid-1970, he was long established as one of the world's major rock stars due to his group affiliations — the Yardbirds, John Mayall's Bluesbreakers, Cream, and Blind Faith — which had demonstrated his claim to being the best rock guitarist of his generation.
