Average Rating:
 Rating:  - A good place to start digging into the work of Eric ClaptonI was very apprehensive when I first listened to this, mostly because I don't really like Eric Clapton that much. To be honest, I just really didn't want to like this at all. But for whatever reason I ended up enjoying it to a certain degree. The first three songs are darn good. Had to Cry Today is a classic riff, and Well All Right is too, but I really prefer Can't Find My Way Home, a quaint little acoustic tune that is probably my favorite song on the album. The one even casual Clapton fans seem to know is Presence of the Lord, which really does nothing for me because the whole religious thing kind of doesn't sit well. But I guess the peak of the album is the final rocker/jam Do What You Like, which at times is very cool but probably could ...

I am only sorry that they did not record another one they were the best collection of musicians of the time. Rating: - the best track is do what you likeOk, I was around when this albumn came out. We loved Cream, and we loved Spencer Davis Group. The combination seemed perfect, and it was, just not long enough. As far as the Clapton song, Presence of the Lord, it sounds a lot like his later works, meaning, forget me, I am not a rock star anymore. A very whiny song, not even worth listening too. Winwood's songs are great, as always. Now, as far as the main bain of my contention, the drum solo in Do What You Like, what is everybody's problem???????? This is by far the 3rd best song on this album. Ginger Baker was probably the greatest rock drummer of all time, and this solo proved it. When everybody came in at the end of it, what a bang. The flip side sort of sucks, but the second side rocks. ...

Coming off the "Clapton Is God" era of his career, Clapton was changing direction and really not quite sure which way to go; thus this effort, the Layla album and After Midnight album before he had to quit to get sober and straight. Still, aspects of this are dated. But even these dated portions are great, if you make allowances for the times and attitudes of the day. And worthy of owning, too. Rating: - "Well All Right" please make sure you view the version with the 9 bonus tracks!,As the author of the Jefferson Airplane book "Take Me To A Circus Tent" I am often asked to write or talk about various 60's and 70's rock and roll recordings. Although it was devastating that Cream had broken up, Two-thirds of the band Eric Clapton and Ginger Baker surfaced along with Steve Winwood and Ric Grech in Blind Faith. Although there would only be one album it has left its mark as a must own for any fan of blues-rock and Clapton or Winwood. Please make sure you are viewing the 2CD version with the original LP and the nine bonus tracks (Including 1 CD of all Jams). The deluxe issue has such intense bonus material that it had to be extended to a two CD set. "Can't Find My Way Back Home" and "Presence ... Read More: |
