Back Home – Eric ClaptonView More By Eric Clapton Our ReviewRetaining the easygoing, naturalistic air of 2004’s Me and Mr. Johnson, Back Home encompasses all the aspects of Eric Clapton’s latter-day career. There is the light R&B of “So Tired” and the relaxed gospel of “I’m Going Left.” His knack for sweet-natured pop continues with “Say What You Will,” while his longstanding reverence for blues is reflected in “Lost and Found.” Despite the variety of material, Back Home is ultimately a soul album; an unperturbed horn section and laid-back choir form a recurring motif, but the songs themselves fit easily into the patterns of soul. “Love Don’t Love Nobody,” “Piece of My Heart,” and “One Track Mind” will appeal to fans of Luther Vandross, Bettye LaVette and Jill Scott, as much as admirers of Clapton’s classic rock albums. The album’s centerpiece is Clapton’s gentle, poignant reading of George Harrison’s “Love Comes to Everyone,” which works as an understated tribute to his recently deceased friend. Feeling no need to masquerade as an artist in his 20s, Clapton shows it's possible to act one’s age, and deliver music that overlooks current trends in favor grace and good taste.. Customer ReviewsI Need to Hear that Sound (4 stars)Back in middle school, Eric Clapton changed my life. Up until then, I had listened to exclusively hard core gangsta rap. Than a tape trader friend of mine passed me along a copy of Slowhand and I quickly realized why people called him God. Shortly thereafter, Clapton participated in the legendary Unplugged series showing a different side to his already accomplished guitar repertoire. I have picked up every one of his new albums since then. W One of his Best! (5 stars) As musicians get older their music changes. One cannot expect an artist to compose the same type of songs for the rest of their lively hood. With that said this Eric Clapton Album is one of my favorites. From songs such as Back Home, One Day, and Love comes to Everyone one can tell that Eric Clapton has really matured and created music that is going to be twice as good when played live. Eric Clapton has not lost anything, he has gotten b Not Good, Not Bad either... (3 stars) I give Clapton the credit. I mean, face it. The man can't write another "461 Ocean Boulevard" or perform another amazing Unplugged show. There's also no way he's going to keep making tribute albums to Robert Johnson for the rest of his career. Admit it, theres some standout tracks on here. "So Tired" is a pretty good one to start out the album, and I think "Revolution" was a great take on reggae/dub. Good 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. That it took Clapton so long to go out on his own, however, was evidence of a degree of reticence unusual for one of his stature....
